Century 3 of 14; THE TRUTH! Sachin's century and India losing! 110 vs Srilanka

We discuss Sachin 110 runs in singer cup. Sachin has scored 49 tons in ODIs and India won in 33 matches. Lost in 14. No result in 2. We will discuss each one of these 16 occasions.

3 of 14;  Singer cup 3rd match vs Srilanka, Played at R Premadasa Stadium, Colombo

India won the toss and batted first. Sachin opened the innings with Jadeja and he scored 110 out of India's total score of 226. The only other fifty plus score was Azhar's 58 and other scores were like this Jadeja -0, Ganguly 16, Kambli 18

Srilanka chased the score of 226 in 45th over with the loss of only 1 wicket. Seven bowlers were used by India. Srinath, Venkatesh Prasad, Ashish Kapoor, Kumble, Sachin, Jadeja, Ganguly.

The most interesting fact is Sachin was the ONLY INDIAN BOWLER TO TAKE A WICKET among the 7 'great' Indian bowlers!




Kumar Sangakkara: "India have not lost so many matches becoz of Tendulkar; they have lost because of poor team performances."

it is not the fault of Sachin Tendulkar that India ended up on the losing side even when he got a ton for the side. Sachin is just 1 among the 11 players playing for the team. His duty is to score runs, and did it well in those 16 occasions, with incredible strike rates in almost all occasions! It wasn't his duty to take wickets and win the match! Even though he has did it many times.

Scored  a century, as a lone warrior in Indian innings but others did not help him... and, fought again as a lone warrior in the bowling innings too! One man's efforts cannot win a team game each n every time...!
