Sachin Tendulkar, argued as the GOAT of cricket has numerous accomplishments to his name. But we haven't seen him play since 2013, so... just how good was he? contact me: channel.wicket@gmail.com
The numbers can never tell the real story. When Sachin played, the nation stopped. When he got out, everyone switched off TVs. He was the hope of the country. He was an emotion.
Imagine getting not out from umpire but still walks away knowing that he is out shows his sportsmanship, he wasnt tampering the ball just removing the dirt from the seam but haters gonna hate anyway..... ❤ the god
Yes. If he wanted to cheat (which he never would, looking at his background, track record and overall conduct), he wouldn't do it so openly. He's clearly smarter than that.
Comparing Sachin Tendulkar with Virat Kohli in a dismissive or derogatory manner is unfair and doesn't do justice to either player's achievements. Here are a few reasons why such comparisons can be seen as problematic: 1. Different Eras: Sachin played in an era with different cricketing conditions, rules, and challenges. The technology and data analytics available to modern players like Kohli were not accessible to players like Sachin during his prime. This makes a direct comparison based solely on statistics difficult. 2. Bowling Quality: Sachin faced legendary bowlers like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath, and many others who were at the peak of their careers. These bowlers posed immense challenges with their skills and experience. 3. Technological Advancements: Modern players like Kohli have access to advanced training techniques, equipment, and sports science that were not available in Sachin's time. This can influence factors like fitness, recovery, and performance analysis. 4. Playing Conditions: Pitch conditions, rules regarding bouncers and field restrictions, and even the quality of cricket balls have changed over time. These factors can significantly impact a player's style of play and overall performance. 5. **Respect for Legends:** Both Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli have their own unique strengths and contributions to cricket. Rather than comparing them in a negative light, it's more respectful to appreciate their talents and the impact they've had on the game. while it's natural for fans to discuss and appreciate their favorite players, making derogatory or dismissive comparisons without considering the contextual differences and challenges faced by players in that era thus such comparision is unfair and disrespectful.
Misinformation. He wasn't caught cheating. He was accused of cheating by the match referee but cleared upon a detailed investigation. What he was doing was construed legal, but he needed to inform the umpire of that, which he forgot to do. He was warned for that, but not adjudged a cheater. If he wanted to cheat (which he never would, given his background, track record and overall conduct of 25 years), he wouldn't do it so openly. He's clearly smarter than that.
Mind your language man, sachin was not cheating, he was just cleaning the sewing of the ball, and he was accused of cheating over that, unlike australians who were using sandpaper for ball tampering
Not only sandpaper....they used to do it as a team consisting cricketers on the playground , umpires and reporters outside the ground .....don't forget what they did with Muralidharan .....😂

Across all formats, this is by far the greatest batsman to pick up the willow. Sachin Tendulkar and Sunil Gavaskar were not cricketers only, they were emotions, and hopes of 1.2 billions.
Two mistakes: 1. Virat has overtaken Sachin in the most no: of ODI centuries. 2. India did not lose the test match when he scored his first test century. Actually Sachin’s innings of 119 helped them to draw the test match.
Sachin would have made more centuries if he was batting in current batting conditions of Kohli. Powerplays, more test matches and less odi's, umpire's wrong decisions that too at 90's, balling attack he faced like Akram, Younis, Lee, McGrath, vaas, pollard, pollock and much more world class bowlers.
@@sangeethc Maybe, maybe not. Can’t say for sure. He did get out an awful lot of times in the 90s which was more often than not his own undoing. And the fielding today is far superior to that of the times he played in. He may have scored more if he played today but that is not necessarily depend just on the bowling quality. There is also an overall more positive approach to batting today. During the 90s batsmen were still criticised if they played too many aerial shots or took any risky chances. This made batsmen over cautious. Since the advent of 20/20, batsmen have complete licence to really go for it in all formats making them fearless. Then there many who make the DRS case but there are several times it would have gone against him. So can’t say for certain if he would have scored many more centuries but one thing is certain; Sachin would have won many more tight matches for India with the current Indian team👍
@@Govindaclass when field placements and fielding are tight today we have shorter boundaries too. But in past the boundaries were huge especially at foreign pitches
@@sangeethc TBH, I don’t think that made too much of a difference. But the change in fielding quality is a huge difference, both ground fielding and catching. If you see old clips, so many of the boundaries could have been stopped with a simple dive or slide, instead they just gave up too easily(probably thought ‘not worth ruining my jersey😂) Most of those boundaries would be just 2 runs today. Then there is the incredible catching over the boundary line today. Upto a decade or so ago, no one even attempted those sort of catches and they would watch the ball go just over their heads for six. Today, not only are batsmen denied a six but their innings could be cruelly cut short by some incredible acrobatic and intelligent fielding on the boundary line. Batsmen may have some favourable stuff going their way today but it’s certainly no cakewalk.
@@Govindaclass that doesn't matter about the fielder saving 2 or 4 in boundaries. But you still have exception catches in the past at boundary lines. Now due to introduction of IPL players have more stamina and piece of mind to attempt those catches. But sachin had got out 28 times in 90's and 51 times in 80's out which he got out 19 times out in 90's due to poor umpire decision!!
Not many know why even contemporary cricketers worshipped sachin while growing up. India as a nation was in great crisis in 89-91 It was economic crisis, its would be prime minister assassinated, Kashmir insurgency Sikh militant. India doubted itself after independence whether it would survive. And comes Sachin like pale or maradona for Argentina, he takes off focus of all negative things of a generation and fixes their eyes firmly focused on what would be a relief after hard days work. And the not only he exemplifies batting but also wins games single-handedly for India. Not only would he piles up runs at tremendous pace but also gives a tremendous start and sets the game for India. Indians see a ray of hope that Indians get be as good as others and can give as better than others. While nearly half of the team was involved in betting, leading the team by captain Azharduddin(what a thankless person) , he wins the games despite the game being fixed!! It is also a time when pace attack of opposition teams peaked while Indian pace attack at best was modest. It was also a time of technology where bowlers get to see every mechanical movement of batsmen to discover any loophole in their batting technique. It was also a time when sledging episodes peaks with Australia leading it. Cricket pitches have not turned into batting paradises now yet. Injuries & controversies wouldn’t affect his focus while he also plays as successful pastime bowler. Sachin is not just a batsmen but an emotional of a rising civilization called India.
Sachin will remain the greatest cricketer ever. He was a great batsman when -the rules were not batsman - friendly, -we had different types of pitches in different countries. - BCCI was not rich ( as much they are now) - cricket also had other legend bowlers at that time.(Australian, pakistanis, south africans) - he missied so many centuries because of bad umpiring (today DRS is available)
The brilliance of Sachin lies in the fact that he performed consistently, over two decades, before DRS, against some of the best bowling attacks ever. Did other players have better peaks than him? Maybe, but as an overall career he is hard to match. You can make an argument in the favour of Sachin in pretty much every department of batting against any batter, and that’s what makes him the greatest batsman of the game

@@pragunahuja6879 I agree with you, the intent of scoring is to win games. I based my comment calling out his pure batting ability over the entirety of his career.
@@pragunahuja6879 Only in finals. In the semifinals, he played match-winning innings of 83 (against Kenya in 2003) and 85 (against Pak in 2011). Even in the 1996 semifinal, he scored 65 runs against a team total of 120. Yes, he couldn't make a mark in the finals, but we can say that it is a common characteristic for most great players to get pressurized, especially when you have an audience of more than a billion people.

Again, I am not justifying his blunders. I am just stating that he made mistakes in the finals, but that doesn't make him a stat-padder.
Sachin Tendulkar is in his own league... No one can do what he did with what he had. After the first bowl faced he was absolutely dangerous.. As an Indian I would like to mention Brian Lara as someone who was equally distructive maybe a bit more. What Sachin did was simply marvelous.. he played traditional copy book shots to really good bowlers bowling at their best. And he had the option of hitting that same good ball to 4 different corners of the ground. He alone would sometimes un hinge the best bowling line ups. Everyone who has seen him play including opponents say that we hope he would get out. He could dominate at will and sometimes he just cautiously did not. And then the opposite team have it with Sachin. He made them change the field to his liking. And whoever sledged Sachin had a very bad day.. he has perfect English but he spoke only with the bat. If you see Sachin playing a straight drive or a copy book cover drive, everyone knew they're facing the best playing batsman at his best. The numbers stand testimony. On field brutal, off field a best friend.. absolutely humble.. Generations started playing cricket because of him and those who made it to the Indian team 80% were done with their great careers before Sachin Tendulkar retired. That's Sachin. The only batsman who got standing ovations across the world by just walking out to play.. everyone else got it when they played well or hit a century.
The greatness of Sachin can be understood by the fact that he was compared to every other batsman, who was in their peak time during their career. Starting from great Don Bradman, David Boon, Steve Waugh, Mark Waugh, Lara, Injamam, Kallis, Jayasurya, Dravid, Ganguly, and even today Kohli. He is being compared to the cricketers beyond his era. He is being labeled as a rival to all great bowlers Akhtar, Steyn, McGrath, Vaas, and Warne. And the height of professionalism is that he had very good friendships with all rivals and competitors off the field.
His innings where he didn’t play a single signature cover or on the off side, shows his flexibility and adaptability… and this was through the whole test innings.. if that’s not a sign of greatness I don’t know what is..
Cricket is a big sports in India mainly due to 3 players - Gavaskar, Kapil Dev and Sachin. Without them, it would have been an average sports like others
Test … maybe Overall Nope, sachin had like 1 billion people relying on him … lara had only few millions at max .. sachin had everything to lose, lara didnt have anything to lose.. Sachin was always playing under pressure.. lara had no pressure This says all
@rutikpatil7771 for everyone* Even if he's not your favourite cricketer, he is your favourite cricketers's favourite cricketer. Australians, English, South Africans, all respected him and even Pakistanis admired him during his prime. Anyone who has watched cricket for last 30-40 years know how good he is. His stats are unmatched. With more batter friendly conditions, new players might break his records but they can never make the same impact on the sport like sachin did. He is one of the biggest reasons why cricket is the most popular sport in India. He is undoubtedly the GOD of cricket.
He wasn't cheating, he was cleaning the seam and his fingers nails are cut really short. Legends and experts who saw it had declared that by cleaning this way he wasn't gaining any advantage with the ball, back then ICC would punish players from the sub continent at the drop of a hat. This incident though was an eye opener and a trend setter as BCCI had threatened to walk out of this series, from here on BCCI just grew and grew in power and today it has grown into a monster which maybe dangerous for the game. Had this incident happened today, everyone would have looked the other way and common sense would have prevailed.
For sachin he struggled a lot,but his bat speed was very less compared to lara,but sachin solid mind,but kohli n sachin consistency is good,but punter n gilchricst n gayle n vivrichards n kapildev n msdhoni n abd he didnt in 1 game n johnny bravo turned gamed games when mattered!!
Just watch him before his tennis elbow injury and his record first 100 test match was average of 58 , also it's one day where strike rate mattered and his strike rate was way above lara so pls stop this talk about putting others above the best batsman that's ever been
As a Pakistani I believe honest, he wasn't a cheater. He was a genuine talent and took his craft and became a legend. I watched him every time he played, the guy was pure class. If you were around when he played he literally carried the Indian team through the bad times and still delivered in the good times. I don't care what anyone says but Sachin is a legend most probably the best batsman I've ever seen, if another batsman comes along fair enough. Virat is a 2nd close with Brian Lara and a few others but I'm talking of classy batsmen and for me personally Sachin just inches out virat kholi not because of personal bias, but before India became a cricket super power this guy carried India on his shoulders.
It was disheartening to see such a great batsman born when no one in his team was able to give him support. That’s why so many centuries in lost cause.😢 Moreover, he was the biggest victim of a Bad Bad Bad Umpiring. Forget Steve Bucknor even Simon Tauffel gave wrong decisions against him on one or two occasions.
It's damn disrespectful to make this kind of caption against him bruhh... I just came here to see how it's proven.. Sir Sachin Tendulkar is only God of Destruction for bowlers after Sir Don Bradman. He made 80's Indian kids more devoted to become a cricketer. No insults, but the caption/postor of this video in a glance is very very offensive..
It's not fair to compare Virat or anyone playing now to Sachin coz ODI format itself has changed to more of a batsman game. This ICC rule change litrelly destroyed beauty of ODI matches and importance of building great bowlers.
That is so true, bowlers have no skin in the game. It's a batman paradise now, Now imagine Sachin played in the days where it was fair game, and if you want to know how good Sachin was just check out the bowlers this guy has played against, I would love to see nowadays players play against old school bowling rules.
Very true.. Powerplays, 2 balls from each end, short boundaries, a weak team compared to the team we have now, quality bowlers like Mcgrath, Akram, waqar, Alan Donald, lee, aktar etc... And no reverse swing now... So no matter who breaks his records.. Sachin will always be the GOAT...
it is also to be noted that sachin played in the era of great wicket takers like Ambrose, Walsh, wakar younis, wasim akram, akthar, Mc grath, pollok, chaminda was, muralidharan, warne, STEVE BUKNOR, and all!!! that also makes him great.... during the time of kohli... there are no dangerous wicket takers like that!!!
He did not cheat. Please don't say that. He was cleaning the dirt if anything it was an honest mistake. Even God does not question Sachin Tendulkar's integrity.
I daresay Kallis was a greater player. World class bowler batter and slip catcher... Sachin was the best batsman of his generation but Kallis was the best player of his generation..
nope, Kallis was nowhere near Sachin batting wise, check both their tests and ODI records, you will see the light, better all rounder but definitely not better batsman.
Great video, but there's a mistake at 4:34. It says that Sachin Tendulkar has the SECOND most centuries in ODI's, behind Virat Kohli. You said he has the record. But otherwise, brilliant job. This video would not seem out of place for a channel with 3M subscribers. Your channel will be just as successful if you keep up the hard work.😁
Another mistake: He says that India went on to lose the match after he scored his first test century. Actually, India drew the match because of his 119 and partnership with Prabhakar.
WHY THIS VIDEO THUMBNAIL IS DIFFERENT FROM THE CONTENT?? NOT CAUGHT CHEATING BUT, ALTEADY INVESTIGATED BY UMPIRES AND BY RULES, WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO DO IT. THE AMOUNT OF CHEATING THAT HAPPENED WITH HIM IS BAD ENOUGH THAT NOW YOU ARE HIGHLIGTING THE WRONG PART.
There was no DRS for Sachin. Don't forget Kohli never had to face: Akthar, Waqar, Akram, McGrath, Gillespe, Holder, Ambrose, Allan Donald, Musstaq, Muralitharan, Warne and manyore. His actually centuries are 148 if he had DRS in his era.
one question who is real fast bowler after 2014....brett lee, shoaib akhtar, allan dolland, ambrose, wasim akram, waqar younis, mcgrath, chaminda vas, pollock, walsh, shane bond, many along with shane warne, mulitharan, saqlain mustaq....they all played against sachin...not virat....that speaks more on performance and average. i have never see any bowler above 155km/hr. all are trying bowling slower and slower these days. all fast bowler nowadays are turning wrist and palm. sad...never compare. both are gems in their own era. sachin is superior than virat. no doubt about that. one more point... now cricket is more favouring batsman more...slow balls.....lesser ground size...drs....sachin era had proper cricket matches
He was really good but not perfect. The reasons being 1.chronic underachiever in finals be it even a triangular series. The only wins are sharja 98nd commonwealth 07. 2. Nervous 90s 3. McGrath was his archellies heel. I dont think he handled him effectively. Again this doesn't mean was bad, but just that he aint perfect!
Virat is not playing against the best bowling line up teams and fielders. Virat has a good 3rd position to take time and bat with a less used ball. In Sachin times rules wete different, he was given unfair Out many times. Also they used to play with the same ball in both innings. There are lots of other unfair advantage Kohli had from playing on different pitches which support Indians a lot. In old times India was not a big thing.
How unfortunate is the thumbnail of this video. Sad guys! You can speak whatever, but for a guy who played 20 years and the theme of the video is to show the greatness of the guy, you kept a thumbnail sticker which says “Did he cheat”! You need clicks, but is this the way…?
The bowlers Sachin faced were the BEST EVER!!!!! The bowlers Kohli faced are.... CRAP!!!!!! SACHIN IS THE BEST BATTER EVER!!!! ( apart from Bradman and Lara on a good day )
so acording to you boult , starc , amir , styn , rabada , andreson , broad , archer and many more are crap . come out of nostalgia top teams still have best bowlers , just see the records of these bowlers what threat they give to batsmen
@@rishabhpandey6587Apart from steyn ,who has a caliber of Bret li,macgrath,Malcolm marshel,valsh,vasim akram,vaqar,shane warne,murlidharan,akhtar etcetera
He is the highest scorer in world cups. Holds the record with 2278 runs in world cups and is the only player to even cross the 2000 runs mark. He was the first to score more than 500 in a single World Cup event. In 2011 world cup, which India won, he scored 482 runs which was highest by an Indian batsman in that edition. You my friend, are either an idiot or just an asshole. I am sure you know nothing about cricket.

He is true magician of batting which no one has seen before. In the era of t20 nobody could match him.
How Good WAS He ???!!!
For Me,
He IS tooo Good Even For this Moment ❤❤❤
I have watched him coming down the track and hitting over the top to mcgrath, warne, ambrose walsh and many more.
Sachin all time legend
Sachin Tendulkar is in his own league... No one can do what he did with what he had.
After the first bowl faced he was absolutely dangerous..
As an Indian I would like to mention Brian Lara as someone who was equally distructive maybe a bit more.
What Sachin did was simply marvelous.. he played traditional copy book shots to really good bowlers bowling at their best. And he had the option of hitting that same good ball to 4 different corners of the ground.
He alone would sometimes un hinge the best bowling line ups. Everyone who has seen him play including opponents say that we hope he would get out.
He could dominate at will and sometimes he just cautiously did not. And then the opposite team have it with Sachin. He made them change the field to his liking.
And whoever sledged Sachin had a very bad day.. he has perfect English but he spoke only with the bat.
If you see Sachin playing a straight drive or a copy book cover drive, everyone knew they're facing the best playing batsman at his best. The numbers stand testimony.
On field brutal, off field a best friend.. absolutely humble..
Generations started playing cricket because of him and those who made it to the Indian team 80% were done with their great careers before Sachin Tendulkar retired. That's Sachin. The only batsman who got standing ovations across the world by just walking out to play.. everyone else got it when they played well or hit a century.
Proud to be cult of SRC. Thank you paaji for all your wonderful services to indian cricket. Even to world cricket too❤❤❤
The greatness of Sachin can be understood by the fact that he was compared to every other batsman, who was in their peak time during their career. Starting from great Don Bradman, David Boon, Steve Waugh, Mark Waugh, Lara, Injamam, Kallis, Jayasurya, Dravid, Ganguly, and even today Kohli. He is being compared to the cricketers beyond his era. He is being labeled as a rival to all great bowlers Akhtar, Steyn, McGrath, Vaas, and Warne.
And the height of professionalism is that he had very good friendships with all rivals and competitors off the field.
The bats have gotten better, grounds gotten smaller, pitches got better and no ball tampering now! There is no comparison
His innings where he didn’t play a single signature cover or on the off side, shows his flexibility and adaptability… and this was through the whole test innings.. if that’s not a sign of greatness I don’t know what is..
Cricket is a big sports in India mainly due to 3 players - Gavaskar, Kapil Dev and Sachin. Without them, it would have been an average sports like others
Kohli is also the reason that cricket is still the biggest sport in India .
He has literally shattered records of viewership
@@Physics_scholar69 nope,
It is a itch that they can't ignore, unless they make atleast one negative point in the video they will not get sleep and suffer from insomnia.
Cheat.........never, the man is a personification of honesty.
Lara was the best during Sachin era.
Why Didn't you ask Lara? In one of his interview Brian Charles Lara has said himself, that Sachin is by far the Best Batsman around the world.
Test … maybe
Overall
Nope, sachin had like 1 billion people relying on him … lara had only few millions at max .. sachin had everything to lose, lara didnt have anything to lose..
Sachin was always playing under pressure.. lara had no pressure
This says all
Let's Get it Straight...
Lara is Good for Left Hand and Sachin Offcourse for Right Hand Greatest BatsMEN of All Time ❤❤❤
Savvy 😉
EXTRAORDINARY EDITING ❤️
God of cricket for a reason
Nice video, I thought you would mention the Sydney test. Please look it up .Given the circumstances it was one the best test innings ever played.
Sachin Tendulkar is undoubtedly god of cricket.
No
For sachin fans like u
@rutikpatil7771 for everyone*
Even if he's not your favourite cricketer, he is your favourite cricketers's favourite cricketer.
Australians, English, South Africans, all respected him and even Pakistanis admired him during his prime. Anyone who has watched cricket for last 30-40 years know how good he is. His stats are unmatched. With more batter friendly conditions, new players might break his records but they can never make the same impact on the sport like sachin did. He is one of the biggest reasons why cricket is the most popular sport in India.
He is undoubtedly the GOD of cricket.
He wasn’t caught cheating… He was removing mud caught inside the seam… Please get your facts right. It was a suspended suspension.
No point giving justification, these westerners will never accept it.
Playing with the emotions of a billion Indians is a sure shot way to boost your views.
How many time he got out in 90s run mark before reaching 100.. he probably has a record in this too
He wasn't cheating, he was cleaning the seam and his fingers nails are cut really short. Legends and experts who saw it had declared that by cleaning this way he wasn't gaining any advantage with the ball, back then ICC would punish players from the sub continent at the drop of a hat. This incident though was an eye opener and a trend setter as BCCI had threatened to walk out of this series, from here on BCCI just grew and grew in power and today it has grown into a monster which maybe dangerous for the game. Had this incident happened today, everyone would have looked the other way and common sense would have prevailed.
Title of the video suggests that the creator didn’t watch cricket in 90s
the god❤
And who the h*** are u to leave bad comments on Sachin???😅😅
For sachin he struggled a lot,but his bat speed was very less compared to lara,but sachin solid mind,but kohli n sachin consistency is good,but punter n gilchricst n gayle n vivrichards n kapildev n msdhoni n abd he didnt in 1 game n johnny bravo turned gamed games when mattered!!
Just watch him before his tennis elbow injury and his record first 100 test match was average of 58 , also it's one day where strike rate mattered and his strike rate was way above lara so pls stop this talk about putting others above the best batsman that's ever been
Include Yuvraj instead of dhoni in above list
I love the vedio
God and the King
As a Pakistani I believe honest, he wasn't a cheater. He was a genuine talent and took his craft and became a legend. I watched him every time he played, the guy was pure class. If you were around when he played he literally carried the Indian team through the bad times and still delivered in the good times. I don't care what anyone says but Sachin is a legend most probably the best batsman I've ever seen, if another batsman comes along fair enough. Virat is a 2nd close with Brian Lara and a few others but I'm talking of classy batsmen and for me personally Sachin just inches out virat kholi not because of personal bias, but before India became a cricket super power this guy carried India on his shoulders.
Our God ❤❤

SACHIN THE BEST SHOWSTOPPER. GREATEST EVER
A century of centuries.
We are John Snow's, we know nothing 😃
In our defense, we are mere humans! 🙏
It was disheartening to see such a great batsman born when no one in his team was able to give him support. That’s why so many centuries in lost cause.😢 Moreover, he was the biggest victim of a Bad Bad Bad Umpiring. Forget Steve Bucknor even Simon Tauffel gave wrong decisions against him on one or two occasions.
The real GOAT ❤
*1st male cricket to score a double century in odi.
I cannot belive you have less than 200 subs
It's damn disrespectful to make this kind of caption against him bruhh... I just came here to see how it's proven.. Sir Sachin Tendulkar is only God of Destruction for bowlers after Sir Don Bradman. He made 80's Indian kids more devoted to become a cricketer. No insults, but the caption/postor of this video in a glance is very very offensive..
Make video on Jeff thomson
In tests you can compare him to Lara
Jacques Kallis, if you just look at the numbers.
God!
It's not fair to compare Virat or anyone playing now to Sachin coz ODI format itself has changed to more of a batsman game. This ICC rule change litrelly destroyed beauty of ODI matches and importance of building great bowlers.
That is so true, bowlers have no skin in the game. It's a batman paradise now,
Now imagine Sachin played in the days where it was fair game, and if you want to know how good Sachin was just check out the bowlers this guy has played against, I would love to see nowadays players play against old school bowling rules.
@@farleymarly2575 exactly, let alone there was a review system.
Very true.. Powerplays, 2 balls from each end, short boundaries, a weak team compared to the team we have now, quality bowlers like Mcgrath, Akram, waqar, Alan Donald, lee, aktar etc... And no reverse swing now... So no matter who breaks his records.. Sachin will always be the GOAT...
Sachin was the greatest batsman ever, after Brad an. But, don't forget Gavaskar, perhaps the best opener ever
it is also to be noted that sachin played in the era of great wicket takers like Ambrose, Walsh, wakar younis, wasim akram, akthar, Mc grath, pollok, chaminda was, muralidharan, warne, STEVE BUKNOR, and all!!! that also makes him great.... during the time of kohli... there are no dangerous wicket takers like that!!!
How conveniently you skipped the 1998 final match against Australia where sachin single handedly won it for India.
HE IS THE GOAT
Are we just going to ignore the fact that he said Sachin holds the record for most centuries in ODIs?
He did not cheat. Please don't say that. He was cleaning the dirt if anything it was an honest mistake. Even God does not question Sachin Tendulkar's integrity.
I daresay Kallis was a greater player. World class bowler batter and slip catcher... Sachin was the best batsman of his generation but Kallis was the best player of his generation..
nope, Kallis was nowhere near Sachin batting wise, check both their tests and ODI records, you will see the light, better all rounder but definitely not better batsman.
@@1905binny I said Sachin was the best batsman of his generation. Please read my comment clearly
Brian Charles Lara Great great great player
Great video, but there's a mistake at 4:34. It says that Sachin Tendulkar has the SECOND most centuries in ODI's, behind Virat Kohli. You said he has the record.
But otherwise, brilliant job. This video would not seem out of place for a channel with 3M subscribers. Your channel will be just as successful if you keep up the hard work.😁
Another mistake: He says that India went on to lose the match after he scored his first test century. Actually, India drew the match because of his 119 and partnership with Prabhakar.
Sachin also hold record for being the batsmen who was dismissed in his 90's. I think something around 18... 10 more than 2nd place. 🤣
29 overall
He’s not the first cricketer but first male cricketer to score a double century in an ODI. Belinda Clarke is the first cricketer.
S A C H I N = CRICKET
Post more
Cleaning the ball's seam of dirt is NOT illegal.
He is not good.. he is greatest
WHY THIS VIDEO THUMBNAIL IS DIFFERENT FROM THE CONTENT?? NOT CAUGHT CHEATING BUT, ALTEADY INVESTIGATED BY UMPIRES AND BY RULES, WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO DO IT. THE AMOUNT OF CHEATING THAT HAPPENED WITH HIM IS BAD ENOUGH THAT NOW YOU ARE HIGHLIGTING THE WRONG PART.
There was no DRS for Sachin.
Don't forget Kohli never had to face: Akthar, Waqar, Akram, McGrath, Gillespe, Holder, Ambrose, Allan Donald, Musstaq, Muralitharan, Warne and manyore.
His actually centuries are 148 if he had DRS in his era.
great video
but @5:34 when sachin scored 119*... india did not lose the match...it was a draw
please don't create false thumbnails just for the views.
one question who is real fast bowler after 2014....brett lee, shoaib akhtar, allan dolland, ambrose, wasim akram, waqar younis, mcgrath, chaminda vas, pollock, walsh, shane bond, many along with shane warne, mulitharan, saqlain mustaq....they all played against sachin...not virat....that speaks more on performance and average. i have never see any bowler above 155km/hr. all are trying bowling slower and slower these days. all fast bowler nowadays are turning wrist and palm. sad...never compare. both are gems in their own era. sachin is superior than virat. no doubt about that. one more point... now cricket is more favouring batsman more...slow balls.....lesser ground size...drs....sachin era had proper cricket matches
is this narrated by A.I.
Did you just say that Sachin was a cheater???
He was really good but not perfect. The reasons being 1.chronic underachiever in finals be it even a triangular series. The only wins are sharja 98nd commonwealth 07. 2. Nervous 90s 3. McGrath was his archellies heel. I dont think he handled him effectively. Again this doesn't mean was bad, but just that he aint perfect!
Odi no2 now....virat kohli has crossed Tendulkar in recent past having 50 odi centuries...
Virat is not playing against the best bowling line up teams and fielders. Virat has a good 3rd position to take time and bat with a less used ball. In Sachin times rules wete different, he was given unfair Out many times. Also they used to play with the same ball in both innings. There are lots of other unfair advantage Kohli had from playing on different pitches which support Indians a lot. In old times India was not a big thing.
AI is frightening
Don’t judge player how much score or wickets taken judge by how many final they won for team
Without scoring runs and taking wickets ,you will not even qualify for finals
his main enemy was his tennis elbow injury 😆
Q. How good was he?
A. Better than everyone else.
How unfortunate is the thumbnail of this video. Sad guys! You can speak whatever, but for a guy who played 20 years and the theme of the video is to show the greatness of the guy, you kept a thumbnail sticker which says “Did he cheat”!
You need clicks, but is this the way…?
1070 divided by 16 = 66, so how is the average 46?
First class cricket has two innings. Average is calculated by dividing the total runs scored by the number of innings batted in (and dismissed).
@@rishiwahal2843 thanks
The bowlers Sachin faced were the BEST EVER!!!!! The bowlers Kohli faced are.... CRAP!!!!!! SACHIN IS THE BEST BATTER EVER!!!! ( apart from Bradman and Lara on a good day )
Why sachin fans are so insecure about kohli?
@@AvinavaDuttaRoychoudhury who?
so acording to you boult , starc , amir , styn , rabada , andreson , broad , archer and many more are crap . come out of nostalgia top teams still have best bowlers , just see the records of these bowlers what threat they give to batsmen
@@rishabhpandey6587 go marry kohli you SIMP.
@@rishabhpandey6587Apart from steyn ,who has a caliber of Bret li,macgrath,Malcolm marshel,valsh,vasim akram,vaqar,shane warne,murlidharan,akhtar etcetera
All other great together are half of Sachin Tendulkar
Cr
Virat Kohli is The GOAT. period
😂 Newb
How could anyone have the audacity to question Sachin? I haven't even watched this video for a second, yet I'm already clicking the dislike button.
Where u get this information sachin was caught by cheating don't make such kind of gossip for your personal interest
Wow an aussie making a video about the god of cricket, i wonder what great things they would say.
Literally 0:15 (so they are just bitching about him)
A player who never performed in ICC tournament when needed
Who r u noonsense
He is the highest scorer in world cups.
Holds the record with 2278 runs in world cups and is the only player to even cross the 2000 runs mark.
He was the first to score more than 500 in a single World Cup event.
In 2011 world cup, which India won, he scored 482 runs which was highest by an Indian batsman in that edition.
You my friend, are either an idiot or just an asshole.
I am sure you know nothing about cricket.
This is clickbait guys!
