I was wishing some one else would start this thread, but hell no, no one wants to be the scape goat, so here I am, My instincts and gut feelings about this match is we are going to be spanked from here to down under.
My wishes are we can beat the Aussies from here to Down Under, lets see what happens, chances are I will have to hide my face from this forum for a few days, atleast until we beat Pakistan in the Platinum ODI.
And the best part is Tendulkar is supposed to Share the new ball with Zaheer Khan, Its a shame in a country of 800+ Million we have only one Cricketer
If I can provide some soothing ‘pre-match marhum’ then here it is,
I painstakingly wrote this tih$ and in 60 hits got 0 reply
**and then,
At the end of the match they would piggy ride each other to a local Pub or a tandori resturant in case of a Pakistan win. They would Laugh,
Joke and strangle hold each other with joy,but,well may be I just got bit carried away here, I’m very sentimental about these things. I have some natural intincts to know what is wrong and what is out of line to correct it.
Pakistan will win matches like any other team does, but to what avail.
If you don’t have the dominance of Yankees or the endurance of a cunning englishman, then it does’nt matter any more.

Please add ‘India’ after Pakistan/
Saber Aejaz bhai saber,Allah behter he keray ga :insha:
aray aejaz bhai, why are you worried and dejected…you are one of the biggest supporter of cricket who even watches pak-srilanka test matches late night…inshallah india will beat aussies and will restore some of its pride…and i am not saying this to pump you…i have a feeling that india will win…so cheer up…I AM WITH YOU…
Tendulkar is opening the bowling, come on now for godsake. How much weight can you put on one man. Personally I think Tendy is well past his prime. Dravid is the man India should look to now when they are in toruble.
0.4 McGrath to Gambhir, no run, hit on the pad, looked like it pitched
touch outside the leg stump, loud appeal turned down, McGrath was
convinced
0.3 McGrath to Sehwag, one run, good length delivery outside the off
stump, Sehwag goes after it and ends up with a thick edge,
difficult catch dropped at gully, went high and to the left
Hauritz, excellent diving effort but failed to hold on
0.2 McGrath to Gambhir, one run, turned down to fine leg, first Test
run
0.1 McGrath to Gambhir, no run, fuller on the pads, turned away, hits
the short leg on the shin guard and pops up, technically a catch
2.6 McGrath to Sehwag, OUT: bowled'm! pitched outside the off stump and
cutting in, Sehwag plays down the wrong line and the ball crashes
into the stumps, no footwork whatsoever, McGrath strikes early!
Jatai Jatai yeh bhee lai jayain
Gillespie to Gambhir, OUT: gone! good length delivery, pitched in
line and straightened, Gambhir is late and the ball hits the pad
plumb in front, loud appeal and the finger goes up immediately,
India in trouble already
Seems like Australia is having the time of their life. I never expected Indian batting line up to collapse like this. The sad part is that not all the Indian bowlers are playing so its going to be even harder to get the Aussies out.
I guess the only thing left that can save India now is rain.
The wall is still standing, but no one to support him on the other side.
