Top 5 Sachin ODI knocks vs Australia

#3 175 (141) at Hyderabad, 5 November 2009

Sachin made a mockery of the Australian bowling in this match

This knock by Tendulkar was in a series decider against the mighty Australians and Australia chose to bat first after winning the toss. India had a nightmare in the bowling department as every Australian who came out to bat smashed the Indian bowling and Australia ended up scoring a mammoth score of 350.

India had all their hopes pinned on Sachin and he didn't disappoint. In what turned out to be one of the most ruthless, attacking and belligerent innings played by the legend, he blasted the Australian bowling to all parts of the ground. When he finally fell, he scored 175 off just 141 balls which included 19 fours and 3 sixes. At this point, India were just 19 runs short but the lower order crumbled like a pack of cards and India lost the match, but the match will be remembered for one of Sachin’s his finest ODI innings.
