Sachin Tendulkar to get BCCI Lifetime Achievement Award

Tendulkar, known for his iconic career and record-breaking runs in Test and ODI formats, continues to be a symbol of excellence in international cricket.

Sachin Tendulkar to get BCCI Lifetime Achievement Award

The legendary Sachin Tendulkar, renowned for his iconic batting records and profound impact on international cricket, will be honored with the BCCI’s Lifetime Achievement Award at the Board's annual gala on Saturday.

At 51 years old, Tendulkar has played 664 international matches for India and holds the record for the most Test and ODI runs in cricket history.

"Yes, he will be the recipient of the C K Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award for the year 2024," a Board source confirmed to PTI. His 200 Test appearances and 463 ODIs remain unmatched in the history of the game. Over his illustrious career, he accumulated 15,921 runs in Tests and a staggering 18,426 in ODIs.

Though he played only one T20 International, Tendulkar’s career is defined by his remarkable achievements across formats.

In 2023, the award was presented to former India head coach Ravi Shastri and wicketkeeping great Farokh Engineer.

Regarded as the greatest batter of his era, Tendulkar was not just known for his run-scoring feats but also for being a symbol of cricketing excellence.

He made his debut at the age of 16 in 1989 against Pakistan and went on to enjoy a career that spanned more than two decades.

Apart from his batting records, Tendulkar was also a pivotal figure in India’s 2011 World Cup-winning team, marking his sixth and final appearance in the prestigious tournament.

At his peak, the sight of Tendulkar walking out to bat was enough to captivate an entire nation. His wicket was the most coveted among opposition teams, many of whom admitted that Tendulkar was the only Indian batter capable of intimidating them.

Tendulkar will be the 31st recipient of the C K Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award, which was established in 1994 in honor of India’s first captain, Col. C K Nayudu, who also made significant contributions as a cricket administrator.

Nayudu’s extraordinary 47-year-long first-class career, which spanned from 1916 to 1963, remains a world record.
