The Fear in Cricket: How did Sachin hit much of shoaib in fear?
Shoaib Akhtar had commented in his autobiograohy that Sachin was feared to face him!!
It is true that Shoaib bowled Sachin in their very first meet (Asia Test Championship, Kolkata, 1999). But, this was not the case always!!!
Sachin and Akhtar had faced each other in 19 ODI matches and 7 test matches. Shoaib could not beat Sachin always and hence, Sachin has no need for any fear!!
Among 18 ODI matches, Shoaib dismissed Sachin just 5 times. Meanwhile, Sachin scored at an average of 29.6 runs per meet. He had hit Shoaib for atleast 22 boundaries and 3 sixes.
(Details could not be retrieved fully because, the "face to face" data pertaining to the Carlton & United Series 1999/00 at Australia is not known)
Except for one ODI match, where Sachin was dismissed for 2, Sachin had sent atleast one of the sohaib's delivery to the boundary lane. Sachin continued this practise in tests also except in two tests where he was dismissed by Sohaib.
In tests too, Shoaib could not claim Sachin's wicket more than thrice!!
During World Cup Match 2003 at Centurion, Sachin Slammed Shoaib's first Over with two fours and a MASSIVE SIX!!! He scored 15 runs in that Over.
Did Sachin hit so much of Akhtar due to fear?

fame and the money he earns and the endorsements he has.When the All-Time

Akhtar has been most overhyped cricketer who was all talk and no action. He was not liked by even his captains and team mates. Now he is doing all this foolish talk just to create controversy to sell his book. No batsman can be not out in all innings and has to get out at some point of time. It is about to making runs and not getting out.

What Shoaib actually trying to say was everyone is scared of his ugly Frankenstein looks ,including Sachin.Add some Drugs, Chucking ,Ball tampering to it. Wonderful Combination ! An ideal normal Pakistani for you.
