Will Sachin Tendulkar ever get his 100th test 100?

How long can he go on for? He's 38 now and not had one for 9 months or so. Do you think he will ever get it or is he on his last legs now?

He'll have to play till he's about 60 to get his 100th TESThundred.

He has 99 INTERNATIONAL HUNDREDS - that includes ODIs, I believe.
 
He definitely won't get 100 test hundreds :lol:

I don't reckon he'll get that 100th hundred at all. Although, saying that, do India play Bangladesh or New Zealand any time soon?
 
70 not out at lunch. Flat looking pitch and Austrailia have bowled quite poorly today so far.

Out on 99 hitting his own wicket I hope
 
out for 80.

its a shame because he's such a legend i was looking forward to him getting his 100th 100 but it's dragging on so long im now at the point where i find it hilarious and i enjoy everytime he gets a big score than fails.

hopefully he will drag on trying to get it for another year or so then annouce he's giving up, will play one last game and score it then :lol:
 
Amongst all the fan fare of this 100th 100 has anyone actually noticed that despite India being in a poor run of form as a team he is still churning runs out for fun and I would be surprised if he wasnt the teams leading run scorer in this barren spell.

Class and no reason why retirement would be foremost in his mind. If he has looked after his body could play on into his 40s

It's an interesting point that, in England it seemed that everyone was judging his scores against a century being 'par'. Same in Australia, but in that series and this he has still produced some decent scores and been a tough wicket to take. Had it been anyone else or the 100th 100 not being at stake, all the comments would be along the lines of "good valuable scores, hopefully he can turn one of them into 100 soon" rather than "another failure".

I'd back him to get it at Adelaide on what's likely to be a very flat track.
