If India's hopes rested fairly and squarely on Sachin Tendulkar's shoulders, the Australians had an array of bowlers trying to dismiss the Indian opener. Glenn McGrath usually impeccable, came in for a bit of stick, as did his partner Damien Fleming. But Nathan Bracken brought into the attack struck a decisive blow, having Tendulkar caught by Steve Waugh at short cover in the 16th over of the day. Tendulkar's 38 ball essay yielded 62 runs, included 11 boundaries and gave India a glimmer of hope. That hope however was not to last long.
