#5 The final walk-off for Tendulkar

Saeed Ajmal is ecstatic after finding the edge of the Master Blaster

At the time, it wasn’t considered Tendulkar’s last game as he announced his retirement from One Day Internationals eight months later.

In the previous game against Bangladesh, he piled up his 100th International ton and his last game saw no dip his form as he signed off with yet another half-century. Saeed Ajmal eventually got rid of him with a Doosra that straightened to find the outside edge of the Mumbaikar.

Though he couldn’t carry on after scoring 50, his partnership set the tone for the remaining Indian batters to complete the chase.
