India were 404 for five at lunch in their first innings on the second day of the fourth and final cricket Test against Australia in Nagpur on Friday.
Brief Score: India 1st innings: 404 for 5 in 113 overs (Virender Sehwag 66, Sachin Tendulkar 109, VVS Laxman 64, Sourav Ganguly batting 80, MS Dhoni batting 43; Jason Krejza 3/195, Mitchell Johnson 1/67, Shane Watson 1/42).
Earlier, Sachin Tendulkar gave glimpses of his vintage form by cracking his 40th Test century which had eluded him for long as India recovered from early jolts to push for a big total in the fourth and final cricket Test against Australia on Thursday.
The 35-year-old Tendulkar stole the limelight with a flurry of strokes and capitalised on two dropped catches to pull the team out of the pits and steer the hosts to a comfortable 311 for five at close on the opening day.
The Indians, leading the four-match series 1-0 and needing only a draw to wrest the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
