In a surprising and lesser-known chapter of cricket history, Sachin Tendulkar, who would go on to become one of India's most celebrated cricketers, briefly fielded for Pakistan during a festival match at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.
Tendulkar was just a 15-year-old prodigy, not yet the cricketing legend he would later become. The incident took place during Pakistan's 1987 tour of India when Javed Miandad and Abdul Qadir left the field during the lunch break, Sachin was called upon to serve as a substitute fielder for Imran Khan's team.
