CENTURION, South Africa - Australia's Brett Lee and Jason Gillespie both took three wickets as India disintegrated to 125 all out after only 41.4 overs in their World Cup Group A match on Saturday (SA Time).
Gillespie returned figures of 3-13 while Lee finished with 3-36.
Lee, bowling at express pace, removed Saurav Ganguly and Virender Sehwag cheaply before the miserly Gillespie struck with his first ball to remove Rahul Dravid.
When Gillespie later removed Mohammad Kaif he boasted figures of 2-2 as India's bright start ground to a halt against the pace bowlers.
Gillespie also claimed the key wicket of Sachin Tendulkar, giving him figures of 3-10 off 8 overs.
