[MAJID-SHAH]

100/2 - 20 gone

 

[Xoib]

how many genuine bowling tracks do u see these days?

u r getting sides for 300 coz u r playing in helpful conditions.wen was the last time u played in India,WI or Pak.SL didnt give u flat tracks wen u toured last year

they are not helpful conditions they are sporting conditions conditions where a good batsman will score runs e.g Morgan and a good bowler will take wickets Anderson or Asif, a helpful condition is a raging seamer with indifferent bounce or a dustbowl that you prepare when you are 1 down in a series .Start watching more cricket to understand the difference between a sporting track a dead track or a bowler friendly track.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Matthews to SRT......lets see what happens !

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

106/2 - 23rd over

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Wally Hammond reached 7000 in 131 innings. Sehwag has done it in 134

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

2 runs to complete the over - 126/2 after 26

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

[MAJID-SHAH]

saurav, dondulkar, mastermind_quad - where are ya ???

 

[Amjid Javed]

India 133/2 and going at a healthy rate.

Matthews dropping Sehwag could be very costly!

 

[shan]

SL will have to pay for Sehwag drop. Other batmans get 100 in 175-200 balls but he only need 100.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

[mastermind_quad]

WIPLASH`D !! - its that man sehwag again - four more !! - much to the despair of the the lankans.

that drop will hurt them more .....

 

[shan]

Sehwag on fire, at this rate if India get lead of 150 then its game on. But they will have to bowl SL cheaply in 2nd innings because 4th innings totals are always tricky to chase.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Sehwag races onto 85* !! - in mencaning touch (per usual) - much to the depair of the lankans.

 

[mastermind_quad]

India RR 5.19 last 10 over its 6

[MAJID-SHAH]

The umpires take a light meter reading. Sehwag is on 97. they decide to continue

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Sehwag on 97* - expect a 6.

 

[shan]

ek veeru agar Pak team mein hoto u'll do wonders ...

[Saurav]

Veeru on 97 n Taufel calls it offissed:

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Sachin 40* - Sehwag 97*

 

[mastermind_quad]

Siref Veeru kiun? Sachin waghera bhi, akela veeru bechara kiya karen gha Veeru mera fav bat hain jhab se Lara retire huwa hain.

hehe..... he is genius ....

 

[shan]

It seem thats it for today.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

The ump and Sanga have a chat. Probably about the light situation. Now Taufel takes another reading and says that's it folks. Bad light stops play.

 

[mastermind_quad]

Veeru on 97 n Taufel calls it offissed:

koi nahi ..ab kal hoga jalwa.......180/2 badiya hai ...

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Simon taufel is a real fruit-cake !!

 

[mastermind_quad]

[Amjid Javed]

India 180/2 at Stumps.

They will be looking to maybe get 450-500 tmoz and quickly!

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

India are 245 runs behind with 8 wickets in the tank - sehwag & sachin well set out there in the middle.

 

[mastermind_quad]

from cricinfo

Jimmy: "Will Sehwag go for a six of Randiv to get to his century??? Remember Melbourne 2003 (195)! Remember last test match (99)! Had he reached his century in the last test he now (including today) would have had 5 centuries in 5 consecutive tests.
