DID U KNOW...

 Sachin Tendulkar's lowest one-day average, by country, is against England?
(10 January 2002)

Arguably the best one-day batsman the world has ever seen, Sachin Tendulkar averages a formidable 43.73 in the shorter version of the game, and his onslaughts against various bowlers will live long in the memory of the cricket fan. One country, however, that has not yet weathered the brunt of his devastating best is England, a side that, ironically enough, has fielded some of the weaker bowling attacks in recent memory.

In 14 innings against England, Tendulkar has made 384 runs with a best of 91. His average stands at 29.53 - far, far less than his overall average, and just slightly lower than his next lowest of 33, against South Africa. None of his 31 one-day hundreds, and only two of his 53 fifties, have come against England; they are thus the only side against whom, in 10 or more innings, Tendulkar has not scored a century.

His averages against the other countries, even if the disproportionately high 140 against Kenya is taken with a pinch of salt, show amply Tendulkar's prowess in the one-day game. The Indian maestro will now be looking to the upcoming six-match series at home to set the record just that much straighter. If he succeeds, the England bowlers can then join the international club of players, including such stalwart names as Shane Warne, who have recurring nightmares about Tendulkar dancing down the track to smash them for six.
