The Aussies powered by Michael Clarke’s 130 and Moises Henriques’ 68 scored 380 in the first innings when they toured India for a 4-match Test series. Sachin Tendulkar’s 81 and Virat Kohli’s century helped India reach closer to Australia’s total, but it was the Ranchi boy who played a memorable knock in front the Chennai crowd. This was MS Dhoni’s first and only double century in his Test career as his 224 off 365 blew away the Australian bowling attack. Australia could only give a target of 50 runs in the 4th innings to the home side as India took a 1-0 lead in the series by winning the match by 8 wickets.
