Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar sometimes known as Little Master or Master Blaster

run scorer and century maker in both format of the game (one day

job and decided to concentrate on his batting.

Sachin Tendulkar on his day can destroy any bowling attack; the recent
example was in the ODI series against Australia when India was chasing 351
runs for victory. With wickets falling around he decided to take the fight
to the opposition and almost single handedly guided India home with his
blistering knock of 175 runs of 141 balls but unfortunately for India he got
out at crucial stage of the game and India lost the game by 3 runs and later
went on to loose the series.
So far he has played five World Cup for India but his dream is still not
fulfill as he would like to win a World Cup for his country. Hopeful in 2011
Cricket World Cup he will be able to achieve that.
