hi friends.i didnt think of this earlier but in this test series,tendulkar got out in all five innings caught behind by the keeper or slip fielder.if i remember correctly during the tour to australia a few years back,he was caught behind on 3 occasions in similar manner and it was said when he scored a double hundred in that series ,he never once attempted the cover drive which got him out in the previous matches .
wish tendulkar did the same this series so he could have scored another ton.its kinda agonising when he scores 50 and gets out.

Yes, it is quite unfortunate that Sachin was dismissed after getting his 50's. I wished he scored two more 100's in that series. But all in the game.

Yes it is true in australia he was getting out while cover driving so he cut out the shot and scored 241 runs. But its easy tn cut out the cover drive to avoid getting caught in the cover region. But to avoid getting caught in the slips means he would have to stop playing any shots at all because mainly the outside edge carries to slip which is not generally intended
