One of Tendulkar’s greatest innings – and one of my favourites – was full of pathos instead of unlimited joy. In a see-saw battle against arch rivals Pakistan, India looked like they would lose badly batting fourth when Tendulkar came up with a marvellously controlled 136. Having mastered the track and the bowling, he looked set to take his side to victory when he suffered serious back pains and was out trying to clear the field. Even so, India needed just 17 runs to win with four wickets remaining, Incredibly, the bottom fell out and Pakistan won by 12 runs, leaving Tendulkar inconsolable in the dressing room
