Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar goes down as arguably the most successful batsman in ODI cricket. Sachin was the lynchpin of the Indian batting for almost two decades and carried an enormous weight of expectation on his shoulders.

The ‘Master Blaster’ broke a majority of the batting records in his glittering ODI career which saw him amass a staggering 18000 ODI runs with 49 tons. He was one of the most prolific openers in white ball cricket and formed a lethal opening pair with Sourav Ganguly.

Sachin produced put an absolute exhibition of his masterclass batting by playing some memorable knocks in the World Cups and major ICC tournaments. Equally adept at playing pace or spin, he tamed the best of bowlers on his day and made batting looks rather ordinary. Sachin’s sublime timing, exquisite footwork and perfect balance were the hallmarks of his scintillating batting.

Besides his stellar batting, Sachin was also a handy bowler who bamboozled batsmen with a mixed bag of deliveries. The connect, love and affection that Sachin enjoyed with the billions of die-hard Indian fans is unparalleled in cricketing history.
