Sachin Tendulkar became the first player to score 50 centuries in cricket’s elite Test format as he led India’s resistance yesterday against South Africa.
The 37-year-old right-hander, the leading run scorer in Tests and one-day internationals, brought up his latest hundred on the fourth day of the first Test in Centurion as India battled to save the match. Tendulkar raised his bat and looked to the sky after reaching triple figures.
