5 Highest scoring opening pairs in ODIs

#1 Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly

Arguably the greatest opening pair of all-time in ODIs

Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly are arguably the greatest opening pair of all-time in one-day internationals. The duo destroyed even the best of the bowlers and milked runs every time they stepped together to bat.

India's batting in the late 1990s and early 2000s heavily depended on the start these stalwarts provided and India barely recovered whenever the pair failed to deliver.

The veteran duo opened the innings together in 136 innings and scored 6344 runs at a really good average of 47.34. They shared 20 hundred-run partnership in the ODIs, a record which is very unlikely to be broken by the current generation cricketers.
