Yesterday was one of the memorable day for all the cricket lovers. The master, Sachin Tendulkar, scored his 48th century in the test, and 96 international centuries (46 centuries in ODI), on the 3rd day of the 2nd test match of the 3 match test series. Sri Lanka already lead the series by 1-0 in the bilateral series. India v/s Sri Lanka matches are always competitive and you see some excitement.
Also, Suresh Raina completed century in his debut, becoming 12th Indian to score century in his debut test match, test match and gave support to master blaster. Suresh raina got out at 120 and then Sachin Tendulkar and M.S.Dhoni continued Indians fightback. Meanwhile the little champion, Sachin Tendulkar completed his 5th double hundred and M.S.Dhoni completed his 18th test fifty. At present Sachin Tendulkar is at 202 runs from 343 balls and M.S. Dhoni is at 50 from 56 balls. Today is the 4th day and India trail by 53 runs by the end of 2nd session of the day.
The little master is still continuing in his peak form and scored century in Sri Lanka after 11 years, that is a huge period. The next competitor in terms of number test centuries is Ricky ponting (39 centuries) and then it is Jacques Kallis (35 centuries). And it looks that little masters record will be there in record books forever, but you can't say.
Have fun.. :)
