It was interesting to see India putting in a decent score of 309 with 5 wickets at hand on day one of the Adelaide Test, the fourth and the final test of the series. Highlight of the day was 39th test century by cricket master bastsman, Sachin Tendulkar. he diminutive Tendulkar, playing possibly his last Test on Australian soil, produced a vintage display to score an unbeaten 124 and help the tourists reach 309 for five at stumps at Adelaide Oval. Opener Virender Sehwag (63) and middle-order batsmen Vangipurappu Laxman (51) also posted half-centuries as the Indians carefully set about building an imposing total on a flat pitch tailor-made for high scoring.
