Tendulkar eyes 100th century in 2000th test

Sachin Tendulkar at the peak of his considerable powers can mark the 2,000th test at Lord's starting on Thursday with an unprecedented 100th international century at the headquarters of world cricket when India face England.

The only other comparable landmark is not promising.

Australia's Don Bradman, who endured the same pressures and publicity which accompany Tendulkar, needed just four runs to finish with a test average of 100 at the Oval in 1948.
