"I tried it out it; it felt good and played with it in my first ever one-dayer. I scored that innings of 100 in 37 balls with the same bat," said Afridi, who was 16 years and 217 days when he entered the record books on October 4, 1996.

10 Reasons why I hate Sachin Tendulkar
2. Every time that I think of becoming an atheist, he gets into the nineties and I have no choice but to pray!
3. Every time I take a resolution not to bite my nails, he gets into the nineties and I am left with no choice but to chew on my nails!
4. He keeps all the records to himself!
5. He makes a lot more money and fame than me!
6. He costs way too much on ‘super selector’ but since I have to pick him, the rest of my team gets weakened!
7. During a match, invariably when I want to go to the bathroom, he hits a boundary and hence I have no choice but to sit and watch the replay!
8. As soon as I convince myself that God does not exist, he plays a straight drive and proves me wrong!
9. He brings the whole country to a standstill whenever he bats!
And the last and the biggest reason why I hate Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar …
10. He is going to retire sometime in the future!!!
