Tendulkar and Waugh joined the likes of Dennis Lillee and Adam Gilchrist as inductees at a gala
dinner at the Sydney Cricket Ground on October 29.
"There could be no more principled and
deserving individuals in the game than Sachin
and Steve," said Bradman Foundation Executive
Director Rina Hore.
"Were Sir Donald to still be alive I'm sure he would unhesitatingly applaud their recognition at
the ground where his ambition to play Test cricket was first kindled."
Tendulkar will be just the third Indian and fourth non-Australian to be inducted following Sunil
Gavaskar, Rahul Dravid and Sir Richard Hadlee.
Both men enjoyed impressive records at the SCG, with Tendulkar scoring three centuries from
five Tests at the ground, including an unbeaten innings of 241 in the 2004 New Year's Test.
Waugh, who retired after that match, scored three centuries from 17 Tests at his home
ground, including his memorable last-ball century against England in 2003.

Tendulkar has scored more international runs than any other player in cricket history and was
famously regarded by Bradman as the player who most reminded him of himself.
