Saqlain Mushtaq, the former spinner, recalled on how he managed to grab the wicket of Master Blaster in a Test match that was played in Chennai back in 1999. I conceded a few boundaries, but eventually, got him out. Sachin had sharp eyes and he could read everything. It was intimidating. You wouldn’t believe, but I was scared to bowl him the doosra, fearing that he might hit boundaries,” said Saqlain Mushtaq.
