Tendulkar Territory

... a thundered six over midwicket, a classical straight-drive off the front foot - with a high elbow, minimum follow through, and slight nod of the head a few moments after bat struck ball ... Fifty off 50 balls, momentum seized, bowlers hassled, fielders guessing, captain experimenting, crowd in a frenzy ... welcome to Tendulkar territory.

From a report by Vaidyanathan (Oct 25, 2005) on cricinfo.com following Tendulkar's return to cricket after a six month lay-off due to injury.
