How many more do you think we would’ve been able to score with the restriction of 4 fielders outside the ring and 2 new balls?” Tendulkar tweeted.Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly were involved in many match-winning partnerships making them arguably the best opening pair in ODIs from the mid-90s till the early 2000s.
