Thirteen years ago, when he made his debut, it was with the promise of great
things to come.
Ahead of him loomed an Everest of runs.
He started the climb with a heavy burden -- given his prodigious promise, international expectation was that he would scale the summit, perhaps even create fresh summits for cricketers to aspire to.
As he straps on his pads for his 100th Test, we present the statistical mass of his achievements till date.
