playing black what can i have done to stop the pawn promotion and suggest me what moves could i have taken to win the game

From move 49 onwards I cant see you having won the game.   My only advice would be to take better care of your pawns earlier on in the game. You made a lot of simple mistakes that could have been avoided and that led to you being unable to stop his endgame attack.

Ouch. You were in a pawn(s) down endgame, where only your opponent has a passed pawn, there were pieces other than the rooks, and your knight was not able to assume the role of a blockader of the passed pawn...

 A nightmare to defend, and in most cases impossible.

 

The game was lost for most of the game...

Actually white missed a faster knockout: 28.e6, but the position should be completely won in my opinion anyway (if not, it's very close to it already).

 

From your 23...Nd8? I think the game is just lost for black all the way through, or at least as close to lost as you can be most of the time, and completely lost the rest of the time.

 

 You're already a pawn down, and you allow white to drive your pieces backwards and gain the advantage even in activity. More activity AND more material is too much.

 

Black's position is bad by that point, but I'm not 100% sure it's lost before that point (23...Nd8). It may be just very difficult.

 

So where was the point where you let things get out of hand? I believe it's 21...Ra2. It should probably be 21...Ra3, using white's pawn weaknesses (c3 is weak), and if white tries

22.c4 (reasoning 22...bxc4 23.b5, although black should be able to hold here in my opinion).

 22...Ba6 

(I was thinking about crazy things such as 22...Rxf3!? 23.gxf3 Md4 (forking c2 and f3) 24.Bb1 Nxf3+ 25.Kg2 Nxd2 26.Rxd2 bxc4 and black's pawn and two bishops may give black sufficient compensation for the exchange, but it may be dangerous, and it is far above my level to decide if that is correct or not).

 

23.c5 Bc8 (switch back) - and it seems... perhaps ok for black. A bit uncomfortable, but surely better than what happened in the game.

Your move - 21...Ra2, Immediately allowed black to improve the activity of his pieces and disrupt the coordination of your pieces.

 

Going back further, I'll try to pinpoint the exact point at which I believe the position became uncomfortable for black.

It seems that white missed an earlier chance: 20. Rd7 instead of the scared 20.Bd2. Black may be in troubel here.

 

15...Qxd1 - An understandable mistake. I might have made it myself on the wrong day..., but in the endgame, white's pressure just becomes more tangible in this position. I think 15...Qg6 was needed, although again, black's position is not very good.

 

White missed 13.Bf4, which was even stronger than what was played 

 

Black's problems started as far back as move 11...d5. Before that, there wasn't anything really special to say of the position. Other than a strange move or two, neither player had much going for him I think. 

 

Now why 11...d5? You're less developed than white, and you open the position... Interesting.  If any player has an advantage here it would be white, though he may not have any right now. 11...d5 just gives white what he needs to make use of black's underdevelopment - opens up the position. In this case, it also loses a pawn:)... but the whole logic behind the move needs to be questioned.
