Cricketers in India usually grow up dreaming of playing at Lord’s one day. And a few Indian cricketers may indeed made their Lord’s appearance something to cherish.

Wondering who made this statement? Clue: It is a Sri Lankan fast bowler who has now retired from all forms of cricket.

Sachin Tendulkar had a unique experience and for one, it had not having to do with breaking his own cricket records. Instead his presence at the first ever Indian Formula 1 Grand Prix was almost as important as the race itself.
