   Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar finally touched the magical 17,000-run mark in One-Day International cricket during the fifth ODI
   Sachin Tendulkar against Australia at Hyderabad on Thursday.
   
   
   The moment Tendulkar attained that mark the packed vociferous Rajiv Gandhi Stadium crowd jumped out of their seats and erupted in jubilation.
   
   The 36-year-old scored the requisite seven runs to put another feather in his cap, which is already full of feathers but still managing to have some more. The Indian batting legend has 44 One-day hundreds and 91 ODI fifties under his belt.

   The diminutive Mumbaikar, who made his ODI debut Pakistan in 1989, is already way ahead of his contemporaries when it comes to accumulating runs.
   
   Rated as the world's best batsman after Australian legend Sir Donald Bradman, Tendulkar has an awe-inspiring Test record. In the whopping 159 matches that he has played thus far, Tendulkar has scored 12,773 runs at an average of 54.58.
   
   The veteran batsman has scored 42 hundreds and 53 half centuries in the longer format of the game.

   Great wrists, reverse sweeps and huge bat; for a guy that has played as an A - Grader since he was 16.
