After an unconvincing 1 off 21 balls against England in the first innings of the third Test, Tendulkar was booed by a section of the crowd as he walked off the ground; it was the first time that he experienced such hostility at any venue in the world.
India went on to lose the Test by a huge margin of 212 runs as England leveled the three-match series 1-1.
