Rahul Dravid is one of the most respected Indian batsmen purely for his batting exploits in overseas conditions. He used to play the ball very late and was considered to be technically very good. He won many matches for India in alien conditions.

Although Dravid ended his career with a mammoth 36 Test centuries, he used to struggle to go past the nineties in the early part of his career. In fact, he started his Test career with a knock of 95 in England. By the time he came to the end of his career, he had got out 10 times in the nervous nineties.

#1 Sachin Tendulkar (10 times)

Arguably, the best batsman of all time, Sachin scored runs all around the world. He scored a century at Perth (considered to be the fastest wicket in the world at that time) in 1992 during his first tour of Australia when he was just 18. Sachin went on to score 51 Test centuries.

In spite of churning out so many centuries, Sachin had the blemish of getting out in the nineties on 10 occasions. If Sachin would have converted even half of those nineties into hundreds, his record would have been even more monumental.
