He played for India in 463 ODIs and 200 Test matches, totaling 18426 and 15921 runs in the formats respectively.
In December 2012, Tendulkar called his time in the 50-over format, that is the ODIs, although he kept playing the traditional format of the game for an additional year. Tendulkar ultimately bid adieu to international cricket in November 2013 after his spectacular 200th Test.
He currently is a member of the Mumbai Indians family at the Indian Premier League and mentors the current generation of players.

In his second game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, the youngster managed to pick his maiden IPL wicket in the form of Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
