In the second Test of the three-match Test series during Australia’s tour of India in 2001, Sourav Ganguly’s Team India pulled off a nearly impossible comeback in the second innings after being forced to follow on. Australia registered 445 runs in the first innings as skipper Steve Waugh scored a century while Matthew Hayden left three runs short of scoring a century. India were bowled out at 171 in the first innings as VVS Laxman scored a half-century. However, an epic 376-run partnership between VVS Laxman (281) and Rahul Dravid (180) helped India overcome the follow-on and declared the innings at 657 runs. Harbhajan Singh spun a web around the Aussies in the second innings to help India win the match by 171 runs and end Australia’s 16-game unbeaten streak.
