   Jawad..its seems you dont love crikcet…you are just trying to put very biased analysis…and n fact going by your own analysis…Sachin has scored 15 centuries in Australia, South Africa, England & New Zealand…all other vistors batsman struggle to get runs on these tracks….inzamam cannot even Dream of scoring these many hundreds n these countries…how many hundreds he has scored n Australia & South Africa…you will fall on your own face.

   Please stop comparing a greatest batsman with other good batsmans like inzamam and Mahela.

   Anyone can easily make out from where you come…and its only jealousy which is creatng lot of smoke in you blog…please stop writng these idiotic blogs…its no way going to harm the greatness of Sachin Tendulkar.

   Sachin Tendulkar is the critics favorite pick. So you another joining the band wagon is it? I may have a different opinion on the content, however appreciate your work.

   Lol. You think its tennis where only one man play and you can put the blame on him if lose occurs? Dude, what about the other 10 members? How can you win if you score a century and other 10 players play rubbish? Doesn’t it makes sense?

     I think more possibly, the tests India has won with Tendulkar providing a century, i think its because someone else has played a more pivotal role. I’m a great fan on tendulkar and cricket but unfortunately its true

   this is ridiculous , most of his career inzamam had waqar, wasim, shoaib, saqlain to blow the opposition away, no wonder he has more centuries in games won. i am willing to bet that tendulkar has similar centuries that ended in draws because india did not have good bowlers.

   here are his centuries in wins.

   135 vs NZ, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63635.html
   Wasim an Waqar 16 wickets between them
   100 vs SL , http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63653.html
   Wasim and Waqar 16 wickets betwen them
   100 vs Zimbabwe, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63674.html
   the match was even, you can take it or leave it , big red mark —> zimbabwe
   148, vs Eng, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63716.html
   good one here,
   177, against WI http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63773.html
   featherbed pitch, again Wasim and Waqar took 10 otherwise would have been a draw
   200, against SL, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63833.html
   featherbed pitch, without an alround attack with Shoaib, Saqlain, Wasim, match would have been a draw
   138, against SL, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63874.html
   good one here , he did play well.
   112, against SL, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63886.html
   featherbed would be a draw, even Wasim Akram got a 100, again Wasim and Waqar take 10 wickets to beat the opposition
   114, against Eng, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63933.html
   good one here. good alround high scoring match by both teams
   105, against Bangladesh, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63946.html
   buffet match, 5 centurions,
   329 against NZ, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63989.html
   good one here, brilliant bowling by Shoaib akthar kaneria, saqlain, made it a no contest.
   112, Zimb http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/64016.html
   hey this is a good performance, —-> zimbabwe
   138, Bangladesh, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/64045.html
   heroic win, against a pathetic team, this is like ganguly scoring a century to save india from wobbles against namibia or kenya in World cup 2003 semifinal.
   118, vs India, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/64082.html
   good one here, i will give you this one, no two points about it
   117, vs SL, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/64106.html
   good one here
   184, vs India, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/64127.html
   good one here
   117, vs WI, http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/210368.html
   good one here

   If I count his centuries in wins

   good ones wins against teams other than Zim & Bdesh = 8
   winning centuries against Zim & Bdesh = 4
   centuries where a draw would have occurred if not for the bowling = 5

   Even going by your statistic, if we leave Zim & Bdesh, he has, 8+5 13 centuries in wins.
   and by your own stats sachin has 14 centuries in wins.

   If you look at sachin’s centuries in draws, many have come where india made a big total, and our bowlers could not get the opposition out, even the last one sahin scored 146, india couldnt get kallis in the 2nd innings and a draw resulted.

   if sachin had played for pakistan he would have had more centuries to wins ratio.

   i see one glaring problem with inzamam , he has no winning centuries against Australia or S. Africa.
   sachin has 5 against them.

   This is the reason inzy is not mentioned as a great player, good player, even chanderpaul has scored 8000 runs

   but yes inzy has been great against SL 5 centuries against Sachin’s 3.

   in my opinion, lara’s highs were higher than anyone, sachin has been the most consistent.

   Sachin Tendulkar is a great Batsman and i don’t think he needs to prove to the comments from his critics. He has performed well on highest level for more than 2 decades none of the player has done so well for so many years in International Cricket. One flop series doesn’t mean he is not greatest batsmen or cant score runs.
