No problem Zaheer.Cover it up with bowling.

aab kia reh gaya i guess H.Singh should try his “deja vo” style shots and see if he can hid a couple of boundries !

mayra tu post hee complete nahee honey daitey Indian batsmen :hehe:

39.1 Oram to Khan, OUT: shortish ball, it flies up in the air and Astle
wanders around to take the easy catch

bus ab jaldi se indian inning rap up ker ke NZ should play defensively they still have a whole day to score 130+ runs.

In retrospect I think the strategy for the Indian team should have been to treat this innings as that of a one day match. Tendulkar/Ganguly etc should have played their shots freely. No point in holding the wicket for long when you know you are going to get out eventually on this type of wicket. That way India could have ended with a bigger total than they would now. I only hope they get to 150.. good for pshycological reasons too...

no they have 2 days...
But time is not important here.

Advantage for India is that they will get to bowl in the ecening today and again take davantage of morning dew.3-4 wickets here and there and it can change the complexion.

137/9...

Harbhajan hits a 4 and goes... 18 on 37 balls :( :(

Its easy to say that while sitting here while u watch and observ. Maybe they were thinking for a draw thats why they were playing defensive and as you suggested if they had played it like a one day game u never know it could have worst than this for example look at sehwag 4 4 2 4 W.

Or it could be the other way around, 10 - 12 boundries and indian bowlers come under preasure match finishes with 2-0 :)

Well then I guess they were thinking of losing :hehe:

Atleast Sehwag scored 24. Had he played that over defensively he would have probably got out for 2 or 3. That is exactly the kind of batting strategy I am talking about.
Playing for a draw - you must be joking.

41.1 Oram to Yohannan, FOUR, inside edge past the leg stump
:hehe: :rotfl:

Question, ignore my above posts. Now I know exactly whom I am trying to convince with logic and reason… carry on…

Dont make fun of yourself by saying that someone was thinking for draw.There are still 2 days left in match.
Comeon , I know you are not as dumb as UMAIR.

2 Consecutive 4 by Nehra and 150/9 India.

Ok I must be joking if going for a draw, but I am serious goig for a 2-0 series :hehe:

No I am not but I think u r and u r proving me right, just go to page 1 and look what I have posted. I thought today is the 2nd last day so keeping that in mind one could easily think of drawing the match but then you corrected me by saying there are 2 days left....muna u do sound dumb don't u :)

This Nehra bugger is a true all rounder...
Bad at both batting and bowling. Makes me wonder why is he even in the team ? Srinath would have been good on this kind of pitch.
