- Sachin Tendulkar- A Bowling Feat.
Sachin is the only bowler who defended 6 or lesser runs in a last over of a match two times.
A) 1993 vs SA, SA required 6 runs in last over, India won by 2 runs.
B) 1997 vs Aus, Aus required 6 runs in last over, India won by 5 runs.
A wonderful as this is, it was his first and only over in both the matches.

- Deja Vu: India won the World Cup in 1983 and three years later, in 1986 the Indian side also won it's first ever test match at Lord's. This pattern repeated 28 years later, when India won their Second World Cup in 2011. They also won their second ever test match at Lord's three years later in 2014.
