I Felt Second Super Over Was A Fair Way To Decide Winner - Sachin Tendulkar

Who would have expected that we decide the winner of the ICC World Cup on a boundary count rule? However, the game of cricket never gets backed away when it comes to surprising the fans. It happened right in the final of the world cup when England and New Zealand played the game like warriors, who have no intentions of giving up. Finally, on a boundary count rule, they declared England as winners, which certainly didn’t go well with fans and the Indian legend Sachin Tendulkar.

Following the tournament, Sachin Tendulkar has suggested that there should be second super over in place, which would declare the winner of the particular game. He added that declaring the winner based on the boundary count rule isn’t a fair option.

Super over is a fair way to declare a winner – Sachin Tendulkar

Well, after a lot of considerations, the International Cricket Council has come up with the same rule, which was suggested by the legendary cricketer of India Sachin Tendulkar. Meanwhile, one of the hardcore fans of Sachin Tendulkar highlighted the point via his Twitter handle.

Surprisingly, Sachin Tendulkar noticed the tweet and replied stating that he always felt having a second super over in place would have been very impressive, especially, for such a crucial encounter.

His tweet read ”I felt this was important as it is a fair way to obtain a result when nothing else separates the 2 teams.”
