your opener sunny gavaskar will have a tough time over there, i am afraid!!! :)
Well, if you think averaging 41 as an opener is having a "tough time". Anway, Greenidge averages 56 and Richards 64 in England, so not a problem.

there used to be software freely available on the net a few years ago which could be used to pit imaginary teams against each other. from an in built database the software would compute a score using many variables and produce a score card if you name the players in your two teams. if we can find that we can see the predicted result of a test match between the two teams we've selected. wonder if it is still around!!

anyways, 41 in england is not a bad average. wonder why i always thought sunny struggled against england. may be his overall average of 38 against them was playing up in my mind. he was dismissed 12 times by underwood. greg chappell fell to the same bowler 13 times. if derek makes it, even chandra supporters like me should not actually complain!!
