New Delhi : Veteran Indian player Sachin Tendulkar has once again emphasized the need to change the current rules in ODIs. Many believe that the current rules in ODIs are more in favor of batsmen. At present, one innings is played with two new balls in ODIs. A different ball is used from each end. Each innings is divided into three powerplays.


The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Tuesday reminded fans about India's legendary opening pair Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly. They have 176 partnerships in ODIs. During this time, both of them scored 8227 runs at an average of 47.55. The ICC posted the figures of these two on its Twitter and wrote that no other pair has crossed the figure of more than 6000 in ODIs.

Sachin Tendulkar wrote in response to this tweet that if both of them were playing with the current rules, they would have scored even more. Ganguly replied that 4000 more runs. After this, Harbhajan Singh, an off-spinner of the Indian team, also joined it and wrote that a few more thousand runs would have been scored comfortably. What a bad rule. The ICC requires bowlers to maintain balance in bat and ball.

He said that when the team made 260/270, the match became more competitive and in today's round everyone is scoring 320/330 and also achieving so much goal. On Harbhajan's tweet, Sachin replied on Wednesday and wrote that I agree with you Bhajji. I also think that rules and pitches should be taken care of. Sachin has long been a critic of two new balls in ODIs. He believes that this will not allow the bowlers to reverse swing.
