Sachin Tendulkar has 100 centuries in international cricket and holds the record for scoring the most number of tons in international cricket. The only threat to Tendulkar’s iconic record at this time is Kohli who has 81 tons to his name. In spite of having a 24-year-old long career and facing some of the best bowling attacks in the history of the sport, Tendulkar maintained his consistency.

Sachin Tendulkar ODI Century

Sachin Tendulkar has 49 centuries in ODIs, the second most in the format. With more than 18,000 runs, Tendulkar holds the record for scoring the most in the format. The ‘Master Blaster’ on the 24th of February, 2010 became the first player to score a double century in ODIs. However, even after being the first player to score a double century, Sachin’s best knock in ODIs came in a losing cause. His knock at Sharjah on the 22nd of April of 1998 was called the ‘desert storm’. The Indian batter scored 143 runs in only 131 balls as India lost to Australia by 26 runs and qualified for the final of the Coca-Cola Cup where he once again scored a winning century.

The right-handed batter was a dominant force against some of the best bowlers thanks to his range of shots off both front foot and back foot. His batting performances impressed some of the best players including Donald Bradman. The legendary Australian cricketer once said, “I asked my wife to come and have a look at him (Tendulkar) because I never saw myself play but I feel this fellow is playing much the same as I used to play.”

Sachin Tendulkar’s centuries often came under criticism for being too slow. However, the former batter on many occasions was left without any support and would win matches single-handedly. He hit 33 centuries and scored 11,157 runs at an average of 56.63 in wins in ODIs which shows that many times Tendulkar would win the match with his batting. His average dropped to 33.25 in lost matches. In matches where Tendulkar did not go big, India would lose frequently.
