Won't know for sure until the Indians bat but I do suspect a strong reply is likely. The pitch looks very, very flat.

Our ****ing catching....

Dhoni should have gone for it. Always the keeper's responsibility. Horrible match he's having.

As always a lot depends on Sehwag. He can score quickly and do it effortlessly even on this slowish surface. Gambhir isn't in form. Dravid prefers the ball to come on to the bat, so does Laxman mostly. Tendulkar usually adapts but he's not going to take the game away in a session or two. He'll probably grind out atleast 50 but that's not going to be enough by itself unless we build partnerships all the way.

Backing Raina to do decently.

Yeah he worked on his batting a lot when he was injured and couldn't bowl. Franklin syndrome, except he didn't forget how to bowl when he came back. :p

Top catch VVS, well played Paine. Zaheer has more than deserved his five.

This pitch should really suit Raina. Laxman to get bowled for < 10.

lol yeah, India finally take a catch. Zaheer with 5. Such a good bowler.

Dhoni has had a shocker. Lucky he's a good enough batsman to make up for his keeping short-comings.

Sharma needs to stop bowling no-balls.

India just aren't doing the basics right, well aside from Zaheer and Harby

Finally.

Jesus, India are so ****. Can't catch, can't bowl. Ground fielding is halfway decent, no Shoaib-style howlers at least.

Good reward for some really top bowling by Zaheer there. Was a good ball that got Paine too, had to play, good seam movement.
