News: Punter lauds Tendulkar

The brilliant knock of 175 runs in 141 balls played by Sachin Tendulkar in the fifth ODI played between India and Australia has drawn praises from the rival team as well. Aussie skipper Ricky Ponting praising the maestro said that, "Sachin's innings was terrific. It was a great innings under pressure."

At the same time Ponting showered praise over his team mates and especially over Shaun Marsh (112) for scoring his maiden century in ODIs.

"We did the right things and won the game. Marsh was outstanding. (Shane) Watson (93 off 89 balls) did well too with bat and ball (3 for 47). (Debutant Clint) McKay bowled well,” said Ponting.
