Siddle doesn't think he has got hold on Tendulkar



PERTH: Australia's pace spearhead Peter Siddle doesn't think he has got a hold on Sachin Tendulkar, in contrary to the claim made by the home team's wicketkeeper Brad Haddin.

"The times I've bowled to Sachin, I probably have (been fortunate). I'm probably lucky enough I've got him two times in Melbourne. But in Sydney a couple of other blokes got him," Siddle said on Tuesday.

"We're building the pressure and whether it's against Sachin or against Dravid, or any of their batters, if I can build the pressure and it happens from the other end, we're going to get the breakthrough," he said.

Haddin had on Monday claimed that the Australia pacers, especially Siddle, has found a weakness in the armour of Tendulkar, whose quest for a 100th international century will restart in Perth from Friday.

The Victorian fast bowler also doesn't think that the pressure of scoring his 100th international ton is bogging down Tendulkar.
