Tendulkar's decision lamentable

Sachin Tendulkar began his comeback from shoulder surgery at Fenners - Cambridge University's ground - by scoring a gorgeous 91-ball hundred for the Lashings World XI side in a match against the university. However, not everyone was impressed by his decision to 'ease' himself back into cricket by playing five matches for Lashings.

Far from advancing his rehabilitation, these appearances may set him back, writes Peter Roebuck in The Hindu.
