If the light is good, can't they play half an hour extra due to all the time lost?
God forbid they apply a bit of common sense to improve the chances of a result.

Anyway, I'd say it wasn't the greatest of days for India even though they're in a good position here. Some incredibly sloppy dismissals in the middle session. Mukund, Kohli, Laxman and Raina could really have cashed in against an attack with a bowler short.. only Raina got out to a quality delivery. Should look to bat one more session tomorrow.

International 12th Man
Today's predicament of the WI strengthens the thinking that the #6 should be chosen with a view to all-round capabilities (unless you have a couple of folks in 1-5 who can turn their arm).

If your WK is a good batsman, then promote him to 6 and go with 5 bowlers or a "utility" player.

In the Indian context, this gives an advantage to Yuvraj and Raina, and is a concern with Badri and Pujara - especially if Sehwag is not playing.

Windies would have to be happy with their efforts considering Rampaul was out.

Baugh turning into a star :cool:

Just saw the Laxman dismissal

:laugh:!!!!!!!!!!!

Poor guy, but that's really lazy.

EDIT: I hope Kohli was just unhappy at getting out, because he smashed that ball. (And he was stumped anyway)

had Winides selected Rusell instead of Edward's and Powell's they would have had their 4th bowler as well as their 3rd best batsman.

Yeah Kirk has already proven to be an average batsmen so Russell slotting in at 6 wouldn't have been the worst option.
