Century #84.

"2006: Is it "End"kulkar?" was the headlines of Times of India. When the criticism was at its peak. When the goings were tough. When peeople were asking him to retire. 

But great people never give up. Winners never quit. He fought through the tough times. 

In 2008, scored back to back centuries against Australia. Won the CB series final and showed to the world that there is 
still some "Sachin Tendulkar" remaining in him. Its been 6 years since then but unfortunately, its going to end soon  
.
This innings against NZ was enough to shut the mouth of haters. He scored 163 off 133 when he was retired hurt. India
won the match and he was declared MoM.
