  3rd Test match (18 Mar - 22 Mar)

Sachin Tendulkar is the most prized catch as any opposition will confess. Slater's lapse in the field must be one of the crucial moments of this match. Tendulkar added 44 more runs to his individual score, making 126 before being caught behind off Gillespie who was putting together a brilliant spell of fast bowling. This was Tendulkar's 25th Test match hundred, one of the most valuable by all means as he defied the relentless Aussie bowling. His knock was decorated with fifteen boundaries and two hits over the ropes. Gillespie brought Australia right back in the match by picking up the wickets of Dravid and Tendulkar in the space of 26 balls as India were reduced to 468/6.
