Hardly anyone knows that once Sachin Tendulkar didn’t want to face him in a test match. In a television news program, Navjot Singh Sidhu said that when he and Tendulkar were playing against the West Indies at Port of Spain in 1997, Tendulkar was feeling uncomfortable to play some balls bowled by Ambrose near his rib cage area and then Tendulkar asked Sidhu to face as many deliveries as he can during that bowling spell from Ambrose.

Nevertheless the man would have scored a 100+ had he not been run out.Captaincy also was a burden for him at which he was never so natural  at the first place. And would have got another 100+ had he been not given out of a big no ball on 92  of Bishop's bowling at Barbados.But then Ambrose was such a nasty bowler who on his day would make any batsman uncomfortable at the crease.
