ESPNcricinfo staff
<b>Sachin Tendulkar</b> (175) <a href="http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/416240.html" target="_blank">v Australia</a>, November 2009: An innings that Tendulkar described as <a href="http://www.espncricinfo.com/indvaus2009/content/story/433191.html" target="_blank">one of his best</a> was insufficient as India fell three runs short of the target of 351 in Hyderabad. It was a reminder of the 90s: an epic Tendulkar solo, and an Indian defeat Getty Images
<b>Tillakaratne Dilshan</b> (160) <a href="http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/430886.html" target="_blank">v India</a>, December 2009: The target was 415, but Sri Lanka were not daunted. Dilshan came out firing, and with an inspired Kumar Sangakkara for company, he powered the side to 315 for 1 in the 37th over. Sri Lanka got within touching distance, but they too, fell agonisingly short, by three runs in Rajkot AFP

<b>Shivnarine Chanderpaul</b> (149*) <a href="http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/267706.html" target="_blank">v India</a>, January 2007: Chanderpaul opened the innings and remained unbeaten at the end with a 136-ball 149 but West Indies still fell short of their target of 339 by 14 runs in Nagpur AFP
