Sachin Tendulkar gave a ‘karara jawab’ to Shoaib Akhtar

Sachin Tendulkar’s iconic innings of 98 runs in the 2003 World Cup against Pakistan is remembered for its significance. Facing a strong bowling attack comprising Akram, Waqar and Shoaib, Tendulkar’s aggressive approach helped India chase down 274 runs. Despite cramps and sledging from Shahid Afridi, his focus ensured India’s six-wicket win.
