Every cricket fan is familiar with the term "nervous nineties." It highlights that special time in a batsman's innings when a century is only a few runs away and the pressure mounts. It's a mental struggle between focus and the desire to accomplish a significant goal. Many people view a score in the 90s as a failure rather than a success. This list honors the batsmen who have been dismissed more times in the nineties than any other player in all international cricket formats, despite their extraordinary consistency.
