India Take on West indies in the Second test at Chennai (Madras). West Indies won the toss and elect to Bat. Chris Gayle is gone and I expect India to romp home with a comfortable win.

lol....i wish if we would able to conclude the same for pakistani team!!
Kumble is in his great form, I must say.
I don't expect West Indies to strike back again. But there's always uncertainity about the future.
India 88/0
Shewag 60 not out from 63 balls.
West Indies will pay heavily for dropping Shewag twice this morning.
Third time lucky for West Indies
Shewag bowled Collins 61. A very good innings.
India 93/1
Now comes the rock - Dravid.
India 109/2
Dravis bowled Collins 11
Collins is bowling very fast and took Dravid with reverse swing. Failure for Dravid after scoring four consecutive centuries.
First test wicket for Collins, he is bowling fast around 140 km
India 119/2
Now Tendulkar dropped by Chanderpaul off Hooper.
West Indies bowling well.
At Tea India 134/2
Bangar 33 not out
Tendulkar 21 not out (4 fours - all sweetly timed).
India - 142 / 2
Sanjay Bangar Not Out 34
Virendra Shewag b Pt Collins 61
Rahul Dravid b Jermaine Lawson 11
Sachin Tendulkar Not Out 28
2 quick wickets - Ganguly and Bangar :)
needs one big partnership - Tendulkar is still there
155/4 Tend. - 33
Ganguly's decision was a poor one by the umpire.
India 180/5
Tendulkar bowled Lawson 43
India scored around 3 runs in the 30 minutes before Tendulkar got out.
Tendulkar has this knack of getting bowled to lesser known bowlers of the world,
This Lawson guy is playing his first test and has taken both Dravid and Tendulkar. He bowls fast and will develop into a good bowler if he keeps this up.
WOW!
Great comeback, I thought this test series will turnout to be predictable one. This match is finally getting exciting. Poor Windies are still lacking a decent spinner in the team, they worry too much about fast bowlers but they always forget about their spinner.
