Beginning the day at 116-3, the host lost only wicket of Ponting at 134 when Ishant Sharma made him caught by tendulkar.Ponting also had a good come back as he obtained a three figure after the long 34 innings but it was the captain who was shining in Sydney Ground the whole day.After dropping the Indians at 191 with the excellent bowling by Pattinson and Hilfenhaus, the Aussies  are at good positions and Indians have to struggle a lot in the coming 3 days to avoid Australia taking 2-0 lead in the four match series.
