Top stuff from Sehwag. Really, really good.

Fantastic knock my Sehwag. The most amazing thing is that 100 out of 130 runs have come right from Sehwag and his S/R has been amazing considering the circumstances. He alone has kept India in this, and has not withdrawn into a shell. This is his most important and best century that I have seen in a long long time.

He has really re-cemented his place in the Test side in my opinion for the next year of upcoming tests in India. His value to the side cannot be underestimated, as his positive cricket keeps the opposition on the back foot.

AWTA. I said a few things against him a couple of years ago, and while I still think some of them were correct, some were obviously wrong. I hope he keeps it up.

Dammit. >_<

Normally so good between the wickets too, I think the fact that he had gotten bogged down got to Sachin. Man his 2nd innings performances in this series have sucked.

Not really a wicket suited to his style of play is it? Unless he gets his head down.

Pitch looks great to me. Not much bounce or pace. Barely any balls keeping low or doing anything extraordinary. Ganguly owned Pakistan in India's last series itself on similar pitches and he looks pretty solid thus far.

Australia needs at least 3 wickets in the first hour for there to be any chance of a result imo. On this pitch that looks highly unlikely.

Indian lead is now 105. Maybe India should bat out the next session and if they can score like 115 or so runs, maybe they could declare and give Australia a little sniff and try to bowl them out?

wouldnt be a bad option actually... they could well bowl us out on this pitch with the 3 spinners....

Would have been India's session completely if not for SRT's brain fart. Still, one more session of 100 runs should take us to safe territory regardless of how many wickets fall.

Well we're behind the series, so there is no real downside. Yes, there is a chance we might lose, but think how awesome a victory might be.

With that said, with RP Singh out, and Kumble out with his back, I am not sure if its a reasonable thing to ask.
