Chasing totals of 300 runs or more is never easy. The pressure on teams batting second is extremely high and very few batsmen have the will to go after big totals of this kind. The one man who did have the gumption for India on the day was Sachin Tendulkar. Launching himself into the Australian bowling with gusto, Tendulkar played shots all around the park, lofting the ball, driving along the ground and running hard. Tendulkar raced to his half century off just 30 balls, hitting nine boundaries on the way there.
