"We (MCA) have decided to present Sachin 100 gold coins if he scores his 100th international ton in Mumbai. We had a meeting with our president Vilasrao Deshmukh and he has agreed to the idea," Ravi Savant, MCA's honorary treasurer, told MiD DAY yesterday.
Though the value of the coin is not yet decided, Savant said it could be to the tune of Rs 25 lakh.
"We will soon decide on what should be the weight of each coin," he said. India have already won the three-match Test series 2-0. Tendulkar has scored 121 runs in two matches in this series with 76 runs being the highest so far. Over to the Wankhede!
