Sachin Tendulkar reached yet another milestone by scoring his 38^th century in his International Test Cricket, against the mighty Aussies. It is a sign of relief for the Master Blaster as well as his fans. For the past few times, Tendulkar found it difficult to reach the three figure mark. He got out in his 90s in both the versions of the game. People wrote off about the Master. Critics nailed him for his nervous 90s. But to the astonishment of his criticism, Sachin reached the three figure mark.

This is not the first time that Sachin has taken the responsibility in his shoulders against Australians. Whenever the Master toured Australia down under, he has ensured that he has picked up tons under his belt. Neither age nor criticism could stop Tendulkar from reaching the three figures again.

He helped India to stabilize in the first Innings by his good pace of game and he exposed the Indian tail to the mighty Aussie bowling attack, which helped Harbhajan Singh take his half-century.

To the pain of Tendulkar, his efforts by taking a century, ended up in vain. India lost the Second Test Match against Australians in Sydney.

We hope to see many more jinx-breaking innings from the Bombay Bomber!
