^ Definitely it was a very good platform from Sehwag and Dravid.. i was hoping for a score close to 300 or so on.. losing key wickets probably made the difference..

Well I think Dravid got tired in the conditions, otherwise he could've scored quickly before Rana's brilliant death spell. Yuvi did well but the rest couldn't quite get big ones.

Sehwag is India's Inzy - hilarious English :)
If they want to speak in English, they should make some effort and try to take some English lessons.

With Inzi, it doesn't matter what is asked, the answers remain same. One could basically play the tape from his last interview and you wouldn't know the difference.

PS :- I am not trying to make fun of his English, but after a while it gets annoying to see them struggle with the language yet no effort to improve it, If Kapil could improve, anyone can.

Brilliant death bowling by Rana and Asif. (except for that blitz by Yuvraj, which, to be fair, was more excellent batting then anything else. The cut short he played for the first four was one of the best I have ever seen of its kind. Asif's reaction summed it up pretty nicely)

I thought Afridi bowled superbly as well. Even in face of some atrocious fielding he went at less then 4 when bowlers all around him were getting tonked for plenty.

This is still going to be an extremely difficult score to chase. If you bowl cleverly, it is very difficult to get hit around. The pitch is much more suited to the likes of Inzy and Younis then someone like Yousuf and Malik who like to force the ball around and are more liable to be done in by two-pacedness and/or uneven bounce.

You beauty! Afridi gone, massive danger man sent back to the pavillion.

Seriously Pathan is what, 21? 22? And he already has 101 ODI wickets.

Amazing. :)
