sehwag hits 150....cricinfo says he has converted last 8 of hundreds into 150s - hmm...nice
Re: 4th Test: Australia vs. India at Adelaide, Jan. 24-28, 2008
Sehwag gone
Re: 4th Test: Australia vs. India at Adelaide, Jan. 24-28, 2008
Sehwag is holding on the end....the last person I would expect in the Indian team ...
so with this Viru has a 'permanent residence' stake on the opening slot in tests and ODI for a couple of years to come...
If you think about it, Sehwag was dropped by Clarke (a sitter of a chance) when he had barely opened his account.
But...nothing suceeds like success....I guess.

unable to understand your point -
are you implying that we should not go ga-ga over this performance or you meant that his performance is a flash?
if it is former then I am not going ga-ga - I am not a Sehwag fan but the way things work in Indian cricket I was hinting that he would cement his place regardless of how he performs in his next ten outings...

bhajjji is out...
now some people are expecting Kumble to declare....for what fun may I know? are you expecting India to bowl Aussie out in 20 overs?

*Arey yaar....*not making any great point.....I just meant to say that Sehwag still remains a "lottery batsman" given that his 150 was not entirely chanceless.
Nevertheless, he is the guy who got us out of trouble here. And even if you don't go ga-ga about his performance, the newspaper headlines will.
Re: 4th Test: Australia vs. India at Adelaide, Jan. 24-28, 2008
A maximum of 21 overs remain....and even if India try very hard...they cannot lose this one.
Re: 4th Test: Australia vs. India at Adelaide, Jan. 24-28, 2008
With Sehwag's potential Man of the Match check in the bag, he can now fully utilize the services of "Eik rupay mein local call" (repeat 2x every 2 minutes and 40 seconds)
Re: 4th Test: Australia vs. India at Adelaide, Jan. 24-28, 2008
And the match is officially draw

Missing Rameez Raja, standing on the podium..
Re: 4th Test: Australia vs. India at Adelaide, Jan. 24-28, 2008
Now there is only one possible result - DRAW
So the Aussies take the series : 2-1
But , for once, I am proud of the Indian team...they have fought the Australians well......I would excuse them for the 1st test loss (since they went into it after playing just 1 rain-affected practice game). The second game was of course gifted to the Aussies by Bucknor (Symonds not given out, was crucial to the end result - there is no doubt in my mind)...
So, all in all.....very good performance by the Indians.
ditto
