00:00This player scored only 1 run in his first 6 years of his career
00:06Then his luck changed and he scored 6 runs
00:10Sachin also believes that this player has a lot of talent
00:15From India to Australia, this player has won many trophies
00:20Cricket is played on a 22-gauge strip
00:22In between, the cricketers undergo a tough test
00:25And the one who passes this test, cricket makes him great
00:28There were many great cricketers in the cricket world
00:30Who wrote about their greatness on this 22-gauge strip
00:33Even the world accepted them
00:36This pitch has made them great with the tests of
00:38Bradman, Gavaskar, Border, Sachin, Jaisurya, Ponting
00:41And many other legends
00:44Along with this, the story of cricket is also very strange
00:47If a player starts his career in an explosive way
00:50Then a player has to wait for years for this explosion
00:54Sometimes, to reach the door of greatness
00:57He has to prove himself every time
01:00Today, we are going to tell you about a legend
01:03Who scored only 1 run in his first 6 years of his career
01:06And when he returned, he scored 6 runs
01:09Later, he became the captain of the same team
01:11For which he worked hard for the first 6 years
01:16Atta Pattu scored only 1 run in his first 6 years of his career
01:21There has been a cricketer in the history of cricket
01:23Whose luck remained upset for the first 6 years
01:26And then that player proved himself
01:28And made his name in the list of the best batsmen in the world
01:32Yes, we are talking about the right-handed batsman
01:35And the former Sri Lankan captain Marvin Atta Pattu
01:37The start of Sri Lankan cricket's career
01:39Was a test series against India
01:41The start of Atta Pattu's cricket
01:43Was like a nightmare
01:45Atta Pattu was very successful in his debut test
01:47And he got out on 0 in both the overs
01:50After that, what happened was what should have happened
01:52That is, Marvin got out of the team
01:54But Atta Pattu did not give up
01:56And he kept working hard to make a place in the team
01:58Slowly, 2 years passed
02:00And then again the eyes of the fans fell on Atta Pattu
02:03And he was again included in the team
02:05This time, the Australian team reached Sri Lanka
02:08And became part of the Marvin team in the Colombo test
02:10But what is this?
02:12The same thing happened with Marvin that happened 2 years ago
02:15That is, once again success was at hand
02:17In the second test of his career
02:19Atta Pattu scored only 1 run in the first over
02:21And in the second over, he scored only 1 run
02:23From here, it seemed that Atta Pattu's career would end
02:26During the first 17 overs of the test career
02:28Atta Pattu was out on 2 in 6 overs
02:31Slowly, time passed
02:33And Marvin started to improve himself more
02:35But fate was always with Marvin Atta Pattu
02:38In 1996, time came back
02:41And this time Atta Pattu also took a decision
02:43Either come or go
02:45This time, Atta Pattu was not in the mood to let go of the opportunity
02:49He had to wait for 18 test matches to make his mark
02:53At the opportunity he got in 1998, Atta Pattu stood up
02:57And then he did not look back
02:59But now, the mark was yet to come in the test career
03:02Anyway, Atta Pattu was now full of energy
03:05And confidence made way
03:07Then came the year 1997
03:09And the Sri Lankan team came to India
03:11On the field of Mohali, the Indian and Sri Lankan teams were face to face
03:14And Atta Pattu was playing his 18th test match
03:17As soon as he reached the field, Atta Pattu looked around
03:20And started to face the Indian team
03:22For this match, time had written for Marvin
03:24For whom he had always been worthy
03:26But due to bad luck, he was not able to meet him
03:30In this match, Marvin Atta Pattu scored hundreds of goals
03:34For the first half of his test career
03:36After this, Atta Pattu was not going to stop
03:38If we look at it in real terms, this legend's career had just started
03:42After this, Atta Pattu scored 6 runs in Test Cricket
03:46If we talk about his international career
03:48Atta Pattu played 90 matches in Test Cricket
03:50And scored 5502 runs
03:52Out of which, 16 wickets and 17 half wickets were included
03:55In this period, he scored 37.52 runs in Test Cricket
03:59In one day, Atta Pattu was the leader of Sri Lanka
04:02In this format, he played 269 matches
04:05And scored 8529 runs
04:08Out of which, 11 wickets and 69 half wickets were included
04:12In 2007, this cricket legend said goodbye to cricket
04:15But before that, for the coming generations
04:17He wrote an inspiring sentence
