Turb you are dead set the worst person ever, how can you miss out on the fantastic century. Such a gun innings tooo.

The pitch is a belter but India negated that by posting an imposing total.

The presence of a huge target itself sends shudders.

I expect Pak to fold out on day 3. Only one man stands between my prediction and a draw - Mohammad Yousuf.

Chasing 150+ on this pitch could get very tricky IMO. If Pakistan get bowled out before the end of day tomorrow, it may not be a bad idea to bat again, and get another quick 250 runs in 60 overs.
Pak are 154/5 now, India's got a lead of 460+. I don't see them making more than 250 this innings, so India's still got a lead of 350. Do you honestly see Pakistan making 500 runs if a follow on is enforced? No way.

India should stop being so timid and paranoid about being afraid to lose and just enforce the follow on.

What do you mean 'stop'? The last time they could have asked Pakistan to follow on in a test (1st test in Pak 2004) they did, and they won.

India dominating at the moment.

The England test when Kumble scored a century?

That was a one-off in a test where India were 1-0 playing the last test. Whether draw or win, they were guaranteed a series victory.

This is different. Yes India are 1-0 up, but if they win this they win the series. If they draw, Pakistan have a chance to level the series and keep the cup (whatever it is, IndianOil I think) as they won the last series.

I will be astonished if India don't enforce the follow on. They surely will.

I didn't mind their decision to not send England in again at The Oval this year. I disagree with their decision to not send Australia in again back in 2003/2004 at Sydney. I think we could have won the series (note could, not would) if Ganguly had sent Australia in again. But India just wanted to ensure they hold the Border/Gavaskar trophy I feel.

Kamran follows Misbah with a fifty of his own. Thank God for some fighting cricket.
