Match : India V Australia
Venue : 2008 tri-series in Australia featuring India, Australia and Sri Lanka
For all those who questioned Sachin's temperament on big occasions, this inning served as the perfect response from the little master. Chasing 240 to take a crucial lead in the best-of-three finals, Sachin played right through the chase to help India ease past the 240-mark with 4 overs remaining. The fact that Sachin's 117 only had 10 hits to the fence just shows how calculated his whole approach was.

Match : India V New Zealand
Venue : Bilateral ODI series, 2009 at Christchurch
Sachin was at his imperious best on the day and it was unfortunate he had to retire hurt on 163 with still 5 overs left. The world record and maybe even double hundred was within his sights. India made 392 and New Zealand played well but not well enough as they folded up for 334 in 45 overs.

Match : India V Australia
Venue : Bilateral ODI series, 2009 at Hyderabad
Australia put up massive score of 351, India fought all the way through and was even ahead of the Aussies at many stages during the chase. This was largely due to Sachin's magnificent inning of 175 where he single-handedly demolished the Aussie bowling attack. The sad part was he got out just when he shouldn't have and India lost momentum to eventually lose the match by just 3 runs

Match : India V Sri Lanka
Venue : Bilateral test series, 2009 at Ahmedabad
It was a match-saving effort from Sachin in a test where most things went wrong for India. The bowlers had conceded a record 760 at home against the Lankans and then had their backs to the wall while trying to avoid the prospect of innings loss. Sachin played out five hours for his century and kept the Lankans spin attack led by Muttiah Muralitharan at bay.
