Hyderabad, Nov 5 (IANS) Sachin Tendulkar, two weeks short of completing his two decades in international cricket, scored a brilliant 175 as he crossed his personal milestone of 17,000 ODI runs in the fourth One-Day International against Australia here Thursday.
Tendulkar crossed the 17,000-run mark while taking three runs off Ben Hilfenhaus in 4.6 overs. Tendulkar now has 17,168 runs from 435 matches since making his debut in 1989. The 175 against Australia here was Tendulkar’s 45th ODI century.
