Even Sachin Tendulkar's impending 100th international century failed to generate interest among the cricket lovers of the city as on the first day of sale less than 100 tickets were booked for the second Test between India and the West Indies beginning here on November 14.

According to figures available from the Cricket Association of Bengal, 98 tickets were sold from the counters marking a poor response for the Test. "66 tickets of INR 500 denomination, 21 of INR 1,000 and the rest of INR 1,500 were sold," said a CAB official.
