God-like Tendulkar

There's not a great deal I can add. 200 not out in an ODI...and a strike rate of 136 - very special.

Can't resist a reminder that back in 2007 Indian's were discussing whether Tendulkar was past it. Perhaps this innings will stop the rediculous notion that batsmen that have a bad run of form in their early 30s should be dropped and/or retire? I doubt it....

Watched the highlights of the game yesterday. I think they showed him playing and missing 1 ball and not a single chance given. I don't think I've ever seen the ball disappear from the bat quicker - some of his ground strokes particulalry were over the boundary before the camera could even pick it up. His bat is branded as Adidas, don't know what it really is, but I wouldn't mind one !!
