so far its a disappointment for you.eindies 42/2 in 15 overs…
Windies 201 all out
India 63/3 off 18 overs.
Looks like an interesting climax building up to this match.
India 148/5, both Dravid and Yuvraj gone, Kaif and Sodhi in. Very intersting match at the moment.

sodhi gone too...twist in the tail?
India 148/6, Sodhi gone for 1.
With Kaif still there India should be in with a strong chance so long as someone stays with him.
AB Agarkar is same person who made a century few days back, or he is some one else????

yes..
Score - 168/6 off 39 overs
Req Run Rate pretty much available.
India is extremely good at stealing defeat from the jaws of victory... so this match is not over yet...
Fortunately that did not happen this time.
India WIN by 3 Wickets... not a particularly remarkable performance though...
Rahul Dravid retains his 100 percent captaincy record, winning his third one-dayer at the helm.
Congratulations to the Indian team. Well played. The final match of the series shoule now be a cracking contest as it will be the decider. Good luck to both teams.
I wanted India to win so we can have an exciting game 7.
See. I told ya. India will nailed West Indies down and made the series more exciting.
The Final Battle is near.

Well said but, how many people in Pakistan and India can say that? The people over their think that life is a game and cricket match is life.
India’s stand-in skipper Rahul Dravid breathed a sigh of relief after his side overhauled a modest West Indies total of 201 to win the one-day international in Jodhpur.
Both teams now have three victories in the series and Sunday’s game in Vijayawada is now certain to be a pressure-cooker affair.
“We have ourselves to blame for not winning this by a bigger margin,” Dravid said after India scraped to a three-wicket win with 22 balls to spare.
A 99-run stand for the third wicket between Dravid and Yuvraj Singh looked to have deen decisive, but then a clatter of wickets showed there was plenty of tension in the Indian camp.
“Yuvraj and I should have stayed in the middle and finished it professionally,” said Dravid.
“We’ve been batting quite well, and today we also bowled well,” he said. **“That makes me confident as we head for Vijaywada.” **
Windies captain Hooper said he was pleased at his team’s fighting spirit despite their loss on Thursday at the Barkat Ullah Stadium.
“This wicket’s bounce wasn’t as true as we had encountered in the previous five matches,” he said.
**"We fell 30-40 runs short of what would’ve been an ideal total on this pitch. But I think we still gave this game a very good try.
“For me, that was a positive to emerge from this game.” **
Hooper said the series decider would **“bring out the best from both teams.” **
This was the first low-scoring game of the current series, and the first time a bowler - Indian medium-pacer Ajit Agarkar - had emerged as the Man of the Match.
Agarkar, coming back into the Indian team after being dropped for the last two one-dayers, said he had managed to forget the mauling he had endured at the start of the series.
“It’s not been a great series for the bowlers, but one learns not to think about the previous matches,” Agarkar said.
**"I concentrated on bowling wicket to wicket, keeping the deliveries as straight as possible.
It wasn’t an easy wicket to play shots on and that sure helped me." **
