One school of thought praises Sachin Tendulkar for having scored 49 very valuable runs to ward off the defeat that was staring the indians in their faces. Zaheer Kahan was awarded the MOM award for his heroic afforts to prevent a total collapse in the first innings - Zaheer with Harbhajan Sungh were the real match winners. With due respect to Sachin Tendulkar, let us all hope that he lays down his bat after attaining the glory of overtaking Brian Lara in the second test at Mohali. He needs a handful of runs, no doubt, but at times a handful could become one too many. Simultaneously, Anil Kumble should admit that his fingers are not creating magic any longer - even on his home ground, he is unable to perform miracles. His arms and fingers are not able to worry batsmen - they have mastered his bag of tricks. He should follow Sourav Ganguli and indicate which would be his last test ot test series.         ...

Australia Finally got India out, must be happy with that, but saw their lead slowly erode. With the bat still cannot score at a decent rate, Katich buried himself at the crease. Thier batsmen still can't play slower balls. India Will be over the moon with their tail. Have some good momentum and they are really pushing hard, which is a good sign. Still need quite a few runs on the last day to win, which is generally not how it works in India. Who is in front Australia should win, and if they do they can thank Haddin and Watson. India can still win, but it would be a huge victory. No team has scored more than 270 runs in a day on this surface, and that was before the cracks really came in. The draw is still a big chance though. Play of the day Zaheer Khan tried to run himself or Kumble out for his 50, and then followed that up with a couple of plays and misses before the big fella got his half century. Testicular moment of the day India, the whole team, the tail, dhoni as captain, and their general we can still win attitude. Until Watson and Haddin got together, and then their partership stole the show. Working Class man of the day 34 off 140 balls for the krab katich. It's not good working class, it's more like a coal miner who has worked his whole life for no pay and no security and then gets fired the day he finds out he has lung cancer. www.cricketwithballs.com... Aussie Haiku straight to your box ...

Haddin and Watson went about continuing their tempo, and with Kumble dropping Haddin it seemed possible. Watson then followed it with a superb on drive off from Sharma, next ball he was bowled plying across the line. That is the Shane Watson life story. Cam White came in and batted like he belonged. So much so that Ponting declared leaving India 299 to win. Lee started off with great swing, and the proctologist at the other end was all over India. But India was scoring in boundaries, so it was a good start for them as well. Then the chances started, Haddin dropped Sehwag on the dive, it was fast, it swung, and Lee would have loved it. Sehwag then played across one and gave Hayden a catch from Clark. The chances of India winning dropped by roughly 74.2% at that moment. Then Rahu Dravid played an attacking shot, infact he smacked one off his pads, unfortunately Ponting still has the ability to take horizontal catches. So Lee and Clark had one each, and India’s run rate was looking rough. Then Clark appealed for a ball that wouldn’t have hit any stump, and while Gotham City Gambhir hoped he would be given not out, Haddin threw the stumps down. Gambhir got back by the smallest bee’s dick on the smallest bee ever. I hate when batsmen forget about the crease during an LB decision, Watson did it yesterday. Idiots. From there Gotham City batted like a kitten drowing in a tub of paint, and Ponting seemed to enjoy a bit of verbals with him. Ten ...

Some facts reemphasized. Australia, the champion team, though vulnerable, is no pushover. It's veteran backbone still works. We also saw how Sehwag can irritate followers of the game - in a trice, from the fearsome, teflon-coated, rapacious marauder of bowlers, he turns into a manic puppet on a string drawn my mental forces away and out of the task in the blink of an eye. Like a robot seizuring on a brief power surge following an internal short-cut, the smooth simple polish of mystically drafted three-dimensional geometry of his shot-making ambiguates into a crude grass-cutting exertion, and a most complicated one at that! He gave Mitch and Australia the first boost of the ...
