Oozed character

His blazing onslaught on the speedy Shoaib Akhtar at Centurion in the 2003 World Cup is fresh in one's memory. The quicker Akhtar bowled, the faster the ball disappeared to the fence. And in 2008, Tendulkar batted through pain and agony to carve a match-winning unbeaten 117 at the SCG in the first final of the Australian ODI tri-series. He followed this with 91 in the second final at Brisbane and India achieved a historic maiden tri-series triumph down under.
A feature of Tendulkar's career has been the manner in which he has bounced back from injuries. Some wrote him off, but Tendulkar never lost belief.
More recently, Tendulkar's valiant 175 - the innings oozed character - sparkled in a losing cause for India against Australia in Hyderabad.
And now, he has done the impossible in Gwalior. Simply put, Tendulkar is a once-in-a-lifetime cricketer.

Could you please explain to me what "oozed" means in this context?

Though I guess it means "The innings was spearheaded by Sachin or something like that".
