Question, why the hell did Yuvi come in at 5 and Dravid at 4, when Dravid said earlier that he's looking to Yuvraj to win games, and that Dravid will bat 5 so the team will not be so top-heavy.

Was it because India lost 2 early wickets that Rahul came to the crease?

Full credit to Jimmy for owning India, but there's just something about his action I don't like. But if it works... :D

Agarkar to make 50.

It also makes a difference that Freddy is able to bowl in the middle overs and give us some extra firepower rather than bringing on a part timer and let them tick along.

Lets hope Broad/Anderson keep up this accuracy / pace in the other ODIs and this isnt another false dawn.

It really doesn't matter. Dravid is such a versatile player that he can score a 12 off 96 balls coming in at 3,4,5,whatever.

Flintoff at 92mph, but look at the load on that ankle. Now that it has been pointed out to me, its almost cringe worthy when I see it.

It's just asking for an injury.
