00:00It was November 10, 1991.

00:02The stage was set at the iconic Eton Gardens, Kolkata, and the air crackled with excitement.

00:08Over 90,000 passionate fans ruled as the young Sachin Tendulkar, just 18 years old, walked

00:15out to bat against South Africa in their historic return to international cricket after 22 years.

00:22What followed was a dazzling display of pure class and fearless stroke play.

00:26Sachin Tendulkar crafted a magnificent 62 runs of 73 balls, decorated with eight crisp boundaries

00:34and a towering six, a signature flick over the ropes of Richard Snell that sent the crowd

00:39into a frenzy.

00:40Every shot spoke of confidence, timing, and a promise.

00:44A glimpse of the genius the world was yet to fully witness.

00:48So let's relive that magical evening, the rise of young Sachin Tendulkar at Eton Gardens.

00:53So definitely coming into play, and as a consequence, overbalancing, losing control of the ball,

00:59and the ball pitching leg, hitting leg style.

01:02Disaster for India, 3 for 2, and the game now wide open, suddenly in the space of 3 overs,

01:12South Africa.

01:13Superb spell of bowling.

01:14It's 3 for 33, and the gentle roll of the wrist, Tendulkar's last scoring stroke.

01:24This time a gentle jab, it's been stopped by Cook just inside the fence.

01:30An improvised stroke on Tendulkar.

01:33Cover point to cover, an extra cover mid-off, and a sweeper cover on the offside.

01:38Macmillan comes in to go to Tendulkar, and Tendulkar drives with a flourish, in the weave.

01:47Clive Weiss cannot cut it off, the crowd applauds, they're on their feet, and it's action.

01:55Yes, and what a super shot.

01:58Full flow of the bat, getting right to the pitch of that ball, and stroking it.

02:03Have a look at it.

02:08Oh, beautiful shot.

02:10Right there, in the weave, from the meat of the blade.

02:15Macmillan again.

02:18This time first bound.

02:20Tendulkar, wickets falling, runs being scored.

02:23It's all happening.

02:26That's the 50 of the Indian innings.

02:31Sachin Tendulkar, sure and true, gets the gap between mid-wicker and mid-on.

02:38There's really nothing that can stop him, that gap between Hudson and Snell, so large.

02:45And Macmillan really coming in for a bit of pasting.

02:49Have a look at that shot, Anupam. Look at that. Superb deflection.

02:56But still such a score.

02:58Work with manpin.

03:07We are proud to say,

03:14Oh, no question about it.

03:41Absolute...

04:04What a marvelous automation. All the tackles left over from Diwali have been used up.

04:11In the 21st offer, India needing 178 to win, now 95 for 4.

04:26Tendulkar has just made his 15, 63 deliveries.

04:30I'm ready, the non-striker.

04:3215.
