The book has been co-authored by renowned cricket historian and media personality Boria Majumdar.


“I knew that agreeing to write my story would need me to be completely honest, as that’s the way I have always played the game. It would require talking about a number of aspects I have not shared in public before,” said Tendulkar in a press release issued by the publishers.

“So here I am, at the end of my final innings, having taken that last walk back to the pavilion, ready to recount as many incidents as I can remember since first picking up a cricket bat as a child in Mumbai thirty-five years ago,” Tendulkar added.

“My autobiography will be available on Nov 6th Excited,” Tendulkar tweeted.

India's most decorated cricketer retired from Test cricket on November 17 last year after a two-Test series against the West Indies. Tendulkar's last Test, which also happened to be his 200th Test was played at the Wankhede Stadium in front of his home crowd.
