Born on April 24, 1973, the Mumbai batsman has scored a record 100 international centuries - 49 in One-Day Internationals and 51 in Tests - and is the first of only four cricketers to receive the highest national sporting award, the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna, in 1997/98. The other three cricketers are Mahendra Singh Dhoni (2007/08), current Indian skipper Virat Kohli (2018) and Rohit Sharma (2020).
Tendulkar received Bharat Ratna -- India's highest civilian honour – in 2013 after his retirement from international cricket.
Tendulkar, who was admitted in a Mumbai hospital as a precautionary measure after he tested positive for COVID-19 late last month, had returned home on April 8 to begin his recuperation.
