London, Jun 27: Sachin Tendulkar came up with another big score for Lashings World XI, hitting 147 before electing to retire in a charity match against Reigate Priory Cricket Club, Surrey.

Tendulkar was supported by his skipper Richie Richardson who chipped in with 95 runs as Lashings declared at 292 for 4 in 41.3 overs after winning the toss and electing to bat on Sunday.

In reply, Reigate Priory made 197 for seven in 51 overs with Jon Gale top-scoring with an unbeaten 64 and Aleks Richards contributing 31.

Vasbert Drakes took two wickets for 12 while Aaron Pope was the most successful bowler for Reigate, snaring three Lashings wickets for 61.

Tendulkar, testing himself in match conditions before making a comeback to international cricket, had hit a strokeful 155 in his first outing for the star-studded club last Wednesday.

The Indian batting star underwent a shoulder surgery in March this year and had to miss out on the one-day series against England at home and the entire tour of West Indies.

He is looking to make a return to the top league in August when India play a tri-series in Sri Lanka.
