7 iconic venues where Sachin Tendulkar failed to score an international ton

#4: The Kensington Oval, Barbados

One of the oldest venues in the world

Only a few batsmen had the technique and grit to survive and dominate the West Indies attack in 1990s, Sachin being one among them. His best knock in this particular Caribbean ground came way back in 1997 where he ripped apart the West Indies bowlers to score a flawless 92 off 147 balls.

During that series, Sachin faced one of the lowest moments in his career as captain due to horrendous results and considered quitting cricket due to such humiliating losses.

#3: The Gabba, Brisbane

Australia's den, which always welcomes the touring nation with steep bounce

Sachin always picked Australia as his favourite team to play with because of the challenge imposed by them on and off the field. Scoring against Australia in Australia has been a daunting task for many cricketers, not so for this man.

The Australian team always brings out the best version of Sachin, rising above their banter and sledges. Sachin has centuries at all the venues in Australia except for Brisbane. Brisbane has always been regarded as Australia's den because of their formidable record at this particular venue.

The pace and bounce offered at this venue put the overseas batsmen in some awkward positions. His best knock of 91 at this ground came in a Triangular ODI series v Australia in 2008.
