Recollecting his exploits at the theater of some of his memorable innings, Sachin Tendulkar said everyone of his outings at the Eaden Gardens had been special for him.
"I always have very fond memories of Eden Gardens right from the day I first played here (in 1991)," said Tendulkar
Tendulkar was controversially run out in a Test against Pakistan at the Eden in 1999 that led to play being held up for about three hours due to crowd trouble, and he said he would always cherish the vibrant atmosphere inside the stadium whenever India played there.
"I've seen many good moments of my life and have spent my maximum time there. I would love to capture the moment of going out to bat with a packed stadium and the roaring applause.
"I wish if I could capture the photo with the lively sound around. It would be a great moment to capture," said the 36-year-old who had played nine Tests and 12 ODIs at the Eden.
He said crowd support at the Eden was a major contributing factor for the Indian team's success at this venue.
"The support that we have received here over the years has been truly special. The crowd has always been right behind us. they had a major contribution in Indian team being successful."
