India batting great Sachin Tendulkar picked the best three innings from his 24-year-long career, which enjoys watching. Although Sachin has 100 international hundreds, he named the knocks which made a difference in his career.
Tendulkar made his international debut for India in the year 1989 against Pakistan. He managed to adapt to the changing style of cricket over the years and scored around 34000 international runs.
Sachin likes to watch his couple of hundred at Sharjah against Australia and 98 runs against Pakistan in the World Cup 2003. He smashed 143, followed by a 134 on his birthday, a couple of days later in the final of the Coca-Cola Cup.

“The two games that we played in Sharjah, in 1998. Both against Australia – the semifinal and final. We had to get to a total to qualify for the final, which was also pretty steep. And another one if I had to add, then I would have to say the 2003 World Cup match against Pakistan. Always enjoy watching them,” Tendulkar said during a Q/A session on his YouTube channel.
Tendulkar recalled his debut against Pakistan and the reaction of his family over his performance.
“I was only 16 years and this first trip in 1989 to Pakistan was in the month of November-December. Certain parts of Pakistan were cold. When the temperature drops, we used to get some warm good. We would tend to eat a lot. In was a growing kid, so I was eating whatever there was on the table,” Tendulkar said.
“When I came back home, I could see that my family members were very happy with my performance.”
