Sachin Tendulkar has played 463 matches in his ODI careers and Sri Lanka was one of his favorite teams. He played 84 games against the Lankans and scored 3113 runs at an average of 43.84 with 138 as his best. He scored 8 centuries, the second most against any nation.

Playing on subcontinent pitches, Sachin could play the Lankan spinners with ease and scored a lot of runs against them. The lack of any true fast bowler until Lasith Malinga also allowed Sachin to attack other bowlers who bowled at some pace. He scored 3000 runs against 2 different teams in ODIs.
