Playing It My Way is the autobiography of former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar. It was launched on 5 November 2014 in Mumbai.[3][4][5] The book summarises Tendulkar's early days, his 24 years of international career and aspects of his life that have not been shared publicly.[6] It entered the Limca Book of Records for being the best selling adult hardback across both fiction and non-fiction categories.[7] In India, it broke the record set by Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs for being the most pre-ordered biographical book, amassing the record by 20,000 orders.[8]
