``He (Tendulkar) is obviously not in the best of nick and we want to stay on top of him,'' said the fast bowler. ``We are really trying to go hard at him early on, and so far it is working,'' said Williams. Williams said he was delighted when he had the Little Master dismissed in India's second innings. ``It (today's dismissal) was probably the result of my plan. I don't know if it was in the team plan.'' But the right-hand seamer admitted it was Rahul Dravid who again proved a thorn in Australia's flesh. ``He has proved to be the most difficult batsmen from our point of view. He is very patient and you cannot attack him enough also because he is very good at putting away bad balls,'' Williams said. The right-arm paceman did not think the blow to Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly at the start of the day was bad enough and was surprised to see the batsman walk off the field. ``I did not think the blow was bad enough. When he walked off, I was surprised.'' The bowler said he knew maintaining constant pressure on the Indian batsmen was the key to success on this kind of wicket. ``I had told myself at the start of the day that if I maintained the pressure the wickets would come. That is how it went.'' PTI
