An Australian tour Down Under is probably the biggest cricket festival for Indian fans. And this particular series was destined to go down in the history books even before a single ball was bowled.

The stage was all set for Steve Waugh’s last Test series, and every Indian wanted revenge for that horrific day in the World Cup 2003 final where Australia annihilated India.

With India drawing the rain-affected first Test, both teams were eager to draw first blood by taking the lead in the remaining three matches. And India's Great Wall rose to the occasion, scoring a double ton in the first innings at Adelaide.

Rahul Dravid totally outshone Ricky Ponting’s efforts, scoring another magnificent 72 in the second innings where India chased down 233 to take a 1-0 lead.
