Kallis and Prince at the crease. The worst partnership in world cricket. I'm gunning for Kumble now, knock em over mate.
How the hell are they the worst partnership in world cricket? Not every situation dictates scoring at four an over. Granted they aren't a particularly good partnership for this particular situation, but I'd certainly rather them than say, Gilchrist and Symonds, if I was setting a target or chasing down a very large one with lots of time still to play.

Same, if that happened it would awesome.
Yep. It feels like anybody's game, with the Saffies just in front - a couple of boundaries or a bit more rotation of the strike and India will quickly feel the pressure.

This kind of situation is really tough on the umpires too, who let's admit, haven't had the greatest match. So far today Harper's handled some of the ambitious appealing pretty well.

Do you expect any better from Sehwag? This may be good, injured ankle forces him to miss the next few matches! :D

Yeah, na look. Don't take "worst" so literally. They're both very good batsmen but I dislike them both (Kallis more passionately). When they're together at the wicket I lose faith in the game.

Heh, I'm quite the opposite. When they are at the wicket together, my faith in the game is restored. I change the channel in disgust when I see Symonds and Gilchrist at the crease together though.

Would've killed for 50 more runs.

Can't help but think this was a huge missed opportunity by India.

Hope the experienced Indian batsmen realize how disgraceful they've been. The selectors wanted experience for the tests ... these guys have played like stupid debutants.
