Dale Steyn looks back at one of epic Sachin Tendulkar centuries

South African ace pacer Dale Steyn was recently involved in a chat with James Anderson during a Sky Sports podcast. In the podcast, Dale Steyn looked back at his expensive Gwalior spell in 2010 against the Indian batting icon Sachin Tendulkar. Speaking about the match, Steyn claimed that he had dismissed the ‘Master Blaster’ before the batsman got to his double-hundred. However, the Protean bowler added that he was denied his wicket by the on-field umpire Ian Gould.

Dale Steyn further recalled that upon asking Ian Gould as to why the batsman was favoured, the umpire said that he was worried about denying Tendulkar his milestone in front of a capacity crowd. The umpire also expressed his security fears to the pacer at the time. Gould believed that he probably would have not made it back to the hotel had he raised his finger to Sachin Tendulkar.
