Mumbai 136 (Rahane 51, Joginder 5-16) and 240 for 6 (Tendulkar 79*) beat Haryana 134 (Mohit 49, Nayar 4-38) and 241 (S Singh 63, Zaheer 4-62, Dabholkar 4-54) by four wickets
Scorecard
Sachin Tendulkar signed off on his domestic cricket career by guiding Mumbai to a four-wicket victory on a testing pitch in Lalhi. Mumbai began the final day needing only 39 to win, but batting had been the hardest during the first hour and Tendulkar only had the tail for company.
Tendulkar batted steadily, beginning the morning with fluent shots, before becoming more cautious once Haryana took the second new ball as soon as it was available. Dhawal Kulkarni gave him support, batting 72 balls for his 16, and he hit the winning runs by driving to the straight boundary.
At the non-striker's end, Tendulkar lifted his arms in triumph and as he walked back to the pavilion, he was carried off the field on the shoulders of his team-mates. He finished unbeaten on 79, having added 24 to his overnight score.
