Tendulkar using lighter bat


John Gloster, the Indian team's physio, is confident that Sachin Tendulkar would return to international cricket as scheduled in September.

Gloster said that Tendulkar, who is currently recovering from elbow surgery, had started to practice with a light bat and was making satisfactory progress.

"He is on course, there is little doubt," Gloster told Khaleej Times when asked about Tendulkar's path to full fitness.
