fan-tastic tendulkar gets the perfect send-off in his 200th and final test.

India came to a standstill today as scenes like this were replicated all over the country when Sachin Tendulkar arrived at the crease in his 200th and final Test before he retires. The Little Master was cheered all the way to 38 not out at stumps on Day One of the Second Test after India dismissed the West Indies for just 182 and reached 157 for two in reply. Tendulkar will leave his fans in ecstasy if he completes his 52nd Test century tomorrow ¦We apologise to all cricket fans as we are unable to print live pictures from today's play. This paper, along with other British media groups, is not publishing any live pictures in protest at the Indian cricket board's refusal to grant access to certain major picture agencies which we view as a restriction on the freedom of the press [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
