Pathan: Excellent spell at all stages, unlucky not to have picked up more wickets

Balaji: Very wayward, did not have any control whatsoever, responsible for Mr Sundries gaining prominence

Nehra: First game in three-and-a-half-months, looked good and bowled incisive spell

Harbhajan: Cautious first day in eight months went well; heavier load lies next week

Tendulkar: Confidence from bowling helped while batting, spent useful time at the crease

Sehwag: Still way away from his best with the bat; his off-spinners not too hot

Ganguly: Useful workout ahead of tough games. As skipper, could have tightened screws on Bangla tail

Dravid: A couple of misses with the gloves, but a sharp catch showed his alert side

Yuvraj: Good sharp day in the field, guarded his area of play very well

Kaif: As usual covered the covers effectively, now he needs some batting practice

Laxman: Not much work; came in with scores tied, safe in the outfield
