Gutted we lost McIntosh as was hoping he would bore India to death tomorrow.

Another McIntosh-like series for him then, with scores of 0, 0, 102, 49, 4, 8 and an average of 27 (was unlucky to be given out on 49 though). Really is unique and should definitely stick around for another series.
Yes, but he got one in his favour in the first innings of the second test when he was in the 60's.

That one, IMO, didn't look out and had a very weird Hawkeye projection.

Cricinfo commentary:

60.3 Harbhajan Singh to McIntosh, no run, 83.2 kph, shout for lbw .. quickish, on the leg and middle stump line, from round the stumps , McIntosh is hit on the pad, trying to work it to the on side. It appeared as if it would go high over the stumps but the predictive eye says it would have hit the stumps. It didn't look out. It wasn't given out. That's that.

Hardly makes it sound as if he was lucky to survive it.

I thought it would have comfortably cleared the stumps, myself. McIntosh is quite a tall guy and it hit him well up his leg. Seem to recall other posters saying the same thing at the time, and that Cricinfo commentary says so as well.

Raina and Yuvraj are Sagittarians. They belong to family of 3-6-9 (Raina B'Day 27 Nov, Yuvi 12 Dec). Both are Careless, Irresponsible and Restless. Racing, rallying etc naturally appeal to such restless souls not Cricket, thats why both are succesful in T20s :)
So are Imran Khan, Beefy Botham and Fred Flintoff
Imran Khan and Ian Botham born on the Scorpio/Sagittarius cusp.

Flintoff is Capricorn.
I am referring to Western Zodiac. Not Sidereal ones.

Imran - 25th Nov
Botham - 24th Nov
Flintoff - 6 Dec

Saggitarius covers from 22-Nov till 22-Dec according to Western Zodiac.
See, this is what CW debates should be more like.

I am also reffering to Western Zodiac. A Cusp is the boundary line in space between zodiac Signs. It's a lot simpler to just list Eight date ranges and say that if you were born within one of those ranges you "are" a cusp. Saggitarius covers from 22-Nov till 22-Dec. Imran and Botham are born in Scorpio-Saggitarius cusp. Determined, forceful, passionate, Exciting and magnetic are Traditional Scorpio Traits (Adam Gilchrist, VVS Laxman). Jovial and good-humored, Honest and straightforward are Traditional Saggitarius Traits. (Flintoff)

Sorry I was wrong abt Flintoff's B'day, yes he is Saggitarius. He has been plagued with injuries, Sagittarius governs the legs, hips, thighs and sacral area. Yuvraj had knee Injury. Flintoff had warnings about his behaviour, indulged in some late night drinking in a night club. Injuries, comeback, Behaviour Warning and early retirement. :)

Geoff Lawson is Sagittarian, suffered from injuries as much as any good fast bowler.

Ricky Ponting is again a cusp case 19 Dec. He has both Saggitarius and Capricorn traits.

Cool :)

As far as I know the so called cusp is a misnomer.. you're either a Saggitarian or a Scorpio.. there is no such thing as a borderline case..

Certainly 24th and 25th is hard to be considered as cusp when the dates start from 22nd. Maybe you can suggest me some resources to brush up my knowledge in this regard. :)

This seems to be going around in circles. I have already mentioned more than once that Sourav Ganguly had better spinners. MS Dhoni has better fast bowlers and batsmen.

I did not say India had a weak side then; I said they had a relatively weak side.

If you feel that MS Dhoni has surpassed Ganguly in tests, that is your prerogative. He has played nowhere near enough outside India for mine.
Yeah, I agree with that.
