In one of India's tours to England, legendary batsmen Geoffrey Boycott made a statement, which would not please Indian fans.

He said, "Sachin may be a great batsman, but he has never been on the Lord's honours board."

Harsha Bhogle delivered the perfect reply to that query: "So whose loss is it more, Sachin's or the honours board?"

Indeed. If there is one place where Tendulkar would have dearly loved to have found his name in during the course of his career, it was the honours board at Lord's.

And if the Marylebone Cricket Club were to be asked whose name they would have dearly loved to have seen on that board, there is a good chance of them quoting Tendulkar's name.

In five trips to the country, the right-hander's highest score proved to be 34 in Test matches and a mere 30 in ODIs.
