This is an incredibly important metric when assessing a batters legacy because it showed whether they were a match winner or a stat padder. Unfortunately, Sachin was the latter. He was more concerned about scoring runs and maintaining a high average instead of winning games for India.
This is why he will never be rated as highly as Kohli or Ponting. They are match winners wheras Sachin is simply an accumulator.

List the succesful run chases in ODI where Sachin Tendulkar was not out? Also how important as a metric would you rate it for assessing a batter's overall capability and legacy?
Very important metric, even more important than average and SR. Especially when comparing opening batsmen with middle / lower order batsmen.
Yes. It is a very important metric.
You always expect your opening batsman to score quickly at the start, negate the spinning threat it the middle, go bonkers at the death overs and remain not out. Especially while chasing a target.

List the successful run chases in ODI where MS Dhoni opened the inning and remained not out?![]()
You could have just said - list one away century by Dhoni.


The other day I was arguing with someone who called Sachin a choker because he didn't remain not out at the end of the 2003 WC game vs Pakistan.![]()
Some of them will forever try to deny what the rest of the cricketing fraternity accepted more than 2 decades ago.How convenient that a player who was not a match winner holds the world record of receiving the maximum MOM and MOS awards in international cricket by a long, long way.
Maybe thats only because hes also played the most games by any player
The very fact that Tendulkar won more world Cup matches vs Pakistan than any other cricketer in the history of the game makes him the biggest match winner as far as Pakistani fans are concerned. If you are a Pakistani fan and denying that then you are deluding yourself from reality.
Lol why are Indian fans so hung up on world cup records. Does cricket not happen outside of the worldcups? Pakistan has a superior record when you take a overall view of cricket between India and Pakistan.

No need for indian fans to get all salty
Unless they think the OP has a point?
We all know tenda loved to play for records thats a fact you cant argue
