sachin , australia , last test , amazing record
sachin has a amazing record vs aussies in last test match of a test series ( of more than 1 test )
1992 - india was beaten and thrashed , parth track was very fast those days ..all indian batsman were clueless but a 18 year old stod up with some mangificiant back-foot punches and on drives ..makes 114 off 160 balls ....india looses with a big margin but a world beater is born
1998 - india has already won the series but sachin gives taylor and warne more nightmares with 177 off 207 balls ....after the test warne , govin rabertson meet prasna ..first question they ask pras is " how to bowl to sachin " ?
1999-2000 sachin makes a wtachfull start but wickets start falling very quickly ...sachin decides to counter-attacks and hit 3 4's in one mcgrath over before getting a rough decision on 45
2001 - one of the geatest series of all time ...series level 1-1 before going into chennai where sachin against hits a 100 .....126 off 229 balls ..gets to 100 with 6 (4thj time , a wowld record )..one of sachin's underratted 100 ...vs full strength aussies attack ( mcgrath , warne , dizzy )
2003 - makes a watchfull 241 to make sure that tugga never ever forgets him ....doesn't plays a single cover drive ....another underrated knock ..had umipiring been correct in second innings of aussies ..this knock would have been termed as the one which beated aussies in their den first time in 11 year..unfortunately too much remember fir risk minimalisation
2004 - series gone but india had pride to play for ..on a bowler pradise after being too booged down in first innings decides to counter -atack ..55 off 80 balls
2007-2008 makes 153 to make sure india doesn't looses this test ...off just 200 balls
