    him to be the God of Cricket.
    1. Padma Vibhushan, Indias second highest civilian award, 2008.
    2. Rajiv Gandhi Awards Sports: 2005

    7. Arjuna Award, by the Government of India in recognition of his outstanding
    achievement in Cricket, 1994.
    8. Player of the tournament in 2003 Cricket World Cup
    He was also the part of ICC World ODI XI in 2004 & 2007. He has the highest number of Man
    of the Match & Man of the Series awards under his belt. And when it comes to runs, it is
    better to count the stars in the sky of a starry night. Sachin Tendulkar has piled up the most
    number of runs in Tests, as well as ODI format on the Cricket. He has highest number of
    centuries scored in both the formats.
