Sachin Tendulkar 141 vs Australia in 1998
Scoring against Australia have always been a habit of Sachin Tendulkar which he continued till the last.
It was the inaugural edition of Champions Trophy where Sachin Tendulkar shone in the second quarter-final playing an innings of 141 in just 128 deliveries to see Indian team putting a huge total of 307 on the board. Thanks to innings of 71 from Ajay Jadeja off just 65 that kept the run rate of Indian team high.
This was not the only contribution from ‘The Master Blaster’ as along with it, he also scalped four-fer with the ball.
An all-rounder contribution from Tendulkar saw India defeating Australia by a margin of 44 runs to qualify for the semifinal, which they eventually lost against West Indies.
