And that was further confirmed when the whole team got out at But all kudos to Zaheer Khan's seam bowling taking three wickets and Kudos to VVS Laxman's 96 runs knock in second innings. It helped India make228 runs thereby putting a target of 303 for South Africa. When CaptainGraeme Smith and Alviro Petersen started aggressively in second inningsespecially the former, it seemed as if South Africa will easily win thismatch by making 303 runs. Smith was quite adamant in punishing Zaheer Khanwhen he took 21 runs in his first 3 overs. So much so, Captain Dhoni had toremove Zaheer from bowling attack at that moment after that short but costlyspell. Sreesanth was the man who took first wicket of the innings by getting That heated argument probably disturbed Smith'sconcentration and got him out at his 37 made in 38 balls. Two quick fall ofwickets at 82 for South Africa in shape of Petersen and Hashim Amla byHarbhajan Singh and Sreesanth respectively started a ray of hope of winningmatch for India. Petersen's catch was superbly picked by Cheteshwar Pujarawhereas Amla unnecessarily fiddled with an outgoing ball from Zaheer andgave a catch to Dhoni. At the end of day three South Africa were 111 forthree wickets and the match was quite open for both teams to win with Indianeeding 7 more wickets whereas South Africa requiring 192 more runs to win with two more days to go. The match was certain to draw result in any team'sfavour. Kallis would have been out on day three itself if Pujara had taken his Veteran Kallis andAB de Villiers could not go a long way on day four when Kallis got out earlyin the morning caught by Sehwag on Sreesanth's bowling. Soon de Villiers toogot out lbw out by Harbhajan Singh at his score of 33. It was come and gofor Boucher and Steyn. It was Prince and Harris who stayed on for a smallpartnership of 27 runs worrying India for a while. Harris was clean bowledby Zaheer at his score of 7 to break that partnership. Prince had put a lotof resistance by staying on crease for a long time. South Africa were 182for eight at that time.

| Sachin Tendulkar the legend of cricket world with his twin feats Posted: 29 Dec 2010 03:12 AM PST 
Sachin Tendulkar cannot be defined by the numbers alone as he is nothing less than a legend in the world of sports and cricket but the number factor cannot be absolutely dismissed as he is one of those people who have a competition with their own self.2010 is a remarkable year and it will be an indispensable part for the crazy cricket lovers who witnessed two outstanding cricket wonders this year. In Gwalior's Captain Roop Singh Stadium Sachin Tendulkar became the first cricketer to hit a double century score during a one day match as Charl Langeveldt the South African pacer was steered by Sachin. But the champ never stops creating a record and has created many benchmarks that are outstanding and only elevate him on a new level that are much above his other team mates. This is what actually the case was when he scored the 50th century during the middle of this month at SA Super Sport Park. Sustaining the top spot is a very difficult thing for any sports person. Also Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his team played well this year. There have always been people who have had doubts about the long run performance of the team but Dhoni and his team mates have put all doubts to rest. Tendulkar added to team India's performance on the whole and added it to the memorable and Herculean feat. Tendulkar's greatness would have never ended even if even he would have never achieved these two great feats.
