No Kohli, despite both Dravid and Tendulkar being rested. Doesn't look like they've a mind to play him at all if Saha is ahead.

Or have Kohli and Ojha simply not arrived yet?

 

[Cevno]

Kohli will definetely be ahead of Saha but probably hasn't arrived yet or arrived just yesterday.

Kholey?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

E-Coli?

Well if India wanted an easy pitch and a weak team they got it. Be interesting to see how they go as there are plenty of them in that side who need to find some form with both bat and ball ahead of Wednesday.

heh, Northants giving the game due respect by playing their T20/U19's XI.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

They are going for promotion so you can't blame them picking a weaker side. What if the best players get injured in a meaningless 2 day game and it costs them?

 

[Anku31]

Gambhir-Sehwag playing steadily.

Definitely not criticising them.

It's a fair point either ways.India would like to play against a proper domestic side whereas the county team won't risk their best players for a match that is of no importance to them.
Moreover,they look to give their fringe players a chance against a top test team!

it's a green top btw. theres so much grass on the pitch.

Are you at the ground??

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Sehwag out for 8 according to a tweet.

 

[Cevno]

Sehwag to hopefully smack a century here.

Scorecard shows India 14/0 but why does on homepage of cricinfo they have a headline showing India lose sehwag early

Probably way behind, the 14-0 is after 5 overs so unless the Northants bowlers are Tim Munton reincarnated then they are about 15 minutes behind.

 

[Spark]

Aaand he's gone.

 

[Anku31]

Yes.Sehwag gone.
