Sachin Tendulkar 100 100'S

[ianrauk]

What a marvellous achievement.
One of crickets greatest.
I feel so honoured that he managed this wonderful feat over the last 20 years whilst I have been following cricket.

It includes 20 against the Aussies and 9 against England.

Can't really see this record being broken for a very long while.

Yep. A massive achievement - good post Ian. India's David Beckham (with a tad more talent and application to his sport I venture...)
There's an article here.

He's not the best player that ever lived, but but I don't think anyone can question Beckham's talent or contribution to football over the last 20 years.

No, but one of the best ever batsman.

Oops. I meant to quote Aperitif. I was commenting on Beckham.

Well Beckham was good at striking a dead ball (penalty misses in Portugal aside) whereas the Little Master has to deal with faster moving targets. Only real comparison between the two is their advertising power.

I'm glad that the little master has finally got that monkey off his back.
The 100th took him a year which is well below his strike rate.
I read that he has to disguise himself and drives around at night as he gets mobbed if he's recognised.

Now you know why so many peeps do a night ride, Rich.
And the only posh spice that Sachin has ever had is on the rice at the Empress Curry Shoppe in downtown Delhi.(allegedly).
Anyway, who is questioning 'call me David' Beckham's talent or contribution to soccer? (Football was played at Twickenham earlier today.)

Becks playing the odd-shaped ball game with Posh totty - not Zara P T though.

Glad to hear the news. A true great. And what a relief it must be to put that milestone behind him after such a long time...

Is that one of those mid-air refeulling prongs on the woman's head, Rich? These Herculean efforts get everywhere!
In the interests of balance, here's S.T. helping launch a version of the IPL, with Mrs Tendulkar centre and a Bollywood actress, Priety Zinta at left. (viery prietty)

I heard it was a light brown non-shiny vehicle.
