CRICKET
Chankesh Rao | Oct 19, 2024, 07:55 PM IST
1.Virender Sehwag – 5 times
One of the least surprising names on this list is that of the explosive former Indian opener, Virender Sehwag, who fell just short of a century five times. Renowned for his aggressive playing style, Sehwag was never afraid to take risks on the field.
Sehwag had a penchant for reaching milestones with a flourish, often resulting in his downfall. However, his willingness to take risks set him apart in the world of cricket, earning him a special status among fans and fellow players alike.
2.Sunil Gavaskar – 5 times
Sunil Gavaskar, also known as the "Little Master," was renowned for his exceptional patience and unwavering concentration, attributes that enabled him to play numerous marathon innings for the Indian cricket team. Throughout his illustrious 16-year career, Gavaskar was dismissed five times while in the 90s.
Regarded as a run machine for India, Gavaskar amassed an impressive total of 34 centuries in test cricket, solidifying his reputation as one of the greatest batsmen in the history of the sport.
3.MS Dhoni – 5 times
Renowned for his composed demeanor, MS Dhoni typically occupied the number 7 position in the batting lineup for Team India during test cricket matches. Dhoni's primary responsibility was to contribute crucial and rapid runs alongside the lower order. However, the high-risk nature of his role often led to his dismissal in the nervous nineties on five occasions.
4.Rishabh Pant – 7 times
Ranked just below MS Dhoni on the list is his long-time successor, Rishabh Pant. Pant is renowned for his innovative 360-degree batting style, making him one of the most unpredictable batsmen in the world.
Similar to Dhoni, Pant typically enters the game at number 6, showcasing his aggressive approach at the crease. His tendency to rely heavily on scoring boundaries has led to seven dismissals in the 90s, highlighting the fine line he walks between risk and reward. Despite this, Pant's fearless attitude towards dominating the game has proven to be immensely beneficial for both himself and the team. It is worth noting that he has accumulated more scores in the 90s than centuries throughout his test career.
5.Rahul Dravid – 9 times
Rahul Dravid is well-known for his patience and determination when it comes to playing long innings. He has the second-most nervous nineties among Indian batsmen in test cricket, with a total of nine dismissals. Interestingly, he was dismissed on 95 during his test debut at Lord’s in 1996.
One of Dravid's most famous nervous nineties moments was in 2003 at Melbourne against Australia. During the Boxing Day test, he was India’s highest run-scorer in the second innings with a score of 92. Unfortunately, despite his brilliant performance, he couldn't reach a triple-figure score as he was caught behind off Bret Lee.
6.Sachin Tendulkar – 10 times
Sachin Tendulkar, known as the "Master Blaster," holds the impressive record of scoring 100 international centuries. However, he also holds the less desirable record of being dismissed the most times in the 90s by any Indian batsman. Throughout his 24-year career, Tendulkar played in 200 test matches.
Interestingly, Tendulkar was dismissed 10 times between the score of 90 and 99 in test cricket, which is the highest number for any Indian batsman.
