Chesterfield, England.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nThe former pacer described Tendulkar to be a dwarf batter and expressed the challenge of batting in the tricky conditions. He recalled that the Chesterfield<\/strong> pitch was quite bouncy in nature. Hence, someone who is not quite tall like Tendulkar, Bishop took it easy peasy while getting ready to bowl. He then went on to deliver a length ball which he assumed would prove enough for the Indian batter. However, the Master Blaster wasted no time and whacked him out of the ground with sheer ease.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n“I was playing for Derbyshire, and we were playing against India at Chesterfield. Never forgot it. We batted first, and we must have made… don’t know the exact numbers. Chesterfield bounces. You get in there, and it bounces. We were in the game, and this little…he was this high (gesturing with his hand), and he came into bat, faced a couple of balls, and I thought, okay, we’ve got this sewn up,” Bishop said in a post-match discussion with ESPN Cricinfo.<\/span><\/p>\n“As the target for India to achieve was 236, Bishop felt it was challenging towards the end when wickets kept tumbling from one end. Bishop claimed he realised Tendulkar could not hit him enough. The popular commentator claimed to have made the biggest mistake of bowling short. He claimed that the legendary batter hit him into a tree way over the deep midwicket,” he continued.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n“The asking rate is a little challenging towards the end of the game, and this little kid cannot hit me anywhere. I ran up, and I made the mistake of bowling a little back of a length, thinking I’d talk him up, and he hit me into a tree, way over deep mid-wicket, as far as I’ve ever been hit before,” the former West Indian pacer added further.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\nWatch Ian Bishop’s narration of Sachin Tendulkar’s story here:<\/span><\/h3>\n
