V England India: Sachin Tendulkar left stranded on 99 hundreds after the dismissal of the Lord

Tendulkar, whose 51 Test hundreds and 48 in one-day international are the two world records, was LBW to England paceman James Anderson for a scratchy 85 minutes innings where he end in 68 balls and hit just the limit of a single.

"The little master" spent 38 balls on 11 and it is on the partition where it has survived an appeal for LBW by Stuart Broad replays showing would have been off. Yet, due to objections India ball-tracking technology, no is no criticism of the LBW decisions this series.

Tendulkar, trying to withdraw from the bat, was then abandoned by the English Captain Andrew Strauss in the first slip off Anderson on 12.

But two balls later fast-medium bowler Anderson suppressed a return to strike Tendulkar his strains and the umpire of the New Zealand time that Billy Bowden held for Britain to leave the India, chasing a 458 unlikely for the victory, struggling at 165 for five.

The output of the Tendulkar, in what could be the 38-year-old last Test at Lord's, left with a modest record in the "home of cricket" 195 runs in nine rounds, covering five Tests, average 21.66 with a best of 37 made four years ago.

Both the Australia Ricky Ponting and now retired West Indies star Brian Lara, two other great drummers of the past 20 years, do not also have to make a Test century at Lord's.

Next chance the Tendulkar to become the first batsman to score an international hundred 100 is set to come in the second Test of this series of four matches at Trent Bridge in Nottingham, Central England, from Friday.
