Australian spin legend Shane Warne has little doubt that Sachin Tendulkar would get his 100th international century on the present tour Down Under, but he wished the iconic Indian batsman to reach the feat in the first cricket Test starting December 26.
"I feel Sachin would get his 100th century (in Australia) but I wish he does so in Melbourne," Warne said.
Warne, who in his entire career could claim Tendulkar's wicket only thrice in Test matches, has enormous respect for the champion Indian batsman whom he rates as the best willow-wielder of his time.
The first match against Australia would be Tendulkar's 185th Test. He has so far made 15,183 runs from 303 innings with 51 centuries at an average of 56.03 in five-day games.
Tendulkar also has 18,111 runs from 453 ODIs with 48 centuries under his belt at an average of 45.16.© Rediff
