Who is India’s greatest ever batsman — Sunil Manohar Gavaskar or Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar? Indian cricketing circles have been abuzz with this debate for two decades since the time Tendulkar stepped into international cricket in 1989, two years after Gavaskar called it quits.

Both Gavaskar and Tendulkar have been given the sobriquet little master for their short stature. And both Mumbaikars broke practically all the world batting records in their time – be it that of the highest number of Test runs or hundreds.
