Trichromatic Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 Whenever he tried to dig in like that, he would go into shell, struggle and finally get out. He was able to play in difficult batting conditions, but always had to play fluently only. Was never good at blockathon. Cricspin, Number, sandeep and 2 others 4 1
rangeelaraja Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) SRT was hardly a clutch situation player for India regardless of his overall statistics and runs he accumulated. In that era, VVS was the biggest clutch players in test matches & for ODIS it was Yuvi & Dhoni Edited June 20, 2021 by rangeelaraja WC2011INDIA, New guy, Vk1 and 7 others 3 3 4

In his first 92 tests, Sachin has 8 50+ scores with <40 strike rate Kohli has one so far. If ge gets to a 50, this innings will be his second Vk1, kohli, Cricspin and 2 others 3 2

Have you seen his inning in SA where he scored 100 odd against Steyn and company in 2011 sorak, SRT100, kohli and 1 other 2 1 1

One can also opine that even on difficult pitches , Sachin could keep score board moving as he tries to dominate wherever possible . Also factor in quality bowling against whom he did that . Mecgrath, Warne , Styen , Donald , Pollock, Saqlain, Akram Some of the innings in Aus in 90s & early 2000s, Chennai -vs Aus (warne), vs -Pak , vs-Eng , vs -Aus , VS -SA in SA , one has to re watch again to appreciate class of the man. kohli, Vk1, SRT100 and 2 others 1 2 2

In that era, VVS was the biggest clutch players in test matches & for ODIS it was Yuvi & Dhoni Except in the 90s lots of time Sachin came at 5, 6 down and formed partnerships of over 100 runs. People have very very very short term memories www.cricketcountry.com/articles/sachin-tendulkar-peerless-in-crisis-situations-33852/amp/ Also the fact that they intentionally downplay situations when Sachin did it and overhype others And of course how do you you judge openers pressur situations? Sachin has one of the best stats in tournwment finals and finals wins for us But hey, once the circlejerk gets going online, there is no stopping it. You have to keep saying regardless of stats because stats shred your points raki05 1

We have innings where he completely cut off some shots just to survive. He would play just one side of the wicket. He cut the cover drive in his innings of 240 when it was his bread and butter. He played inside the ball in the entire series of South Africa. raki05 1

Rasgulla Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 Sachin performing in clutch finals of ICC ? LOL Virat was already highest scorer in 2013 CT , 2014 T20 WC. Now he is doing well on the most important stage out of all. Kohli the batsmen is levels above Sachin
rageaddict Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 Wow what a mammoth knock it has been. Surely among the Top 10 knocks of all times in Test Cricket. Vk1 and Lord 2
