5 greatest batsmen produced by India in ODI cricket

#1 Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar is the most complete batsman in the history of ODI cricket

He is a man whose name is almost synonymous with the game of cricket itself. Hailed as ‘The God of Cricket’, Tendulkar holds just about every single batting record in the game, including that for the most runs, most hundreds, most fifties, the most man of the match awards, to name a few.

Tendulkar’s ability to play the straight drive with minimum fuss made your jaw drop, his exquisite cover drive through the off side made you crave for more, his ability to whip the ball past mid-wicket with ease made bowlers gape at him, his ability to play the upper cut with the precision of a surgeon made opposition captains scratch their heads in utter amazement.

Tendulkar is the most complete batsman in the history of ODI cricket.

In a staggering 463 matches, the diminutive master batsman scored a mind-boggling 18426 runs, including 49 hundreds and 96 fifties, at an average of 44.83
