It was the winter of 1989 when a 16-year old Sachin Tendulkar made his debut for India against Pakistan, their fiercest rival. He came armed with an already formidable opposition and began the journey that scaled a summit that a few would imagine was possible.
Twenty years later, Sachin Tendulkar is a legend among his peers and a colossal that history would place on a heady pedestal. He still plays the game with limitless enthusiasm and continues to enchant.
CNN-IBN brings you the man himself, his unmatched success and the hunger that continues to drive him on in Tendulkar@20 in his own words.
CNN-IBN: Are you still as excited as ever to begin a new season of cricket?
Sachin Tendulkar: I am always excited to play cricket.

Ever wondered what is it that takes a backyard cricketer to end up being an
international cricketer? Is it the encouragement he gets from his parents? Is
it the environment that he grows up in? Is it the exposure to the sport at an
early age that creates the passion for the sport? Is it the naturally hand eye
co-ordination that some are extremely blessed with? Is it just the mental make
up and the testing practice regimes that make a cricketer of world class? There
is no single answer to this. It has to be a mix of several qualities that makes
a top player
