Sachin TENDULKER'S first test victory in his very first test match as Captain when India beat Australia at the Ferozshah Kotla in New Delhi in the first ever Gavaskar-Border trophy test match played from the 10-14th of October 1996. The match will always be remembered for Nayan Mongia's 152 which the wicket keeper batsman scored as an opener and for which he was awarded with the man of the match.
His first test victory came during the 'Navratri' season a period of nine nights during which people celebrate by dancing and playing dandia or garba which is a form of group dance and worshipping Godess Durga. The festival is particularly popular in Calcutta, Maharashtra, Gujarat and Karnataka.
The 10th day is celebrated as Dussera a day which symbolises the victory of good over evil as Lord Ram returned to his Kingdom Ayodhya after his 14 year exile and his victory in the battle with the king of Sri Lanka Ravana. After winning the test match Sachin said "this win is a gift by the team to the cricket fans all over India on the occasion of Navratri."
All cricket+sachin's Fans of the world enjoyed this great moments.
