22.1 Shoaib Akhtar to Ganguly, no run, short one banged in, decent
bouncer, slipping a touch down leg though, Ganguly ducks under it

22.2 Shoaib Akhtar to Ganguly, bye: FOUR, short one banged in again,
Ganguly ducks, again this climbs so much that Akmal cannot jump
high enough to catch it! Serious pace and bounce from Shoaib!

22.3 Shoaib Akhtar to Ganguly, no run, full one this time, spearing down
the leg side, Akmal throws himself full-length to the right and
fields.

22.4 Shoaib Akhtar to Ganguly, one run, fast yorker speared in on the
stumps, Ganguly watches that very, very carefully and digs it out
to the leg side. That is a quality response to a top delivery

22.5 Shoaib Akhtar to Yuvraj Singh, no run, short of a good length and
outside the off stump, left alone to the keeper

22.6 Shoaib Akhtar to Yuvraj Singh, no run, another top yorker speared
in on the pads, well dug out to the off side. High-quality pace
and good batting.


That was one of the most exhilirating overs I've ever seen. Yuvraj just mesmorized by the pace. Ganguly...he handled it well...but again the short ball did em.

You just said he ducked under them. They hardly 'did him'

Ganguly's pull shot was absolutely silly. He and Yuvraj were looking good and he really could have cemented his spot in the test team if he scored a ton today, saving India. Instead he played one shot too many and got out, ironically, to a short ball.

India in absolute trouble at lunch. 169/7, Pathan needs to dig deep and Kumble needs to support him.

India in a hole now. Hopefully, the tail will wag and they'll manage to cross the Pakistani score. If, on the other hand, the tail fails and India are behind by 50 runs o so then it's going to be a really tough ask to win the match by batting last.

No they won't be behind 50 runs as they still have 3 wkts left, unfortunately they won't be able to get a big innings lead which i was hoping for, unless IKP do a magic with the bat, but then he might run out of partners.Even a 50 run lead might be usefull to India, hope India manages more than that

Argh, saw Kumble's dismissal coming from a mile away. Surprised it took Akhtar that long to figure it out.

Wow, Shoaib is bowling some awsome stuff.

All tests in Pakistan should be played in Karachi or Multan.


:p

Younis dropped Pathan on 0. Those of you who watched it, was it an easy catch?

Relatively easy, should have been swallowed. One could forgive him when his hand was covered in blood though :p

Asif drops Pathan on the boundary.

Pathan has obviously decided to go for it now. No use hanging around and having the tail fall around him.

India should be looking for atleast 150 runs innings lead. Anything above that would be awesome, but a lead of 150 would probably give them a target of 100- 125 to chase in the last innings which they would be able to do that without great trouble.

I think Dhoni is gonna fire today, might get a ton, Yuvraj too looks in good nick and Saurav can actually surprise alot of ppl by getting a big score. Pathan is high after a great bowling spell and is likely to do well with the bat, while Khan and Kumble can chip in with useful runs.Hopefully India will get a big first innings lead:)

It's surprising how a prediction, with so many predictions in it, can be 100% wrong. Ah well, off to school for me now.

well it came at chest height, which can be tricky at times. that said, at this level these should be scooped up regularly. thank god he dropped it.

Prabhakar was the highest wicket taker in the series 16 @ 33.87 and with the bat he averaged 56. Let's see if Pathan can match that..

Why should we take a series performance. In his career Prabhakar averaged 37 as a bowler. Do you have an excuse for even that? 8-)
