New Delhi: Sachin Tendulkar's magnificent 175 against Australia on Thursday night was not just his greatest ODI innings, but also one of the best in international cricket, feels Chairman of selectors K Srikkanth.
Cricket's new wonder boy wants to meet Tendulkar
Lavishing praise on the Little Champion, Srikkanth said despite ending up on the losing side, Tendulkar showed just why he is considered the greatest batsman in the world right now.
"Certainly one of the best ODI knocks I have seen in quite a few years. It's Sachin's greatest knock. I remember Kapil Dev's 175 against Zimbabwe in the 1983 World Cup and it would be at par with that," Srikkanth said.
However, the former player felt despite the marvellous innings, Tendulkar would be a disappointed man as India lost the match by just three runs.
Comment: Sachin Tendulkar - ever onward
"I feel bad for him. The whole of India must be feeling bad for him," he observed.
