Also his tally of 100 international centuries sits at the top of the list. He retired in 2013 from international cricket in an emotional farewell at Wankhede that made the whole country emotional. He also received Bharat Ratna- India’s highest civilian honour in 2013 and became the youngest recipient to receive the honour.
