A considerable part of Tendulkar's career has been spent playing lone ranger, a beacon of brilliance amid mediocrity. As can be expected in such situations, happy endings aren't always a guarantee. When they do come they are the icing on the cake, a tangible gift to make the effort worthwhile.

And playing probably his last Ranji Trophy match, Tendulkar ensured he was there at the crease and not biting his nails in the pavillion and his unbeaten knock also ensured that Mumbai did not suffer a heartbreak like they did in 1991 when Tendulkar last played against Haryana and Mumbai fell just two runs short.
