Rahane has achieved a feat which only Ganguly earlier had done, a 100 @ his first Lords appearance. Sachin even after 5 appearances failed to get a 100 @ Lords. The latter so far has not found time to congratulate his Mumbai colleague.

Sachin made century at LORDS in late90's in an ODI (Diana Memorial match) chasing a big target of 260plus when 2 wickets fell early that too against great bowlers like donald,kumble n srinath :)
though Sachin didnt score a t0n in tests :)
and rahane's two brilliant innings, 96in SA and 103in eng under immense pressure are admirable. flattrackbully dhoni cudnt play even a single Such brilliant innings outside asia till date...
Tendulkar and his "talent" was all marketing hype created by Indian corporates and foreign MNCs to sell their third rate products to an easily mesmerized Indian population!

Yes, The Indian Corporates Paid USD 1000 to opposite team for every Run. And that was approximately USDS 34 Million (Rs.170 Crore) for 34,000 Runs.
