Did Sachin deserve MoM today?

Re: Did Sachin deserve MoM today?

I don’t believe the “official criteria” is publicly available, but if you look historically its generally been the performer whose contribution impacted the match result the most. More often than not, this is a player from the winning side who scored the max runs or took the max wickets or both. Sometimes, it could be a player from the losing side who brought his team close to victory in a “close” game.
