The history of Indian cricket has some titles that have been scripted in gold letters and  Sunil Gavaskar is one of those titles. He's revealed his knacks of ideal slide fielding, the best opening batsman, wicket-keeper, official and a commentator. He has outshone his values in each and every market of cricket, especially in Evaluation cricket where he set several records, that took excellent guts to transcend and some of which are still untouched. The guy has ever established a solid base to the team during his busy career, capable of playing almost any role in the team and thus providing his value assistance to bag victory streaks and as commentators say"When he hits, it stays hit".

Nicknamed as'Sunny', Gavaskar started displaying his batting dash when he was in college. He was able to polish his batting skills along with his mother and a houseboy at the mid-afternoon of holidays and captained his school St. Xavier's High School staff on many occasions. He debuted against Karnataka in 1968 season but left a duck which raised several questions upon his selection at the nation team and it was also claimed that he has been selected by the title of his uncle. However, Gavaskar knew what was needed to prove his worth and Garmin Express not Syncing in the next match against Rajasthan; he also scored 114, which makes two additional consecutive centuries that led him to get a place in the national group to play against West Indies at 1970. And, hence the legend began.

It was surprising that Gavaskar had to miss his very first Test match against West Indies because of an infected fingernail but he didn't miss the chance to aid his team with 65 and 67 not out in the next match, contributing to the first-ever success against West Indies. Gavaskar was extremely calmed and aimed in the first phases that helped him a great deal to score overall 774 runs in his debut series, being the first Indian to evaluate four consecutive centuries in one test series with which he cemented his position at the national squad for the global series beforehand. A Trinidad Calypso singer was so fascinated with his performance that he composed a song in his honor. A piece of his tune is as follows-

• It was Gavaskar
• The Actual master
• Just like a wall
• We couldn't out Gavaskar whatsoever
• Not at all
• You know the West Indies couldn't out Gavaskar at all.
