ABOUT THIS BOOK

Gavaskar is the idol of millions the world over. His magic with the bat created several records and won the hearts of as many. Even his severest critics had to concede that he was indeed the Little Master.

AUTHOR OF THE BOOK

Gavaskar has played Test cricket for India all over the world, besides playing regularly for the Ranji Trophy, Irani cup and Duleep Trophy. He remains one of cricket’s best-known gentlemen. Readers and cricket lovers will remember how often and how generously he praises other cricketers and how modest he is about his own achievements. With 34 Test centuries to his credit, Gavaskar surpassed Sir Donald Bradman’s 35-year-old record of 29 Test centuries. He has been a regular contributor to various newspapers and magazines, while also being a commentator on television.
