Mumbai, Dec 8 (IBNS): Ex-Indian captain Sachin Tendulkar on Saturday said India was on the driver's seat in the first Test against Australia.

He said Australia will need to bowl well on Sunday morning to stay in the game.

"As of now, India is in the driver’s seat and all set to take the game away. Australia need to bowl well in the first session tomorrow to stay in the game, otherwise they go to the next Test down 1-0. #INDvAUS," Sachin tweeted.
