Sachin Tendulkar is on the brink of scoring his 100th international century and there could be no better place for him to do it than his home turf - the Wankhede Stadium - and that too in the World Cup final. However, there is no special plan for celebration by the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) if the batting maestro reaches his milestone.

"We had many plans of celebrating his feat, but the ICC does not permit us to do something extraordinary. Also, for security reasons, we are not able to carryout most of our plans," said Lalchand Rajput, MCA Joint Honorary secretary.

"We will certainly do something special (if he scores his ton) after the World Cup. We will be privileged to see Sachin score his century here."

Dhoni on fire..
THE way Mahendra Singh Dhoni was punishing the net bowlers during the practice session, one can expect the same old flamboyant and unorthodox batting from him. The Indian skipper was at his aggressive best, hitting the balls hard and high. A few of them even sailed out of the ground. He also played his trademark 'helicopter shot' - one that that we haven't seen him play in a long time.
