Sachin inspires India to a historic victory. Cricbuzz has a ball-by-ball account
Clark broke the opening partnership when he had Uthappa caught by James Hopes at mid-off, but Tendulkar continued his imperious form, dispatching the Australian bowlers to all parts of the large ground with ease.
Tendulkar was finally out with the score on 204 after trying to bunt a ball away for a quick single and being caught by Ponting, 84 runs after the Aussie skipper had spilled the earlier chance.
The Indians kept giving their wickets away to innocuous bowling.
India’s hopes of breaking 300 fell away as Gautam Gambhir (15), Rohit Sharma (2) and Irfan Pathan (12) all fell cheaply.
But in the end 258 was just enough to get them home despite Hopes’s heroics.
