Sachin

[Common as Mook]

Closing in on his 100th international 100s at his home ground of Mumbai. Just stop and read that again; 100 international hundreds; absolutely remarkable (if he does it)

The Indians will go absolutely MENTAL.

Currently 65*

Great player, I hope he gets it this time, and appropriate if he gets it in Mumbai.

Why are most of the greatest batsmen short-arses?

 

[Razzoo]

Hope he does it too. He deserves it.

Why are most of the greatest batsmen short-arses?

Easier to get head over the ball
A lot harder to bounce out
Lower centre of gravity

Evens itself out as you don't see many short bowlers. Even lots of spinners are pretty tall.

Hurry the F*ck up and get it Sachin...Im getting pretty bored of hearing about it everytime he or India take to the field.

Although he hardly plays in a gane which isn't an INTERNATIONAL.

Fingers crossed for The Little Master.

I reckon he'll do it but if he doesn't the pressure will just get bigger and bigger. The word legend is overused in sport these days but he certainly is that in the world of sport.

Good luck tomorrow Sash.

Always enjoyed watching him bat. Amazing cricketer.

 

[nevergoagain]

lol out for 94.

 

[cheeseroll]

Shame..

 

[Storer 68]

and how weird is THIS. No indian has scored a hundred and taken five wisckets in an innings in the same match since 1962. Not even Kapil Dev

Sachin Tendulkar missed his historic ton by six runs, but the fans at least had the consolation of watching R Ashwin conjure an energetic hundred to become the first Indian since 1962 to take five wickets and score a century in the same innings.

All/most hit with a cricket bat made in Sussex by my mate at Newbury... Ashburnham incase anyone knows it.

Got a nice little signed Tendulker mini Uzi too
