Tendulkar showed that the pressures of captaincy can get to the best of cricketers

When Tendulkar took over the captaincy of the Indian team for the second time, New Zealand's visit to India was his first high-profile series.

With the series tied at 1-1, the teams headed to Gwalior for the third ODI. India scored 261 and it looked like it would eventually win the game. However, New Zealand was not ready to hand over the match and fought back hard.

Tendulkar snapped when one of the fielders was a bit slow to react, and the captain was seen screaming with a livid expression on his face. India eventually won the game, but this was a rare show of anger from Tendulkar during his time as Indian captain.
