Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar.. If one day is not enough to talk about his achievements, it is not a superpower! The 24-year-old has many thousands of runs, countless records and hundreds of pages in cricket history in his long cricketing career.
Countless people come to the ground and are glued to the television just for their game. A warrior who started chasing records at the age of 16 and scored hundreds of centuries. Today, the God of cricket has all the best (51). Let’s recall Sachin’s special innings on this ‘special day’!
Sachin Tendulkar made his debut without any expectations and created a sensation in the world of cricket. He has broken many world records with his name. Sachin means records. Records stand for Sachin. But it was in February 1992 that the entire cricketing world eagerly awaited him.
In the match against Australia in Perth, the then nineteen-year-old Sachin put up an extraordinary fight with heroism. The Australians made 114 runs against the wild bowlers and came back for the ninth wicket. Sachin told the cricketing world that even if India lost this match, he would be fine.
Suffering from back pain
India lost the test against Pakistan by a narrow margin of 12 runs at Chepauk in January 1999. But Sachin’s innings in that match is amazing. In the first innings, Pakistan scored 238 runs, and India scored 254 runs. In the second innings, Pakistan scored 286 runs to set India a target of 271 runs. But India were in dire straits at 82/5. But Sachin (136), along with Mongia (52), effectively countered the Pakistani bowlers and guided the team to victory. He scored a century while suffering from back pain. But India suffered a defeat when Sachin Tendulkar got to the seventh wicket for 254 runs.
Holding back tears
His century against Kenya in the 1999 World Cup was special. Shatakam Badi overcame the pain of losing his father to score a century against Kenya.
He was praised for his brilliant innings during a difficult phase of his life. Sachin scored an unbeaten 140 runs off 101 balls. He hit 16 fours and 3 sixes. With this, India scored 329/2 runs. Kenya then made 235 runs.
Dots for Akhtar
Sachin’s devastating innings led India to victory in the 2003 World Cup against Pakistan. Batting first, Pakistan scored 273 runs. Later, Sachin played a brilliant innings. He scored 98 runs off 75 balls. He hit 12 fours and one six. The way Sachin Tendulkar hit Shoaib Akhtar’s short ball towards deep backward point for a six was amazing. India won the match by six wickets.
Sachin’s 147-ball double century
against South Africa in February 2010 shook the cricketing world. But this shift was exciting. Although Sachin scored 190 runs in the 45th over, he did not make much of an impact after that. With that, fans are worried about whether he will score a double-century or not. Meanwhile, in the last over, Sachin Tendulkar completed his double century by taking a single towards backward point off the third ball.
