Sachin Tendulkar's Autobiography Releasing Nov 6

MUMBAI: Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar's "Playing It My Way - My Autobiography" will be released Nov 6, the publishers announced.

"I knew that agreeing to write my story would need me to be completely honest, as that is the way I have always played the game. It would require talking about a number of aspects I have not shared in public before.

"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 35 years ago," Tendulkar said about his book.

The autobiography is being published by Hodder & Stoughton and will be simultaneously released globally through Hachette India.

"Over the past 25 years, Sachin Tendulkar's colossal batting triumphs for India have singled him out as one of the greatest players in cricket history. He is universally admired and respected and, most impressively, remains a very modest man," said Hodder & Stoughton editor Roddy Blookfield.

The darling of millions of cricket lovers worldwide, Tendulkar retired from the game in 2013 after playing for 24 years. The most celebrated Indian cricketer and the highest run-scorer in the history of international cricket, Tendulkar was honoured with Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian award, on the last day of his cricket career.
