Scoring a hundred is always the best moment for any batsman in cricket whether it is ODI, Test or the popular T-20 format of the game. Not only the batsman but even bowlers get delighted when they reach the three figure mark.
But often it happens when batsman feels the pressure of scoring a
century which results in giving away nothing but their own wicket. The term
which has ultimately become popular is Nervous 90 when the batsman fails to
score a hundred after getting so close to that achievement. Here, we present
you a list of those batsmen who were unlucky to get out mostly in Nervous 90s
in all the formats of the gentleman’s game.

One thing which is quite interesting is the difference
between the number of dismissals suffered by the number 1 and number2 in the
list. The difference just shows that the living legend Sachin Tendulkar could
have scored so many more hundreds in the International cricket although he is
still the leader by a huge margin as far as the numbers of centuries are
concerned. All the players in the list are regarded as the
finest batsmen of their time. Except AB de Villiers, all these batsmen have
retired from every format of the game.
