Sachin? He's a both-ways-spinner I suppose...and obviously better than Kumble when it comes to turnCDAK said:

I turn it more than Kumble with the leg spin.. and probably the offies turn more than Harbhajan solely because they're more flighted, slower and less like grenades 
Guess the same applies to Sachin (Yes! legitimate comparison between myself and Tendulkar!)
However, Kumble and Harbhajan have much finer control.

yeah Katich batted sensibly, unfortunatley we got transfered to channel 9 news so i didn't see the last part of his innings.
interestingly many consider 400 to be a par score at adelaide, and we got it in day excellent batting by Ponting, some amazing shots, India were always going to struggle without Zaheer though.

If they had played, it would likely have been 600/4 at close because Ganguly, Sehwag and Tendulkar would have had to bowl so much...sachintendulkar said:

Seems like it was a good day's watching of the cricket! I would have been there if it wasn't for a intelligence analysis report I had to do.............still, I'll hopefully be there tomorrow which will mean that Sachin will be out there (I HOPE).
Ponting: Geez, what a player. Surely he'll never bat better than he is right now. 9 Test tons in his last 17 matches somewhat says it all.
Katich also looked great. Considering the form he has been in for NSW, I'm sure he considered that getting less than 100 would have been a disappointment. Still, he's starting to establish himself at no. 6 and if Boof is to miss out from now on, I don't mind if Katich takes his spot.
Mistake of the day: picking Kumble. Adelaide Oval has for DECADES been a finger spinner's wicket and most definately NOT a wrist spinner's deck. Tim May made the ground his own and traditionally, finger spinners have been the way to go.

Ponting is a God. Just got home and I see Ponting has been murdering the hapless Indians.
