*Official* - India in West Indies

He should be really approaching peak now but Sarwan looks completely shot. Only just turned 31 but he can't even get the ball off the square anymore. Painful watching a once top, top player look so horrible. Average will be the wrong side of 40 if he doesn't produce second innings.

Praveen is so good to watch it was interesting to see Tony Greig making a comparison with Bob Massie.

"The first Test had earlier stirred a hornet's nest when Dhoni had publicly chided the umpires as no less than six dismissals were deemed to have gone against his team. Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Harbhajan Singh and Dhoni himself were wrongly given out while the West Indies players were reprieved which opened a can of worms. All these decisions related to officiating umpire Daryl Harper. The Indians made little secret of their dislike for Harper who now has added his own fuel to the fire by stepping down from the final assignment of his international career -- the third Test of the present series in Dominica which begins from July 6."

That's why God invented UDRS, Dhoni....

This is absolute nonsense. Expressing an opinion on one issue does not debar anyone (living under a non-fascist regime) from expressing another opinion on any other issue, even if it be tenuously connected to the first one. Believers do not have extra powers or rights over non-believers in any form of civilized society.

I am of the opinion that what Dhoni said was unbecoming of the captain of a test team; he should have exercised restraint. It would have been equally unbecoming of a test captain who had wholeheartedly supported UDRS, ball tracking, whatever. No more and no less.

10.20am There's plenty of activity around the pitch but the ICC has just tweeted this, and a lot of our e-mails today have had to do with this incident. "ICC confirms an error by host broadcaster to review a no-ball call when MS Dhoni was out caught at mid-on"

Wonder if Dhoni is allowed to criticise this as BCCI was opposed to UDRS?:p

Chanderpaul and Samuels have batted quite well, I think. It's not been terribly easy for batsmen out there.
