Days of Grace

What will the NZ team be for today's game? If they rest Oram, it will make a big, gaping hole in their batting order.

Should let the eggs hatch first .... dont you think :)
Why let them hatch, when you can treat yourself to an omelet... don't you think :).

A great man [me] once said [right now],

"Array nawjawan dikha de duniya ko kitna dum hai tujhme, array nawjawan dikha de duniya ko kitna dum hai tujhme... World Cup jeetna, dikha de duniya ko, hai humare baas mein."

"Kal hai kisne dekha, parsow hai kisne dekha, kal hai kisne dekha, parsow hai kisne dekha, dekha hai to baas ek khwaab, ki meri team jite gi, jite gi ye WC ka khitab (title)."

Forgive me SJS, my hindi/urdu is poor, still I try I try :p.

Was Aamir Sohail's sideline interview with Allan Donald possibly the worst piece of television ever? Don't throw someone with an average grasp of the English language into the role of interviewer - it was terrible!

Nice. :)

Unfortunately instead of having our name once more inscribed on "WC ka khitaab" (the world cup title/cup) we may have to be satisfied with a mere mention in "WC ki kitaab" (the world cup book/souvenir) :)

The selection of commentators by Star Sports is like the choice of selectors by BCCI. They believe in proportional regional representation. Thus we MUST endure the token Pakistani and the token Bangladeshi, not to forget the disproportional representation of Indians. :dry:

It'l just be a matter of subbing him for Hopkins wont it? May mean that we get 4 overs of Martin but its the best option for our batting, which always needs strength down the order.

Huzoor-e-wala , pahlay aap semi-final kay leyeh qualify to kejeyay aur tub bhar char kay booliyeh. Munasib baat munasib muwaqeh par hi achi lagteh hai....Kaash yeh baat Shoaib Akhtar ko samajh mein aa jai, jo wamaqeh ki nisbat ko jaey baqeer hi labay bool bolta hai, aur akhi mein aik number ka ghada lagta hai.

Anyway goodluck to team India.After Pakistan the team i most support is Lanka, and after that its India (all asian sub-continentals..LOL), however i must confess that even though i'm a big supporter of Lankan team i'm usually more interested in Indian team and am of the opinion that India has more talented players than Lanka.

Just a friendly reminder guys. At least put in a translation. :)

Don't quite understand why Yusuf Pathan is on the bench for India.
The guy's allround ability is ssuited to this format and he hasn't played a game !!!!

Amazing that Agarkar's still playing --- he can't bowl and he can't bat....you might as well try Joginder Sharma......
