India knocked off the 32 runs needed on the final morning to seal a six-wicket win over Pakistan in the first Test.
Man of the match Anil Kumble said: “This ground is very special for me. I think the boys responded very well. Everyone contributed in this win.” Kumble took seven wickets in his first match as India’s new Test captain.
Resuming at 171-3, India achieved their 203-run target after just 6.2 overs on Monday. Tendulkar, 32 overnight, was in punishing mood as he pulled fast bowlers Shoaib and Mohammad Sami for fours early in the morning. He reached his half-century when he hammered leg-spinner Danish Kaneria through the covers for a boundary and finished the match with a square-cut for four off Shoaib to be unbeaten with 56.
Tendulkar is now 746 runs away from Brian Lara’s record of 11,953 Test runs.
