Tendulkar's top ten
117 vs West Indies in Port-of-Spain, 2002
Sir Donald Bradman had compared Tendulkar to himself. The Indian came level with the Don, at least in one aspect, when he slammed his 29th ton in Trinidad to record as many centuries.
The two-paced wicket at Port-of-Spain called upon Tendulkar, unbeaten on 113 at close -- his maiden Test century in the West Indies -- to summon all his concentration powers to achieve the milestone.
Complementing his mental strength were the fierce cuts, pulls, sweetly-timed cover drives and those patented flicks through mid-wicket -- all the ingredients of a classic Tendulkar century.
The knock became doubly sweet at India won the Test to take a 1-0 lead in the series.
