India struggled in the second Test at Ahmedabad. On a track that suited the batsmen more than the bowlers, Javagal Srinath and Harbhajan Singh were ineffective in the first innings. Kumble, thus, waged a lone battle, and won it by quite a distance; he snapped up the first five wickets to fall and went on to finish with figures of 51-13-115-7. He showed his real class by putting a lot of pressure on Marcus Trescothick, who came out after tea needing just a single to make a hundred. The googly did the trick again, and Trescothick was back in the pavilion with 99 runs against his name.
