Description
About this piece
One hundred international centuries, and a generation that arranged its afternoons around them. This personalised cricket tee is for fans of that era — a tribute design printed in high density on 240 GSM oversized cotton, with your own name and number on it.
Made to order in India. It is the kind of thing that gets bought for a father or an older brother far more often than for the person buying it.
The design
A tribute-styled cricket composition anchored by the number ten, with room to personalise the name and number at order. The typography is treated like a real shirt back rather than a novelty print — proper weight, proper spacing, nothing cartoonish.
The print is colour-matched for the black blank and the floodlight-contrast look that goes with it. Numbers are the part that fails on cheap sports tees: heavy solid digits printed thin crack straight down the middle within a season. High-density printing puts the ink into the fabric so the digit flexes instead of splitting.
Who it’s for and how to wear it
For nineties kids, gully cricketers, and the friend who will still argue the case over dinner two decades later. It is a reliable gift precisely because the reference needs no explanation in India.
Wear it as a normal oversized tee with denim rather than treating it as sportswear — the oversized cut means it does not read as a replica jersey. If you are buying it as a gift and do not know the size, the oversized cut makes their usual size the safe choice.
Fabric and build quality
This is 240 GSM French Terry, 100% cotton on a true drop-shoulder oversized fit — not a regular fit scaled up, which is the shortcut nearly everyone takes. The sleeve sits where it does by design and the body stays boxy instead of tapering. Pre-shrunk and bio-washed before it reaches you. Why the number matters: 240 GSM vs 180 GSM, explained.
Fit and sizing
S to XL, drafted oversized, so start from your normal size. The chart on this page lists the garment measured flat rather than body sizes — 42 inches at S through 48 at XL, lengths 27.5 to 30.5. Anything within half an inch of those figures is within tolerance. The oversized size guide for India handles the awkward cases.
Printing, care and how long it lasts
A high-density print survives because it moves with the cotton rather than against it. What it cannot survive is repeated heat. Wash cold and inside out, line dry rather than tumble drying, and iron around the artwork if you iron at all. Full explanation: why prints crack and how to stop it.

Custom Sachin Tendulkar T-Shirt — FAQs
Can I put my own name instead of a tribute name?
Yes — the name and number are both yours to choose at order. Most people put their own name with the number ten, but there is no restriction either way.
Is this official Sachin Tendulkar merchandise?
No. It is an original tribute design by Toxikiing, not licensed or official merchandise, and we would rather state that clearly than let it be assumed.
Will the number print crack like cheap sports tees?
That is the specific failure this print process avoids. Large solid digits crack when the ink is laid on as a thin surface film. High-density printing bonds it into the cotton so it flexes with the fabric — keep it out of a hot dryer and it holds.
How long before a personalised tee is dispatched?
We confirm the name and number layout with you on WhatsApp first, and the dispatch window begins once you approve it. Shipping is free and tracked across India either way.
Do you ship outside India?
Not currently — every order is printed and shipped within India, which is also why delivery is free and tracked domestically. If that changes we will say so on the site rather than quietly adding a checkout option.
Are the tees pre-shrunk?
Yes, the fabric is pre-shrunk before the garment is cut, so the size you order is the size it stays. Washing cold is still worth doing, mostly to protect the print rather than the fit.
