Sir Sachin Tendulkar 4

[ajithfederer]

When many people say how many of Sachin's hundreds have come for a winning cause, here is analysis of each of those centuries he scored when INDIA lost and reason why it went in vain.



Sachin Tendulkar gets to yet another century but India end up on the losing side - How many times have we seen that?



While there would be the Tendulkar bashers and critics who say that India lose a match whenever Sachin scores a century, the statistics prove otherwise.




Out of the 48 hundreds, We won 33 , Tied 1, Draw 1. And we lost only 13.




1. 137 off 137 (Strike rate 100) balls Vs SriLanka at Delhi in 1996 World Cup.

India scored 271/3 in 50 overs. The only other 50 score was from Azhar. SL made 272 in 48.4 overs. Manoj Prabhakar had 4-0-47-0. He also opened in the innings and scored 7 of 36 balls.



2. 100 of 111 Balls Vs Pak in Singapore - Apr 96.

India 226 all out in 47.1 overs, When Sachin was out score was 186/4 (We cant blame because next 3 are match fixtures). Pak had a reduced target of 187 from 33 overs.



3. 110 of 138 Balls (Slower but...) vs Sri Lanka In Colombo - Aug 96

Again India 226 for 5 in 50 overs, Only other 50 score from Azhar (58 of 99 balls !!!). Sachin has also bowled 6-0-29-1, the second most economical bowler and the only wicket taker (SL were 230/1 in 44.2 ) of the match next to Srinath. Seven bowlers were used by Azhar.



4. 143 of 131 Balls (!!!) Vs Aus at Sharjah, Apr 1998

This was chasing under lights. The qualifying match before the final. The whole world knows about this match. Still one interesting point, when Sachin was out India were 242 at 5 at 43 overs. Target was 276 in 46. Still India finished at 250/5 scoring just 8 of the next 3 overs.



5. 101 of 140 Balls against SL at Sharjah , Oct 2000.

Indian score was 224/8 in 50 overs. (No other 50 score). SL got 225/5 in 43.5, Sachin also bowled 5-0-22-0, better economy rate than everyone except Srinath.



6. 146 of 153 Balls against Zimbabwe at Jodhpur , December 2000

India made 283 / 8 in 50 overs. Sachin was the last man to be dismissed, score was 235/8 at 46.3 overs when he was out. Agarkar and Zaheer Khan propelled India to 283 in the last 3.3 overs.

When Sachin has scored 146 of 235 in 46.3 overs, you can guess what the other 8 great batsmen were doing against the World class Zimbabwe attack. Second Highest scorer was Zaheer Khan with 32.

Zim got 284/9 in 49.5 overs. Kumble bowled the last over. Sachin also got 6-0-35-1





7. 101 of 129 Balls Vs SA at Johannesburg , Oct 2001

India got 279/5 in 50, Ganguly made 127 of 126 balls. When Ganguly got out, the score was 193-1 in 35.2 overs. Sachin was the last man to get out at 263. SA got 280 in 48.4 overs. Sachin bowled 9-0-51-0, second best in economy rate next only to Agarkar (10-0-45-1)



8. 141 of 135 balls Vs Pak at Rawalpindi, March 2004.

India were chasing 329 and were 317 all out in 48.4 overs, 8 balls to spare. No other batsman made even a 50 (when chasing 300 ) and when Sachin was out, India were 245-4 in 38.4 overs. They needed 85 from 68 balls with 6 wickets in hand.



9. 123 of 130 Balls Vs Pak at Ahmedabad, April 2005.

India made 315/6 in 48 overs (48 over match), again no other 50 score. Second highest was Dhoni 47 of 64 balls, (third highest was extras - 39). Pak made 319 in 48 overs. The three quicks (Balaji, Nehra and Khan went for 188 runs from 26 overs between them taking only 2 wickets). Sachin bowled 6-0-36-1. No Harbhajan and no Kumble.



10. 100 of 113 Balls Vs Pak at Peshawar, Feb-2006.

India were 328 all out in 49.4 overs. Pathan and Dhoni got 60 each. When Sachin was out when India were 305-5 in 45 overs. Managed only 23 in the last five overs. Pak scored 311/7 in 47 overs and won by D/L method. Could have been anybody's game. Sachin did not bowl.



11. 141* of 148 Balls Vs WI , Malaysia.

India made 309 /5 in 50 overs. Sachin was not out. Pathan was the only other 50 scorer. WI made 141/2 in 20 overs and won by D/L method. Again could have been anybody's game.



12. 175 of 141 Balls vs Australia at Hyderabad, 5th Nov 2009.

India needed 351 to win. And at the End, lost by 3 Runs. Spare a thought for Sachin Tendulkar. He seemed to have done everything possible but didn't last the final lap. Only Raina scored along with him…made 59…and other Players just Enjoyed Sachin’s batting.



13. 111 of 101 Balls Vs South Africa at Nagpur , 12th March 2011.

India were 267/1 and at the end all out for 296. When Sachin got out after scoring 111, India only managed to score 30 Runs with lost of 9 Wickets.



This Proved how good Sachin’s hundreds were! Hope people will stop laughing now.






In other 35 Instances , We won 33 , Tied 1, Draw 1.

Just to add to this fact...he already has 14 scores in '90s... Many of which has resulted in an Indian victory.



If we look at the centuries scored by Sachin while chasing are better then the others.



Below is the list of players scoring centuries while chasing :



SACHIN --> HAS DONE IT --> 14 times



PONTING --> HAS DONE IT --> 08 times



LARA --> HAS DONE IT --> 07 times



INZAMAM --> HAS DONE IT --> 03 times



Sir Viv.RICHARDS --> HAS DONE IT --> 03 times



DRAVID --> HAS DONE IT --> 02 times



Now , let us see what Sachin has done for India's cause when he has gone past 50 but not a ton. Out of the 93 times Sachin Tendulkar has scored a fifty, India have secured 56 wins while ending up on the losing side 35 times. Two games were without the Result. Digging deeper, India has won 28 times whenever Sachin has scored between 70 to 99.



Who has scored the maximum number of tons in winning causes for their respective teams.


Sachin’s critics will have their mouths tightly shut because the master tops the chart with most number of tons resulting in a team's win. Most of the time he stayed unbeaten.



Sachin : 33 Hundreds --> 13 times he was Unbeaten.

Ponting : 25 Hundreds --> 8 times he was Unbeaten.

Jayasuriya : 24 Hundreds --> 5 times he was Unbeaten.

Ganguly :18 Hundreds --> 10 times he was Unbeaten.



Hope everyone will understand Sachins stats and hopefully the worth of Sachin's 100's would not be discussed again.

To people for whom the above stats are not enough then SACHIN's...





*** 21 years of cricket is not Enough...??
*** 48 tons aint Enough...??
*** 33 TONS in WON-Matches ain't Enough...??
*** 14 TONS in WON-Matches "while-chasing" ain't Enough....??



NOTHING is Enough.....
...coz.... They got two know abt cricket ----- SINCE LAST WEEK..!!!





Note: The reason for this was to stop people debating about sachins stats.



Anyways hats off to all ignorant indian cricket lovers who do not have any proper analysis of the game.

Try to watch the game with some education i mean game analysis and try to stop making useless and proofless statements.

This 'Sachin scoring 100, we lose' propaganda had started very recently IIRC. Previously, cricket fans would forego a loss if Sachin scored a 100. At least avaravadhu 100 adichaarennu sandhoshapaduvom.

Sachin playing helicopter shot in 2002

Master,

This is exactly the match that I was talking about. Although SRT doesnt play this shot as frequently as MSD, this is no new addition to his armour.

I have seen this match but don't remember those two shots. Still, these two shots are not that bad to watch compared to what he played in IPL.

no. it has been there for a while since 1996.. only thing is, earlier, it was like when Sachin scores the highest score of the match (at least for India innings), we tend to lose... IIRC, this started in 1996 WC where he was the highest scorer in most of th matches but few we won..

127* Kenya - won
70 WI - won
94 AUS - lost
137 SL - lost
65 Sl (semis) - lost

but it is absolutely ridiculous to blame him...even when the epic 175 against Aus when chasing 350 was blamed that he should have finished the match.. he scored 50% of the runs at a very good strike rate but still cited for the defeat by few people..

athu kooda paravala stan , Dhoni antha shot ah adikirapalam ithellam oru shot aanu kevala paduthanavanga ippo sachin is the inventor of helicopter shot nu poduraanga .. no offense but ithu konjam too much ah irunthichu ..

630+ matches. God knows how many shots he has played. In future, whoever invents whatever shot, it might be possible to unearth a similar shot played by Sachin in the past, which probably has zilch to do with the new shot invented but die-hards can make a claim using the vague resemblance that GOD only invented it. Not to be taken seriously.
* I havent seen the alleged helicopter shots in the IPL
