Sachin to use lighter bat in Pakistan series:
Nov 4: As a desperate measure to prolong his cricketing career, master blaster Sachin Tendulkar is all set to use a lightweight bat in the high voltage ODI series against Pakistan which kicks off in Guwahati's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium tomorrow.
According to a source in the Indian team management, for the first time in his career Sachin would be using a lighter bat, ostensibly to continue playing cricket for some more years.
The new bat will be 100 gm lighter than his old bat and will weigh 1175 gm as compared to earlier 1275 gm.
With temperamental Shoaib Akhtar back in Pakistan team after serving a ban, the duel between Sachin and Shoaib, which started long back with the former's first-ball dismissal in the 1999 KolkataTest, is all set to sizzle again.
