#1 Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly - 26

Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly walking out to the middle together in Indian colours was among the first cricket memories of many in the previous generation. The left-hand / right-hand batting combination did wonders for Team India in the late 90s and early 2000s.
The Prince of Kolkata and the Master blaster batted together in as many as 176 innings, which is a record in ODI cricket. They loved each other's company in the middle and went on to score 8227 runs at an average of 47.55 batting together for India, which is again a record for most runs by any pair in the history of ODI cricket.
The Ganguly-Tendulkar combination was involved in 26 hundred-run partnerships. That is despite the fact that they did not open together in the latter part of their careers.
