Now that Indian cricket team has completed a test series in Australia and piled up more than 700 runs in the fourth test match, shall we talk cricket? When we talk about Indian Cricket, we surely think of Little Masters. Sunil Gavaskar for cricket lovers of seventies and eighties and Sachin Tendulkar for many of us.

Now ready to meet the Sachin Tendulkar today? He may have many records against his name in the record book. And that itself may be a record! How many of them do you remember? Let's begin.

1. You need not go too far in past to answer this. What is the highest individual score for Sachin in Test Cricket?

2. You may not need to go to Karachi to find an answer to this. Name the country Sachin debuted his Test Cricket career.

3. In the scorecards, you often see Sachin's name as 'S R Tendulkar'. Conventionally, for Indian names, the middle initial or name is used for father's name. Do you know what does 'R' stand for in 'S R Tendulkar'?
