Tendulkar goes down as one of the greatest batsmen to ever play the sport. He has several records to his name, but one of the most iconic and untouched feats of Tendulkar's is the 100 international centuries. Having played 200 Test matches for India, the right-hander had scored 15,921 runs, including 51 centuries and 68 half-centuries to his name

The legendary Sachin Tendulkar was on Thursday honoured with the unveiling of his portrait at Lord’s Cricket Ground ahead of the third Test match between India and England.
"A very special morning unveiling the new Sachin Tendulkar portrait in the Lord’s museum," read the post shared by the official social media handle of Lord's Cricket Ground.
Calling it a 'huge honour', Tendulkar said, "In 1983, when India won the World Cup, it was my first introduction to Lord’s. I saw our captain, Kapil Dev, lift the trophy. That moment sparked my cricketing journey. Today, with my portrait going up inside the Pavilion, life feels like it’s come full circle. When I reflect on my career, it brings a smile to my face. This is truly special."
