This used to be my question to my friends/colleagues in the past who scored aan international ODI 200. No one had a clue, when I said the answer had to run for cover.

Spitfire, thanks for sharing. Truly inspirational mail.

Your post is something that I would share with my son when he grows up.

@Maddy42 : Yes, Hoggy never took sachin's wicket after that and also the master blaster went after the poor bowler whenever he came on to bowl.
