Sachin Tendulkar's autobiography, Playing It My Way, will be released in the UK on November 6.

Tendulkar retired in November 2013, bringing an end to a 24-year international career during which he became the highest run-scorer and century-maker in Tests and ODIs.

"I knew that agreeing to write my story would need me to be completely honest, as that's the way I have always played the game," Tendulkar said. "It would require talking about a number of aspects I have not shared in public before.

"So here I am, at the end of my final innings, having taken that last walk back to the pavilion, ready to recount as many incidents as I can remember since first picking up a cricket bat as a child in Mumbai thirty-five years ago."
