Tendulkar was stumped for the first time in his career by Ashley Giles
With India leading the three-match series 1-0 heading into the final match at Bengaluru, England captain Nasser Hussain realised the only way to beat India would be to get the better of main man Sachin Tendulkar, who had scored a hundred in the previous game at Ahmedabad.
He devised a plan which would have the cricketing world talking when he asked Ashley Giles to come over the wicket and bowl outside the leg-stump. The ploy left Tendulkar frustrated over a period of time as he could not find a way to keep the runs flowing and eventually he was stumped while attempting an inside-out shot, a first in his career.
