There was to be no repeat of his twin centuries against Australia in 1998, but his 91 set up a total which, backed by Praveen Kumar's subtle-swinging accuracy, proved nine runs too much for Australia.In a game that ebbed and flowed wonderfully, James Hopes took Au

Full Name: Sachin Ramesh TendulkarBorn: April 24, 1973 in Mumbai, India Batting Style : Right-hand BatsmanBowling Style : Right-arm Off Break and Leg Break Bowler Test Debut : Pakistan v India at Karachi – Nov. 15-20, 1989 ODI Debut : Pakistan v India at Gujranwala – Dec. 18, 1989 Often referred to as a living cricketing legend, Sachin Tendulkar is one the best cricketers the world has even seen. Sachin is regarded as the greatest batsman in the world today, holding several batting records to his name. Till date he has scored 35 Test and 40 ODI centuries, surpassing even the Test records of legendary cricketers like Sir Don Bradman, Sunil Gavaskar and Allan Border. Sachin Tendulkar was just 15 years and 232 days when he made his Test debut against Pakistan on 15 November 1989 at the National Stadium at Karachi. Though Sachin could score only 15 runs in first inning, he impressed the cricketing world with his strong determination and desire to dominate the opposition. S

I think Ian Chappel has come out a little strong here. Sure, Tendulkar is not the same player he once was, but I guess that happens to everyone. There are just a couple of players in all professional sports who have retired in their prime. Moreover, I think it is hard, even unfair to compare two players, Tendulkar and Lara, of that calibre. What if India had made it to the super-8, no one would be talking about Tendulkar then. First of all Tendulkar is just one member of the team, whatever he does shouldn't be the sole reason for either winning or losing. If it does then it is a shame on the team and not on Tendulkar. I hope Ian Chappel watched West Indies lose to Sri Lanka. I haven't seen many players get stumped facing a fast bowler. I can easily remember the times when people said Lara was a flop, after a few losing seasons. The point is Tendulkar should retire when he wants to. To come out and say that Tendulkar looks like someone who is playing for statistics is absolutely ridic

Two kids from Shardashram Mumbai created history when they scored 664 runs for their school team in 1987-88. People expected miracles from them, and what are miracles? Acts that normal average men are incapable of doing? or maybe things they think they are incapable of doing. So act after act, every event keeps adding to the miracle
