Congrats Sachin on 49th 100

[SachDan]

Frustration was quite evident when he threw unnecessarily to run out Sach :hysterical: Yeah..a second inning failure coming up!

Does it again :hysterical: over throws gifts couple of runs to Vijay :)

[King Tendulkar]

I tell you sachin ton has mentally disentegrated him. Surely sachin is close to taking number 1 spot in test batting rankings again

The recent ranking updates have him at 3 behind Sanga and Sehwag

We're truely priviledged to watch the last few innings of a gifted genius. Every time Sachin bats now, I look at it as a gift to watch the great man wield the blade for India.

[Precambrian]

So the lead is ten now? That's some catch up for Ponting to do.

[The Dark Horse]

150 to the master :hatsoff:

[SachDan]

150 :clap:

I don't get where this Ponting vs. Tendulkar rivalry even came from.. sure, they were close at one stage, but there has never been any verbal banter between the two of them (as far as I'm aware). My guess is that it has been contrived by Indian fans who are are sour at Ponting to degrade him.

A few years ago most cricket "pundits" had written off SRT and said that it was a matter of when rather than if Ponting surpassed SRT. So these threads are an answer of sorts for such comments. So not really much to do with Ponting.

Fair enough. As long as you're taking it out on them and not Ponting :winky:

Most runs and most tons. They are in direct competition!:--D Its all good fun the banter:winky:

I think Ponting has been one of the biggest admirers of Sachin. But dont tell me that he never thought of surpassing Sachin. Nothing wrong with that though and you are right that there has never been any ugly exchange between the two. But one could sense the competition. Ponting did his best, but could never catch up.

Congrats Sachin :clap:

[Shakthi]

Where you not calling for his head on a plate a few years back? Don't be so shameless and now jump on the bandwagon!:--D
