Candles spelling out a message about cricketer Sachin Tendulkar are seen on a cricket pitch on the eve of Diwali, the festival of lights, in the northern city of Allahabad yesterday. Tendulkar, cricket’s most prolific run-scorer, will play his 200th and final test match at his home ground in Mumbai against the West Indies next month before bringing the curtain down on a glorious 24-year international career.
