Look at tendulkar's reaction at 0:10. Paradesi bucknor.
On one hand, there are the extra ordinary fieldin efforts, and unbelievable umpiring that has cut Sachin innings short.
And then wee have the inexplicable rushes of blood like yesterday.

And to all you -deleted- who believe that staying till the end to score the winning runs (inspite of hitting a back-breaking century) only makes a batsman a match winner, read the following sentence.
"Sachin also has stayed unbeaten the most number of times while leading a team's win. "

Tendulkar Magic Can’t Save India.
Who said 50-overs cricket is dead? This is fast becoming the best World Cup ever, although that’s little consolation to India, who threw away a great chance to beat key rival South Africa after Sachin Tendulkar had got the hosts off to a flying start with yet another century.
The match billed as the biggest of the tournament so far – two cricketing powerhouses with realistic aspirations for the title – didn’t disappoint, culminating in a nerve-wracking finale with South Africa needing 13 runs from the last over.
Cometh the hour, cometh the unlikely figure of Robin Peterson, who swatted Ashish Nehra for six and a four through covers to win it for South Africa and silence the home crowd. Maybe it would’ve been different if India’s captain Mahendra Donhi had asked the threatening Harbhajan Singh to bowl, but India shouldn’t dwell on that as its troubles stemmed from elsewhere – middle-order batting.
India’s batting performance was so bipolar it made Dr. Jekyl look like a well-balanced and rounded individual. Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir got the match roaring into life with some spectacular shots and at one stage the hosts were on 267 for 1, but then India let South Africa right back into contention with a horrific batting collapse in which it surrendered nine wickets in as many overs, scoring just 29 runs.
Dale Steyn was key to South Africa’s revival, ending with 5 for 50, after being on 0 for 32. By crumbling so meekly, India took its foot off South Africa’s throat and relinquished the advantage that Tendulkar, Sehwag and Gambhir had fought so hard for.
That’s a shame, particularly for Tendulkar, who scored 111 for a record sixth World Cup century and the 99th of his career. That century of centuries will surely come in the next few weeks, and nobody would begrudge him that.
His opening partner Sehwag is also a treat to watch, even if his risky play often leaves you with heart in mouth. Sehwag is in belligerent mood this World Cup and once again started his innings with a four, maintaining his wonderful record of hitting a boundary from his first ball in every match this tournament.
He got an early reprieve when he edged a Morne Morkel delivery behind, but South African wicket-keeper Morne van Wyk stayed rooted to the spot rather than stretching to his right for what could have been a fairly routine catch.
After that let-off, both Sehwag and Tendulkar set upon the opposition bowling with such a spectacularly brutal assault they were in danger of finding themselves in The Hague for crimes against the nation of South Africa. The capacity crowd, Bollywood starlets and all, was in raptures as the two Indian openers racked up 100 in just 71 balls.
At this rate it looked like India would go on to score close to 400, and Gambhir did little to change that prospect when he came in and joined in the fun, getting his 50 just moments after Tendulkar had reached his century.
Their performance had left the South Africans so demoralized it looked like they’d spent the last couple of hours having their faces slapped with a fish. But then came the Indian collapse, and hope returned.
The Proteas never looked truly comfortable chasing India’s total of 297, but with several players desperate to make amends for the loss to England in Chennai, they had enough grit and determination to get through the challenge.
Jacques Kallis and AB de Villiers were particularly impressive – the latter is having a great tournament – and kept the South Africans in the game long enough for Peterson to come in and deal India the final, painful blow.
Defeat isn’t the end of the world for India. The Men in Blue will be chastened by the result, but it could prove to be a valuable lesson for this World Cup and prompt them to search for that killer instinct before it’s too late.
For now South Africa has won the bragging rights, but India is more than capable of winning them back.

I saw this match live. We had a 2 game final(the first one was washed out). Tendulkar scored less but he was batting very well.
Who was the first captain for Thalaivar in an international match?
Srikkanth.Quote:

Couple of Pakistan players did not play in that match so couple of local boys were given a chance to play for Pakistan. Sachin was one of them. Looks like Thalaivar had dropped a catch because of wrong field setting. He dropped the catch of Kapil Dev! :)
LM please read SACH it has many interesting news and 40 questions answered by Thalaivar.
Woww, that's an interesting anecdote. Will buy the book soon :)Quote:

Private insurer Reliance Life today said that Sachin Tendulkar, who has just completed his 48th one-day century, also becomes one of the highest contributor for children in its philanthropic initiative.
The insurer has taken initiative to contribute Rs. 25,000 to underprivileged children for every ‘six’ scored in the cricket World Cup.
For this, it has joined hands with the International Cricket Council (ICC) and Room to Read — a global non-profit organisation promoting literacy and gender equality in education for this campaign.
Tendulkar has so far hit 8 sixes, just behind West Indies’ K.A. Pollard. Other Indian players who have contributed to the initiative include Virender Sehwag and Yusuf Pathan who hit 7 and 5 sixes, respectively.
“Over 5,000 children have already benefited under the Reliance Life Insurance ‘Boundaries for Books Initiative’ as players hit nearly 150 sixes in World Cup,” the insurer said in a statement.
Every single six will provide at least 30 underserved children with access to fully functional libraries with local language and English books as well as trained teachers.
In addition to contributing for every six hit in the world cup, Reliance Life also contributed Rs. 10,000 for every four in the India-England match to the NGO under the same initiative, the company said.
