While there is some argument that who is the best Test batsmen but when it comes to ODI's Tendulkar's numbers and consistency is amazing. He batted pre-dominantly lower down in the order during the 1st 5-6 years of his career but once when he requested to bat up the order the difference in numbers is amazing. Take a look at the numbers above till 1994 Jan 1, they are okay for a 5th/6th batsmen with an average of 31 with 12 fifties in 62 Inns at an s/r of 74 which was good for 90's Standards.

Till 01 Jan 1995
90 87 10 2768 115 35.94 3488 79.35 3 21 6 256 24
The start of his prime as the best Limited Over's Int'l Opening batsmen. Once he was promoted (ODI Series in NZ - Mar 1994)the boost in numbers is very good. His overall average notched up by 4 points and also his S/R grew by 5 points. 2nd best scorer after WJ Cronje by 44 runs(1133 he scored) but Tendulkar averaged 47.34 with 3 hundred's and 9 more fifties and he scored those 1089 runs in just 25 matches. Uncharacteristically scores 3 consecutive ducks in a Home series against WI but makes it up with 5 scores of above 50 (61 against NZ, 66, 54, 88 and 105 all against WI)
Till 01 Jan 1996
102 99 11 3212 115 36.50 3926 81.81 4 22 6 318 28
Another reasonable year in 1995 with 424 runs in 12 matches with one 100 and one fifty.

134 131 13 4823 137 40.87 5880 82.02 10 31 6 481 45
First World Cup Glory with 523 runs in the 1996 Edition. Shoots up his Name in the Global arena. Draws praise from almost everybody for a 22 year old batsmen. If i am not wrong his first calendar year 1000+ run season. He amasses 1611 runs with 6 hundreds and 9 more fifties. His Batting average increases by 4 points and for the first time in his career breaches the 40 mark.

173 167 16 5834 137 38.63 7070 82.51 12 36 8 582 57
After being made the Captain of the Great 90's Team with strike bowlers and awesome all-rounders his form takes a slight dip. Look at the numbers yourself. I don't want to go through the motions again. His average drops by 2 points. Ganguly outscores Tendulkar for the first time in ODI's.

Now I am throwing an open challenge. Even Viv's record of 1700+ runs was overhauled by Youhana in 2006 but this record will stay forever. I will be stunned, shocked and amazed if this record is broken. 1894 runs in just 34 matches with 9 100's and 7 fifties with a S/R of 102.15 in this year alone. His average notches up again by 4.30 points. Australia was murdered in Sharjah and in the Champions Trophy.

229 222 22 8571 186* 42.85 9875 86.79 24 44 12 854 111
Another world cup, Demoted to Number 4 for a brief period of time and was made captain again. The Australia tour was single-handedly the worst season in his ODI Career along with the 1997 Std bank Tri-series in SA. These two series were probably the worst in his career if i am not wrong. Dravid and Ganguly outscore Tendulkar this year.

263 256 22 9899 186* 42.30 11499 86.08 27 50 12 997 124
The biggest shock in cricketing world comes to fore. Thanks to Mohd. Azhar and Cronje, Tendulkar is relieved of his captaincy but still has a passable year with 3 hundreds and 6 50's in 34 matches. 1328 runs @ an ave of 39.05 but is outshone by Ganguly and Kirsten who batted higher up in the orders.
Till 01 Jan 2002
280 272 25 10803 186* 43.73 12489 86.50 31 53 13 1113 127
Passes his 10,000th run a feat never achieved before. Has a pretty good year against Australia again in ODI's/tests. Doesn't clear the 1000 run mark for this year but scores 904 runs in 16 Innings :clap: at an ave of 69.53.
Till 01 Jan 2003
300 291 30 11544 186* 44.22 13336 86.56 33 56 13 1191 133
A good year again. 741 runs in 19 inns with 5 NO's at an ave of 52.92.

321 312 31 12685 186* 45.14 14642 86.63 36 64 14 1322 140
Great world cup. Misses winning the wc again. Gets MOS for WC 2003. Great Year with 1141 runs in 21 (Mat/Inns) at an ave of 57.08 with 3 hundreds and 8 fifties. This year he had a good TVS Series again against Aus and NZ where he scored 476 runs in 7 matches. :shock: and :clap:

342 333 32 13497 186* 44.84 15656 86.20 37 69 15 1423 145
Starts well against Aus and Zim in the Down under series in Aus scoring 63, 44 and 86(against Aus, zim and Aus) but is bogged down by a sudden loss of form for the later stages of the tournament. His 2 poor scores in the final means India lose the ODI series. Tennis elbow strikes havoc at the middle of this year and avoids certain ODI Series(es)(Not entirely sure will provide details later)but still not a bad year. 1 Hundred and 5 fifties come this year with a Series win in Pakistan for the 1st time in his career.
Notable point: Aus won the 1st test series in India after Tendulkar missses the first 2 tests in 2004 series.
Till 01 Jan 2006
358 349 33 13909 186* 44.01 16189 85.91 38 71 15 1474 150
Worst Year 1- Makes just 412 runs in 16 matches. Bad year thanks to injuries again. Loses 5 months in action(May - Sep 2005) thanks to the returning injury and hence avoids the first ever Super Series( 3 ODI's and a Test match) against the then World champions Australia in Australia. Scores a comeback 93 and 67* against SL but India do very well without the services of him and won the series against SL 6-1. Has a woeful 4 match series against SA.
Till 01 Jan 2007
374 365 35 14537 186* 44.05 17004 85.49 40 74 16 1555 157
Worst Year 2- Booed in Wankhede in a Test match. Loses another 4 months in action from Apr - Aug 2006 but scores 141 against WI in a return after injury match but does very badly against Australia in Malaysia and SA in SA. Pollock and Mcgrath had a final laugh. Pollock was the best bowler against Tendulkar in ODI's snapping him 9 times in 28 matches. He averages a poor 27 when playing against SA with Pollock in the team.

Resurrection -1
Ignonimous exit for India in World cup 2007. Heavy backlash in India. For the first time in 16 years expresses his public displeasure as coach chappel questions his attitude. But that was the catalyst. Scores heavily in England and against SA in Ireland with 6 90's (2 each against Pak in India, SA in Ireland and against Eng in Eng). Has a good series against Aus in Ind (278 runs in 6 matches)although Aus have always won the series 4-2. The main catalyst was the Test series in 2007/08, Sydney Test to be exact. 1425 runs; 2nd best after Matthew hayden in ODI's. Just 1 hundred but he scored 13 fifties
Till 01 Jan 2009
419 409 38 16422 186* 44.26 19215 85.46 42 90 20 1793 169
Resurrection -2
Sanju Manju calls him the white elephant after a slew of low scores during the round robin stages of CB Series. Inglourious dastard forgets the Test tour where he scored 493 runs and calls for dropped. But Master scripts a 63 against SL, 117 and 91 making it the first ODI Series win in almost 2 Decades. Special mention to Dhoni's captaincy and the dropping of sourav/dravid surprisingly by National selectors. Plays only 2 series(es) in a heavy test calendar of 2008 and starts the practice of choosing ODI series(es) to avoid. 460 runs in 12 games.
Till 01 Jan 2010
440 429 40 17394 186* 44.71 20249 85.90 45 93 20 1901 182
First ODI Series win in NZ and SL. Scores a terrific 163* against NZ and a 138 in Compaq Cup Tri series Final (NZ and SL) and then continues choosing specific ODI Tournaments to avoid and does so with elan. A re cap of 136 against Pak again with a brilliant 175 against Aus in 2009 chasing 350. Splendid knock and a certain top 10 candidate. 972 runs at an ave of 54.00; 3 ton's and 3 50's.
Till 01 Jan 2011
442 431 41 17598 200* 45.12 20401 86.26 46 93 20 1927 185
Plays only 2 ODI's and misses an entire calendar year to concentrate in Tests but scores the ground-breaking 200 against SA. A pretty good attack with Steyn and Kallis in the fore but I have to say the boundary lengths have awfully become short in ODI's.
Till 02 Apr 2011
453 442 41 18111 200* 45.16 20980 86.32 48 95 20 1981 193
Finally a WC win. Strikes 2 great hundreds against Eng and SA and 2 more firties. 2nd top scorer in the tournament after Til' Dilshan. Have to admit he was dropped 5 times against Pak in a semi-final which gives him the 3rd MOM against Pak in WC(1992, 2003 and 11). A great year to follow perhaps.
Has scored 513 runs in 11 matches at an ave of 46.63
