Sachin Tendulkar completed 17000 runs during the 5th ODI: Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar has finally completed his record of 17,000 runs on Thursday in his 20th season in one day international cricket at Hyderabad. Tendulkar achieved the mark during the fifth one-day international against Australia when he reached seven runs with a three off pace bowler Ben Hilfenhaus past square-leg in his 435th ODI game. Even a half century in this series, to fire and keep the hopes of Indian fans alive. Tendulkar, at the age of 36 only has the records of test runs (12,773), test hundreds (42) and one-day hundreds (45), was nine not out and 92 ODI fifties under his belt. India was on 110 for 2 in 16 overs, chasing 351 for victory and a 3-2 lead in the seven-match series. He missed the milestone just by few runs.
Sachin Tendulkar: Sachin Tendulkar made his debut in Pakistan in 1989 and proved himself as an unforgettable star of the cricket world. Tendulkar reached the formality as he needed just seven runs to reach another milestone in his sparkling/ growing career. Sanath Jayasuriya is the second person from the top at 13377 runs, whereas, Ricky Ponting still has to do a lot of catching job to do. The moment Sachin Tendulkar achieved the mark every audience jumped out of their seats with excitement.Tendulkar’s wait to reach the 17,000-run mark in One-dayers continued in Mohali as he missed the milestone by just seven runs after getting dismissed for 40 on a dubious decision in the fourth ODI against Australia.
Sachin-One of the best batsmen: He has been declared as one of the world’s best batsmen after Australian legend Sir Donald Bradman. In the exceptionally large- 159 matches he has played thus far, Tendulkar has scored 12,773 runs at an average of 54.58. He has scored 42 hundreds and 53 half centuries in the longer format of the game. He achieved the mark during the fifth one-day international against Australia when he reached seven runs with a three off pace bowler Ben Hilfenhaus past square-leg in his 435th ODI game. Australia scored a massive 350 for four against India in the fifth cricket one-dayer at Rajiv Gandhi stadium on Thursday. The series is locked for 2-2. He scored the position of Man of the Match in the series and achieved Karizma Bike as a reward. If Sachin, the top run-getter in the ODIs with 16,993 runs in his kitty, gets past this mark, he will be the first player to achieve this score. Sachin also tops the list of batsmen who scored most number of centuries in ODIs with 44 hundreds. He has 12,777 runs to his name with 42 tons in Tests also. He is the first bats man who has completed the 1000 runs and 45 half centuries also.
