Tendulkar’s match winning ability
Friday, July 27th, 2007Is Tendulkar a match winner? S.Rajesh puts forward the fourth inning figures.
How many times were matches really winnable by the time the fourth inning was played? For instance, in this match in South Africa, we had to make 430 plus to win in the fourth inning. So this stat - a poor fourth inning average is not a criteria for proving match winning ability.
More often than not, matches are won and lost in the first and second innings where Tendulkar averages 72 and 51 respectively.
