SACHIN TENDULKAR Finally score 100's Century..
SACHIN TENDULKAR has become the first player to score 100 international hundreds.
The Little Master had been stuck on 99 centuries since January last year but reached his landmark century today in a one-day-international against Bangladesh in Mirpur.
Having twice been out in the 90s in the last year, Tendulkar finally got over the line with a clip into the leg-side for a single off the bowling of Shakib Al Hasan.

He was eventually caught behind off Mashrafe Mortaza for 114 from 147 balls.
It was the 38-year-old's 49th century in one-day cricket and his first against Bangladesh.
Tendulkar has also registered 51 centuries in Tests and is the all-time leading scorer in both Tests and ODIs.
England Test captain Andrew Strauss said: "Sachin is a player by which all others are measured over the last 10-15 years, and for him to go out and get a hundred hundreds is an amazing achievement without precedent — it's unlikely to be achieved again."
