Against a bowling attack consisting of Dale Steyn, Morne Morkel and Jacques Kallis, Tendulkar played a savage innings and flayed those bowlers to all corners of the ground at Nagpur to put India on course for a massive score. He pulled, hooked, played sumptuous drives and lofted the spinners when he felt like.

He faced only 101 deliveries and made 111 runs, which included 8 fours and as many as 3 sixes. He got out in 40th over with India at 267 for 2 and well placed to get many more.

However, they somehow managed to collapse to be all out for 296 in the 49th over. In the end, South Africa won a close game by 3 wickets in the last over.
