Sachin Tendulkar, probably the most successful cricketer of India of all time, is willing to end his career only after getting 15,000 runs in test cricket and winning 2011 world cup for India.

In an interview with Wisden, Sachin told "I am not pleased yet with what I have done." He added that Sunil Gavaskar has told him to get this achievement. With more than 12,500 runs at an average near 55, Sachin Tendulkar has made 42 hundreds in Test cricket.

Sachin Tendulkar started his test career in 1989 at Karachi against Pakistan. If we see his performance in the last 15-20 years we find that his efforts and not only great but also extraordinary sometimes. This makes Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar special in Indian Cricket and World Cricket. Some of the great hundreds in test cricket are be following

Sachin Tendulkar's Great Hundreds:

1. 119 not out v England, Old Trafford, 1990- At the age of 17, Tendulkar managed to score 119 not out facing Malcolm, Fraser, Lewis and Hemmings on a good pitch for bowlers. India were chasing 408 runs to win, but at one time they were struggling 127 for 5, with only Tendulkar left as a recognised batsman. But with efforts of Tendulkar who batted for approximately four hours and partnerships with Kapil Dev and Manoj Prabhakar, India managed to save the test match with equal position of wining.

2. 114 v Australia, Perth, 1991-92 - It was the last test of a series which India were down 3-0. Australian fast bowlers on a Perth wicket were making difficult for Indian batsmen to score runs. On this ground Sachin played a great knock of 114 with 16 boundaries. It was a great effort facing bowlers like Reiffel, McDermott, Whitney and Hughes.

3. 169 v South Africa, Cape Town, 1996-97 - This was the second test of three test series. South African bowlers bowled out India for 100 and 66 in the first test at Durban. South Africans have scored 529 and India were 58 for 5 with Tendulkar and Azheruddin on crease. From this point the most expected result was an innings defeat for India. But Sachin played one of his greatest innings of all time to score 169 that included a partnership of 222 with Azheruddin that helped India to save a follow on.

4. 155 not out v Australia, Chennai, 1997-98 - This was the first test match of three test series. The focus was on the contest between Shane Warne and Sachin Tendulkar. In the first innings Warne managed to dismiss Tendulkar for four, and Australian spinners made it difficult for Indian batsmen to stay at wickets for long. From 126 for 1 India bowled out for mere 257. Aussies took a lead of 71. In the second innings Sachin came and scored 155 runs to frustrate Aussie bowlers that finally helped India to win the test by 179 runs.

5. 136 v Pakistan, Chennai, 1998-99- Chasing a score of 271 India lost their 5 wickets for 82 when Sachin Tendulkar and Nayan Mongia started a partnership to bring India back onto a winning position. Tendulkar was struggling with pain in his back but still played a heroic innings. Sachin got out with 18 runs needed to win. In spite of this great performance India lost the game.

6. 116 v Australia, Melbourne, 1999-00 - After losing the first test match of the series, India were 31 for 3 after Australia finished their innings on 405. Sachin played a great knock in front of Mcgrath, Fleming, Lee(debut test) and Warne on boxing day test match.

7. 155 v South Africa, Bloemfontein, 2001-02 - On first day of a tour to South Africa India ended the day on 372 for 7. This was a great achievement to score more than 350 runs in front of Pollock, Ntini, Hayward, Klusener and Kallis on first day of the series. Tendulkar scored 155 of 183 balls with 23 fours and a six. Sehwag(dubut test) also scored a hundred and was involved in a partnership of 220 runs with Tendulkar.

8. 193 v England, Headingley, Leeds, 2002 - Great knock from Tendulkar helped India to win a test match in England after a long time. Rahul Dravid and Sourav Ganguly also scored tons and India won by innings and 46 runs.

9. 241 not out v Australia, Sydney 2003-04 - In a four test series Sachin's performance in the first three test was ordinary. The whole attraction was grabbed by Laxman, Dravid, Sehwag and Ganguly. In the final test at SCG Sachin showed his class by hitting an unbeaten 241 that helped India to score a mammoth 705 for 7. Laxman also played a great knock and scored 178. He was involved in a partnership of 353 with Tendulkar.

10. 160 v New Zealand, Hamilton, 2008-09 - Winning a test match in New Zealand is a big task for Indian Cricket Team. In this match Sachin scored 160 to help India taking a lead of 241 and ensuring a positive result in the first test.

So, one can see that Sachin Tendulkar has played some memorable innings when Indian Cricket Team needed. His efforts are instrumental in the success of Indian Cricket in last 15-20 years.

Dutch supporters walk the fan mile to Holland/ Cameroon game in Cape Town June 24, 2010 www.cbc.ca Canadian journalist Anjali Nayar will travel across Africa by train, bus and foot (and when necessary by plane), and will arrive in South Africa just before the World Cup. Along the way, Anjali will tell the continent's stories through its favourite sport: soccer. For the trip, Anjali will bring only the essentials on her back (camera, flip video, computer) and in her hand — a soccer ball. Every day, Anjali will play soccer, whether she's on the beaches of Accra or stuck in one of Lagos' impenetrable traffic jams. Sometimes she'll play with children in the sprawling slums and refugee camps, other times she'll play with adults in the rich diplomatic quarters of major cities.

Uruguay - Nederland WK 2010 Voorbeschouwing

The prospect of a Uruguay versus Netherlands semi-final was scarcely mentioned in the long build-up to the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™, yet these are the teams who meet in the last four on Tuesday evening in Cape Town. Both are there on merit too, as they have performed consistently well from the first day, defended resolutely, and taken their chances efficiently at the other end. The winners go forward to the Final, while the consolation prize for the losers is the third-place play-off. The game Uruguay-Netherlands, semi-final, Cape Town, Tuesday 6 July, 20.30 (local time) After the drama and tension of their penalty shoot-out victory over Ghana in the quarter-finals, Uruguay are in the last four at the FIFA World Cup for the first time in 40 years. La Celeste fell 3-1 to eventual winners Brazil at Mexico 1970, and went on to finish fourth. The Netherlands, who staged a remarkable second-half comeback to defeat five-time winners Brazil in the last eight, previously fought through to the semis in 1974, 1978 and 1998. The teams' solitary previous meeting at the FIFA World Cup came in the 1974 tournament. Johnny Rep fired a brace as the celebrated Dutch ensemble spearheaded by the great Johan Cruyff won the group stage encounter 2-0. The Uruguay squad that day included defender Pablo Forlan, father of current La Celeste marksman Diego Forlan.
