00:00Not in then getting out, but this crowd will love it. Just have a listen

00:50God of honor given to the master as he walked into that wonderful wonderful
00:57gesture that by the opponents salute the top class the West Indies
01:03West Indies ruled out for 182 there is a good chance that he might not bet again
01:10magnificent these are magical numbers test match we're going to get the big
01:15man out
01:17the single being cheered as well yes
01:41that's certainly played back and got the length and the width for it or do you
01:46try to get follow that's what I'm keen to understand a little bit short like
01:50this one the chart and there is no fielder there apart from a fielder at
01:55tell it off I think that in Sammy's factor is being
01:58placing spot on but this man's got 200 test matches experience
02:07what look at that for sheer brilliance opening the face of the bat against the
02:15that's a beauty where do you send all what a shot what a shot magnificent
02:23picture the ball look at the head so stiff in the foot goes to the pitch of
02:27the ball the bat face is open Wow bang
02:33futile dive thereby in the man at extra time look at it nice very very nice
02:41in Bell England's in Bell
02:47fine and it's gone for four stadium erupts again for a Tendulkar boundary
02:56Oh gorgeous gorgeous he's in form just watch this if you don't see another shot
03:03today just watch this that's a supreme shot
03:09he's looking to hit it straight the ball came in just a little bit and that late
03:13adjustment has taken the ball wide of the non striker
03:19just late adjustment that face closing just the last moment just a little bit
03:23this is the trademark in the official no need for a follow-through of the bad
03:29left elbow is doing it all such in some other watching him for the first time
03:33she's never watched him play before and that's the new key magical not a false
03:40shot in that not one false shot in that
03:51the crowd will be delighted at the enduka is batting 38 and he will bat tomorrow as
03:57well he is to try and knock him over cheap and destroy the party but just an
04:02amazing atmosphere here in Mumbai can hear the crowd is screaming for their
04:07favorite the little master everyone wants him to do well and I know I've
04:14said it a lot but the atmosphere is unbelievable and electric here what do
04:18you think I think if such you can get through this first little 20-30 minutes
04:21I think it's going to be set for a big one I'm putting him down for 200 harsh
04:26well there's been a bit of a gambler warning with ball in hand and otherwise
04:31now here we go the crowd they would have lined up all morning to come here
04:36to catch this little moment in history he does get the 200 I don't know if he
04:40gets out early they will still cheer him all the way back
04:46right bitch what are the West Indies do straight up front who's going to be their
04:51first man look like Tino best
04:55Oh

05:03what is the last time you played a pool shop that 159 for two
05:09well they've left the field open for that shot a lot of good off spinners do
05:12that leave points third man open invite the batsmen to play the shot
05:18Oh
05:23well he's played that very fine he's playing with the field a little bit here
05:28the men out where it's square leg midweek in a long gone he's made it very
05:32fine he's picked it up from almost outside off haven't he knew that the
05:37correction was going to be a bit fuller in that so he set himself up for the
05:40sweet shot and he's always played that shot pretty well would have been pretty
05:44stiff if it land on top of the keepers boot went straight up
05:49trust a bullet a thing that way it's all right Anjali
05:55she's never watched him play a single test match they've got at the hands up
06:01near their face everyone was
06:06Oh great shot to bring up the half century in his last test innings
06:13he dug it in short and then then look awaited
06:22119 scores of 50-plus
06:28the invigorated
06:35why they've seen half-century this next ball coming
06:42fine shot punch on the back foot he doesn't even move then don't go that's
06:48for for the taking influently it's been a terrific batting display by the little
06:54champion see the short front foot stride and so much time off the back foot
07:02down the ground he goes beats me up and into the boundary
07:10it's 208 for two tremendous shot punched and that's his
07:17favorite shot of a set batsman race to the boundary
07:23she get a little flick from Tendulkar
07:31Tino Best is pretty fine though he's not a deep backward square he's quite fine
07:37three push for one to mid-on
07:42no Tendulkar's got to go that is the end of this innings Tendulkar is on the slow
07:50march back there is a deathly silence here at the
07:54Wankhede Stadium Mumbai Tendulkar did not wait for the decision he knew he had
08:00just chipped it to slip and he's on his way back and once again like two years
08:05ago it is Darren Sammy who's pulled off a
08:07blinder two years ago 2011 at the same venue he had scored 94 and Darren Sammy
08:14took a real blinder of Ram Paul but this one was a very very sharp catch but what
08:19an innings what an innings from the master thanks for the entertainment for
08:2324 years it would have been fantastic if it would have been a hundred but such
08:30intent look up such in Ramesh Tendulkar thank you thank you thank you
08:38what a player may be the final time in this match cricket he has to walk back
08:49everybody stood up at the ground a moment of sadness and in the cricket as
08:53the master leaves
08:56look at him he is his biggest fan thank you for the memory Sachin we will miss
09:02you there it is I dare say there are lots of wet eyes at the moment
09:14all of us all of us have come here expecting a century wanting a century
09:21maybe maybe just got a little carried away with that shot it wasn't the shot
09:26not not one of them has left this is this is a spectacle I cannot remember a
09:33time when somebody retired from the game somebody's finished with the game it's
09:37now been well over half an hour 40 minutes in the game ended not one person
09:41has left I promise you if you haven't if you had a ticket today and you didn't
09:47come you have no idea what you missed
09:50do stay away photographers do stay away
10:14to me what to me one of the greatest aspects of the new this cricket it's
10:17been a wonderful journey to have seen him from the time he was 14 15 years old
10:21it's just been the enormous dignity with which he's carried himself then look as
10:26a master of the game make no mistake about it he's always looked upon the
10:30game as a servant
10:38to a lot of people in India I remember Anjali asking me why is why is all this
10:42happening why are all this outpouring and I think to a lot of people who
10:46wanted to look up to someone with hope in dark times the battle with Bradman is
10:51often drawn what Bradman meant to the world after the horrors of the Second
10:56World War I think a lot of people looked up to Tendulkar and often said in
11:00difficult times and Tendulkar got a hundred India slept well it was much
11:04like in the movies he allowed India to forget its misery for a while it's
11:08difficult times for a while and glory in the fact that an Indian could be the
11:11best in the world at what he did and I think from 91 92 when India were coming
11:15out of troubled economic times and we're starting to find their place in
11:19the world just realizing that they could be as good as anybody else in the world
11:24I think Tendulkar was was a symbol of what India could be there they go again
11:37this is the second of April 2011 but there's a difference in the second of
11:41April 2011 the captain stood back and let Tendulkar have his moment it was one
11:45of the great moments in Indian cricket and the captain knew it was Tendulkar's
11:49moment you never saw Dhoni anywhere there just stayed in the background now
11:52he's come out to carry Tendulkar on the shoulders I think was without Kohli's
11:57lines that day that he's carried us carried Indian cricket on the shoulders
12:01for 21 years it's time we now carried him and I think that's what they're
12:05doing
12:11a lot of you might be watching this telecast outside of India and you're
12:14wondering what the fuss is all about I think this is an indicator of what one
12:18man meant to a nation
12:22with Tendulkar it wasn't just cricket
12:29I think this is still wonderful spontaneous outpouring from the city of
12:35his birth and the city that gave him his recognition he's coming down now
12:41underneath where we are
12:48a lot of people have seen him that's an international cricket for 24 years to
12:52some of us have been very lucky to have seen that first test hundred in England
12:57everyone's got to think back to all those moments where were you when
13:08Sachin got his first hundred where were you when Tendulkar played his last test
13:11match where were you when India won the World Cup and I think you'll notice like
13:16he did today
