The logistical preliminary approach is now all over, and cricket is talking immensely at the moment. Cricket supporters, or non-supporters, around the world await the start of this epic clash between two bitter rivals of the game, as they plan to disperse the diplomatic and political matters swiftly aside. Ticket sales roared heavily through the mere couple of hours when all the seat in the house was full. This actually is turning out to be the greatest series the two sides have ever met in and probably the one that will be remembered for a long time to come. Pakistan have great depth in their bowling department without doubt, and have started to show a lot of authority in their batting too. India on the other hand are fresh from their drawn series against Australia which they had been continuously crippling again and again. There is a very fine line between loosing and winning this series and it all depends on who has the extra strength to go all the way. In my view, Pakistan in their home ground, might just have that extra bit of impetus to claim it. With Farhat and Hamid, they have two brilliant youngsters currently averaging around 50 to open the batting. Yousuf Youhana, in my opinion, is probably one of the most stylish batsman out there in the whole of cricketing world and is the back bone of the line up coming in at 3. Inzamam, the Captain, is performing fabolously at the moment and is mixing his youths and veterans at the right place. I have seen Moin Khan play some cracker of an innings for Pakistan in the past and recently, and he can hit that cross batted sweep with much less effort. He is called a fighter, and rightly so, as he never gives up. Abdur Razzaq, boy ! I saw him hit those Sixes with effortless ease, when he made that 89 of only 40 balls recently for a loosing cause though, against NZ, as he had Stephen Fleming on the backfoot all the time. Then comes the pace attack of Shabbir, Sami, and Akhtar. Three demolition squad. There is no doubt, Pakistan have the strenght to win the series, it all depends on their consistency, which Javed Miandad and Inzamam have been crawling to achieve. Well, we'll have to wait and see who wins it, but if I a better , boy..! I would keep that money inside my pocket. |

Though tourists post a mammoth score of 335-6, India stunned by Pakistan A. A wake-up call to India. - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/other_international/3500508.stm |

Definitely a wake up call and even the best batting line up in the world, that India has currently, took a heavy toll right in their face. Signalled the arrival of a great series ahead and India will have to perform at their level best to claim it. Pakistan will be very hard to beat specially in their home surface, and if India has any chance of victory, it will be how their bowlers perform. Zaheer is their best option at the moment but, I don't think he is as lethal as Sami or Akhtar and he has yet to be known as the bowler who can turn the things around in no time, when needed. Though he is very consistent in line and length, he has to produce some exceptional performance for India. They will ofcourse be missing Kumble and Harbhajan. No question, they have an outstanding batting line up and currently in very good form. All of their top batsman scored some good runs against Pakistan A side except for Ganguly, but we all know how good he is. VVS laxman and Rahul Dravid again have a major part to play as the innings will be heavily dependent on how they perform in the middle. There is no question that India will make a super start to their Innings with Tendulkar and Shehwag. An early break through for Pakistan and India innings may tumble, provided Rahul Dravid and Laxman keep the innings in tact. Ganguly will be looking to disperse the Pakistani bowlers line and length from the get go and that is where I think the match will be decided. He knows how dangerous Shoaib Akhtar is. If he gets that extra 2-3 overs in the middle of the innings to bowl at them will full power, he will turn the match right on its head. Strategy of the Indians will play a major part, and we'll have to wait and see how they will go. For the fans around the world, a supercharged atmosphere, man what a great series. |

Krishna, Exactly what u've mentioned. Now, only few hrs left for today's match in Karachi. * Pakistan hope to exploit India's weakened bowling attack. * The hype has concentrated on Akhtar and Tendulkar. * Shoaib insisted he would not be focusing solely on Tendulkar. * Naveed-ul-Hassan is expected to take Shabbir Ahmed place . * India must decide whether to risk Zaheer Khan, who conceded 78 runs from his 10 overs against Pakistan A. *The two sides have played at Karachi three times in the past, with a victory each and one abandoned match. * Ganguly: There will be a lot of opinion after our loss to Pakistan A side, but international games are different from warm-up games. The pressure is different and equal for both the sides.

though india certainly have the edge on paper,its more of a mental game when they play against each other,and historically indians are big match loosers. but the indian captain Ganguly is a different kind,so which ever team has the hunger to win will certainly will. personally i give pakistan the edge. |

Only Few mins. to go for the match to resume. Finally, there is BAT vs BALL. .The series boils down to Pakistan's bowling against the Indian batting. Afridi probably would be facing the first ball of the match. India is suffering in the bowling department, with leg-spinner Anil Kumble and off spinner Harbhajan Singh both out due to injury (Kartik came in). Pakistan have a young batting line-up, apart from skipper Inzamam-ul-Haq and Yousuf Youhana, but their pace battery of Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammad Sami and Abdur Razzaq is among the best in the world. Again, Miandad vs Wright Inzi vs Ganguly Bat vs Ball AKHTAR vs 10DULKAR Gud luck to both teams. |

Before I say anything....Phew!! What a game!!!!! Congratulation to both sides. All the hypes, just lived upto expectations. I got to listen to one of the best matches I ever have. What a fantastic Innings from Inzamam. It was sad that it was for a loosing cause, but I think after the 1992 world cup where he played that swashbuckling knock of 60 against NZ, this must be his best one day innings of all time. The rate the Indians were going at, I thought Pakistan would be chasing a score of somewhere around 370-380. Pakistani bowlers did well to restrict to Indians to 349. They bowled well in the depth. I think Dravid dismissal on 99 was crucial. Unlucky to him as he was playing wonderfully. 349 was nevertheless a huge ask from Pakistan scoring at a rate of 7 an over. And when both openers fell early, they were in even greater trouble. But Inzamam and Youhana came together and put up a very good partnership. When Youhana fell for 73, I thought, it was all over, but Inzy carried on to play a wonderful Innings that earned him the man of the match and Pakistan, just faltered when required, but nevertheless a great chase. Good Match overall..!! |

Yeap, it was one of the most exciting matches that i have ever heard in the history of cricket with such a high target. Hats off to both the teams, especially to Dravid (thou' he was unable to make reach three-figure), and the Pak-skipper for his striking rate more than 100% and being man of the match. The batsmen from both the team did the job well and were able to pile up the scores in score-board. How about the bowlers?????? Both the teams are a bit worried/concerning about their bowlers, now. Pakistan bowling was badly punished and the extras of 38 was not a joke in such a crucial match. I have not seen the match but wat i came to know by going thru' the score board - they gave lotse No Balls. Hope the Pak pace bowlers wud focus on reducing the extras in the forthcoming matches. And more, the next match is in Rawalpindi, and i wish Rawalpindi Express wud show smth extra. Gud luck. Lack of Shabeer Ahmed was also bad luck to them, and the question is of course there in MIANDAD's mind whether to include Naved-ul-Hasan in tomorrow's match or not. Non of the bowlers have avg. rate below 5. The first question rose into my mind soon after Inzi elected to field inspite of winning the toss in a home soil. Giving pressure to Indian batsmen in the second inning in front of noisy crowd would have brought smth changes : my thought.Anyway gone things are gone. Inzy' reason of choosing fielding: the pitch would bring benefits to the Pak pace bowlers in the first 10 overs to destroy the Indian openers. However, Sehwag and 10dulkar punished them since the begining with high RR. The another battle b/n 10dulkar n' Akhtar gone towards pak side. But the real battle claimed by Indian. Just concentrating on the live score without listening commentary, and imagining the real picture of the pitch and stadium when there was a situation of 35 runs in 25 balls, later ... Moin Khan, an experienced player cud not make that... he might have forgotten at that moment, his coach's brilliant performance in 80's end vs India, who have scored huge six (needed just 4 to win) in the last ball of the match against Chetan Sharma, an unforgettable moment in the history of CRICKET. Winning was a mixture of delight and relief. Congratulations to both the teams. Looking fwd for tomorrow's match. |

on 15-Mar-04 07:13 PM
Very hard to call. If anything, I think it will be determined in the final overs of the innings. Because, India, with Tendulkar and Shehwag, will make a determined start. Then Laxman, who just returned making India's firepower even more stronger, and Rahul Dravid, fresh from the Century will flow the innings, but lack of finishing touch in the final slog overs, may just be India's downfall. We saw in the Karachi match that India could not score heavily in the final overs, as Pakistan took control of the match from the last 10 overs and their innings. It was all India until the 40 overs of their Innings when they piled up immensely and that was just enough to defeat Pakistan. It Rawalpindi, it is a whole different complexion. Inzamam should bat first regardless of what the pitch looks like, whether there is moisture for the fast bowlers to get that initial breakthrough or not. Pakistan have a good batting attack. So, they should utilize the condition and weak Indian attack to put up approx. 300 on the board. Then they can go after the Indian batting. Rawalpindi express, in his home ground, will no doubt be backed up by the fierce support and he will go all out, full force. If he can get that initial breakthough, India will be in pressure, and history speaks itself that India are bound to collapse on pressure. I think Pakistan have not been fully utlizing their bowling. Because in Shoaib they have the world's fastest bowler going full out, now in proper control of his action, and bowling in good accurate line and length. He just has not been backed up by the back up bowlers. Inzamam should make sure that his back up bowlers strike India, not with trying to take wickets in every delivery but with good line and length. He has the resources, he just hasn't been tandomly controlling them. Shoaib, has been bowling so good that his desire, drive, skill far outway anything bullish the fancy dan Shehwag can slog, and Tendulkar can cope. I think, Pakistan have this match in control. It will be themselves, if anything, that if they are to collapse. |

This wud be another vital match for both the countries. Indians gained confidence aldy and Pak not going to leave the stone unturned... Bad news to Indian team: Ganguly has mild fever and gotta less chance to play. Nehra who bowled a tidy final over to take India home by just five runs in the last thrilling match is out of the game too. Indian team's biggest bowling concern is the form of left-arm spinner Murali Kartik, who went for 74 from his 10 overs at Karachi. RANA from Pak wud be out in today's match. Hopefully AFRIDI will be in as a sixth bowler (and also either opening or middle order batsman). Laxman is back too. From Pak, Shabeer Ahmed will give support to the two opening bowlers. Day n Nite match or WHITE BALL match: Today's match won't be the same as it was on last saturday. Skipper who wins the toss wud go for batting first cuz the second inning will give more benefits to the bowlers as the ball turns nicely. Furthermore, since today's venue is Rawalpindi, and it's 100 th ODI of Rawalpindi Express. Dear fans, IMAGINE how wud be the envt. today over there. If Pak can hold this game today, the rest 3 matches wud be more interesting. Less than 2 hrs to resume the match. Tabasco, i will go to that link for LIVE AUDIO COMMENTARY. Thx for the link. |

Hats off to the Pak openers. Akhtar and Sami must throw the ball in line avoiding extras..... and must target Sehwag ( i feel he is now more dangerous than 10dulkar) and 10dulkar. However, India has a strong batting line up. If Pak cud reach upto 344, CAN INDIA make it??? This is Cricket, anything can happen at any time at any spell. Must be another interesting match... |

I think Pakistani selectors did a good job in bringing Afridi back into the team. With Afridi, they also found a sixth bowler that they were lacking for a long time and now the team looks stronger then ever. Every credit to Tendulkar and the Indian team, under the lights, they made a mockery out of the Pakistani bowlers. But such is the Pakistani bowling attack that the great batsman himself couldn't resist the defeat and hence the collapse, soon after Tendulkar was caught in the deep. That was definitely the turning point of the match though Balaji and Nehra batted well in the depth to make a very entertaining and nail biting match. Although I was hoping Afridi would go on to make his third one day century, but such is he that you never know what's coming out of the next delivery. Is he going for the big one down the ground?? Or is he going for a cross batted heap over mid-wicket? Although he is technically not that solid, he is a strong lad with great power and hits the ball immensely hard. It was a good innings nevertheless from Afridi who was well short of match practice and he made that required platform for Pakistan to launch their innings. Youhana looked solid, but unluckily he played on and Inzy followed soon after. But Younis, Razzaq and Malik steadied the ship to make a massive 329. Funny was the commentary from one of the summarizer who said Pakistan was restricted by the Indians to 329 and they did a good job. Can you believe it?? Somebody can say that a team got restricted to 329. Such is the high quality of one-day cricket matches thesedays that its almost impossible to call on scores and who will win. He was saying Pakistan should score around 370 to win the match, because of the strong Indian batting line up. And boy!! was he right?? The Indians gave everything they had and added a nail right in the head of this battling series which reads, the geatest ever. I wonder what the Peshawar crowd is expecting at the moment. They are I think, lightened up for another mouthwatering thriller. |

- By now, it is very difficult to say what a safe score would be for any team in the remaining matches. Huge scores of 693 n' 646 in only two ODIs has brought a different charm in the world of cricket and it's fans. Even till the mid 90's, score of 200+ was considerd a safe one to lift the stump. Now, it is totally different. Regarding y'day's match, chasing the mammoth target of 329 was not an easy task for the tourists in foreign soil under flood lights. Personally wat i felt is: Ganguly was not able to utilize his bowlers in time. Funny thing from Indian commentator was: "Ind playing with only 10 players, and Pak along with zaheer khan". It was a surprise appearance of Nehra in y'day's match to all though he was announced to be unfit. Even though he was unarguably the difference in this Indian attack. India would be very worried that he will be out for the rest 3 matches, at least. Neither Zaheer nor Balaji finished their quota. That probably cost India the game. The credit must go to the two openers, Shahid Afridi and Yasir Hameed, who hit strokeful half-centuries during an opening stand of 138, and set the solid foundation for Pak. Afridi, selected for the first time since Pakistan’s World Cup loss to India last year showed his own batting style and punished the Indian bowlers badly. But, inspite of being his great fan, i am always worried about his impatient nature. He cud have made triple figures... but that fellow huuuh!!! Inzy, the laziest batsman in between the wickets, became unlucky for Hameed, who was short only by 14 runs to hit century, being run out. MIANDAD wud have sent RAZZAQ instead of Moin Khan after a dismissal of Inzy. Anyway, Pak team looks better with this squad.... still not satisfying output by Shabeer Ahmed (expectations were high for him). With India, batting line up is perfect except it has to worry about its bowling department. Still, i wud say "INDIA is ONE MAN ARMY TEAM". Next match is a "day match" on coming FRIDAY in Peshwar. And, Pak has won most of the matches played on Friday. |

.taken from hindustan times - http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/919_620183,001800010001.htm Casinos offer online cricket bets Indo-Asian News Service KATHMANDU, 16 March Who says you have to be in Pakistan to enjoy the cricket series between traditional rivals India and Pakistan? You can do it in the comfort of six casinos in Kathmandu, which are offering free food and drinks, a giant screen to watch the matches and the opportunity to place online bets. You do not even have to set foot outside your house. The casinos will take care of your bets at the click of a mouse. Kathmandu boasts of six casinos, each one located in a five-star hotel. The oldest casino in the Himalayan kingdom is Casino Nepal at the Soaltee Crowne Plaza, while the most publicised is the Casino Royale at Yak and Yeti, where criminal Charles Sobhraj was arrested while playing. The other four are Casino Anna at Hotel de l'Annapurna, Casino Radisson at Radisson Hotel, Casino Everest at Everest Hotel and Casino Tara at the Hyatt. Nepal Recreation Centres, the management company that runs all the casinos, made gaming history this month when it became the first land-based casino to offer online playing services as well. The feat was possible thanks to the tie-up with a cyber casino in Curacao in the Caribbean, which is handling the site operations while the Nepal casinos are marketing online betting. One can log on to www.casinonepal.com or www.nepalsportsonline.com and place one's bets online by providing one's credit card details. Wins or losses are credited or debited from the credit card accounts, just as in online shopping. The difference is that all transactions are done in the Caribbean office. The online gaming takes advantage of the prevailing sports mania. In addition to the standard card and dice games played in casinos, it is now offering bets on cricket, soccer, tennis, golf and basketball. Saturday's one-day international between India and Pakistan in Karachi attracted some serious betters, with one businessman from New Delhi placing Rs.20,000 on Pakistan and losing it in one swoop when Inzamam-ul-Haq's team lost. "All the casinos in the Caribbean are cyber casinos," said the leader of the Curacao team who did not want to be named. "By forming an association with land-based casinos with good reputations, we are giving things greater credibility." The two online betting systems, he said, are intended mostly for the middleclass sports lovers who would like a flutter now and then but cannot spend over Rs.1,000. "These people can't afford bookies," said the team leader. "Online booking makes betting possible for them." Asians, especially non-resident Indians and Nepalese living in Singapore, Thailand, Dubai and Qatar are the potential clients. Nepalese are not allowed to gamble in the casinos in Kathmandu. The online betting system will enable them to have a flutter from anywhere abroad. Since one can play online using either dollars or Indian rupees, currency transactions too become easier. After cashing in on the cricket craze, the online operators hope to rope in still more punters next month when they launch online betting for the Mumbai-based Royal West India Turf Club that runs horse races. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Ganguly not convinced with Akhtar's action - http://paktour.indiatimes.com/articleshow/565378.cms "Once the score gets to 330 it's very difficult for the side batting second. Unless something drastic happens this is going to be a series of big scores," Ganguly said. " -- Then, how cud PAK reach upto 344 when they had to chase 349 ??????? Wat a shameful comments by Ganguly!!!! What made him feel that Akhtar's all the deliveries were illegal ??? Was the match without Umpires? ------ Another news for III ODI @ Peshawar: Taufiq Umer, is included in Pak squad, who had scored a match-winning 104 for Pakistan 'A' in the warm-up match last week. Now, who will be excluded so that Umer wud be in : question goes to the selectors. In my opinion, Saqlain wud be a better choice instead of Shabeer Ahmed (as per his performance in y'day's match). - http://paktour.indiatimes.com/articleshow/565667.cms |

CONGRATULATION to this thread, participants and the thread creator on hitting HALF-CENTURY postings. Sense, It's in the same thread. Anyway, LIVE AUDIO COMMENTRY - http://67.128.88.6:8080/ramgen/encoder/live.rm (give thanks to tabasco) The above link is fully biased to Ind side. It's not a real commentary btw.

Shabbir Ahmed STRIKES in the very first over of his first spell. Great loss to India. Laxman is back now. ==> 1.3 Shabbir Ahmed to Tendulkar, OUT: gone! gets a perfect delivery in and picks up a huge wicket! short of a good length delivery, pitched touch outside the off stump and moving away, Tendulkar pushes at it and gets a faint edge straight to the keeper, out for a duck! similing hurt, thx :) |

With the loss of both the openers, Indians started crossing their fingers. However, nothing can be said. If only two batsmen have good partnership, anything is possible. (let's see dravid n laxman.. how long they will go) Howerever, Pak bowlers dominating on the pitch. -As it is said that today's pitch contains grasses, and that wud bring benefit to the bowlers,.... and same thing is going on. Akhtar doing pretty well too. |

Yes he is Biswo. He is highly rated along side Tendulkar to deliver on this Indo-Pak series, and upto now he has done a good job for Pakistan. It is even to stevens as he got Tendulkar early in the first one dayers. In the Second One-dayers, Tendulkar came back strongly hitting a brilliant Century. Third one is, well battle lost for Tendulkar as he fell early. Akhtar can be dangerous with his express pace but at the same time maynot be good for Pakistan because India can take him for lot of runs in the One-day slogging. Upto now he's done a good job. |
| Biswo | Posted
on 19-Mar-04 12:04 AM
krishna, At least in this game, Shabbi Ahmed seems to have better record (3-33). I don't know how he does normally. Someone says Afridi may squash India as soon as he is in the ground. I agree with that. In all the games I have seen so far(about 5 probably), Afridi looked like an awesome hitter.I have a lot of respect for the guy. But, just a reminder, I root for India:-) |

Oh man. what to do in this 40 minutes...needra po lagera aayo....Biswo aja India harcha..sorry to say that hai...But nevertheless a good total when at one time things looked almost doomed for India...They gave something for their bowlers to defend..but I think Pakistan will win this in below 40 overs..thats my prediction..maybe less depending on how Afridi goes...if he hits a 50+ thats it, 35 overs and the game will end....

Lack of Nehra will be surely a big blow to Ganguly. Bhandari did well last time in Australia. Let's see how he will act there.... Zaheer, acc. to ganguly, yet to bring back his rhythm. Expecting today... Pak openers just have to play without any pressure and smoothly in their own style. The target is not so big compared to the last two matches. Afridi, the fellow with lack of maturity and patience in pak team , shudnot be over excited.... huhh... Miandad shud teach him seriously b4 he goes to crease. Maintaining < 5 R. R. / over is not a great deal. Just heard from Imran Khan, the pitch is getting out of moisture and that wud bring advantage to the batsmen. Herau ke hunchha aba.... can't say who will win until the match commences. This is cricket... an unpredictable game till 49.6 overs.... |

A very solid game once again, the only difference was that the bowlers made their mark instead of the flurry of runs we saw in the two previous games from batsman. I give credit to the Pakistani bowlers for their outstanding peformance in the field. Shabbir Ahmed proved why the selectors had so much faith in him by providing much needed early breakthroughs and grabbing three vital wickets, a prize scalp of Sachin Tendulkar. He produced a great delivery, pitched in line, slightly moving away, enough to get the edge from the batting maestro to take the heart out of Indian batting. Then he got one unplayable delivery to smash the stumps of Laxman to put the Indian batting in the reverse gear. Although Dravid and Ganguly looked to rebuild the innings, but they fell cheaply and had it not been for a superbly executed knock from Yubraj, Indians would had to have settled for a very low score around 200. Laxmipathy Balaji hit some brilliant drives of his own to pull the score to a respectable won. Pakistan started badly loosing the hero of Rawalpindi, Shahid Afridi, for only 6, but a very composed innings from Hameed settled Pakistan at one end. Although they were loosing wickets at the other end, Hameed went on to play a matchwinning knock of 98, deprived of a very well deserved century by a mere loss of concentration. It looked like a victory for India when he fell, but Razzaq and Moin came together and produced a partnership that guided Pakistan to victory, comfortably by 4 wickets to spare. Razzaq hit another brilliant half century, thoroughly supported by a determined Moin Khan at the other end. They did not opt to take chances as there was no need for it, smashing the odd ball for boundary and playing a knock of class and authority. |

Partnership between younis khan and inzy, and again, the excellent partnership between Inzy and Razzaq led the Paki to reach near to 300. Pak cud manage only 29 runs in the last 6 wickets. Partnership: Y Hameed - S Afridi 6 Y Hameed - Y Youhana 33 Y Hameed - I Haq 49 I Haq - Y Khan 105 I Haq - A Razzaq 71 A Razzaq - S Malik 17 S Malik - S Akhtar 7 S Akhtar - M Sami 4 M Sami - S Ahmed 1* Is it true? =============================================== Ist match: Inzy made century, Pak lost. 2nd match: Tendulkar made century, India lost. 3rd match: Hameed cud not make century (98), Pak won. 4th match: Inzy made another century, PAK MAY LOOSE TODAY. ================================================== An Indian cricket fan waves her national flag as she cheers her team at the fourth one-day international between India and Pakistan in Lahore.

. a very interesting match again. even though indians lost some of their early wickets, they never let their RR go below required and that made the win look easy at the end. this match truly goes to dravid and kaif. dravid proved once again that he is mr. reliable. half of the credit is due on pakistani bowlers for their pathetic performance. as i said earlier indians were playing with 12 batsmen, mr. extra who made a lovely 28 runs and gave indians extra 5 overs to bat. indians really took away the match from pakistanis. inzi should come up with new ideas and tricks for the next match. eagerly waiting for the grand finale "catches win matches unless they are no ball" :) |
| bardan | Posted
on 21-Mar-04 10:52 AM
the key to india win today,is that they didnt let the run rate to fall,their counterattack was very good indeed,though kaif and dravid did take india to the end,but yuvraj's aggressive intent also played a role. regarding the indian bowling,they finally bowled to their field,especially murali kartik was bowling a leg line with fielders onthe leg side and he did bowl quite well,one might argue it was a defensive tactic,but when it works who cares. pakistan have to work on their bowling,they have immense talent but lack the discipline,no use bowling 100 mile/hr when u bowl that many wides and no balls. anyways the final has been set up ideally,lets see if the indians choke again. |
| krishna | Posted
on 21-Mar-04 11:20 AM
Ok, here is the equation to yesterday's win and it quite surprised me when I woke up in the morning to look at the scoreboard and examine what had hapenned: 1) Firstly, Pakistan didnot start good at all and the early loss of wickets put them on the back foot right from the word go. 2) It was a brilliant century from the captain again Inzamam, which was once again for a loosing cause. 3) Although they smashed 95 of the last 10 overs, it looked not enough considering the great Indian batting line up. Above is ok. But, Here comes the blast that I quite didnot understand. I looked at the scoreboard and India had finished their innings exactly at 45 overs. That means they still had 5 overs. So a score of somewhere around 350 would still have been possible to chase for India. I thought it was a tremendous start from Tendulkar and Shehwag and possibly a handsome innings from Dravid and Laxman. Then I saw Tendulkar was out for only 7(13). It must be Shewag, what?? He only scored 26 of 29 balls. If it had been 12-13 balls, I would have thought they started good. But this is ridiculous they were at one time 94-4. Laxman had scored 20 before a shoaib ripper had ripped him. Ganguly was out on 20s too. Then what hapenned. How did they win it and that too right on 45 overs mark. So the three batsman must have done tremendously, one of them must have went onto make a thrilling century of less balls mind you. No! that was not to be either. Rahul Dravid had scored a very patient 76(92) and kaif 71(77). None of them a swashbuckling knock if you look at the balls faced by them. Yubraj Singh played a run a ball innings. But how can this be possible?? Only two bowlers for Pakistan got the treatment and rest of them have a pretty good figures. 295 is not a joke at all. They got their with 5 overs to spare. Ok I will give 37 was extras, but it doesn't seem quite possible to me. Well atleast if you thoroughly look at the scoreboard. It hasn't still convinced me but maybe because I am not supporting India in this enthralling series and has had me thrilled since the start. Sorry friends, missed the date completely and lo!! I was thinking it was tonight. But anyways, the next one at Lahore, will not be missed. |

on 21-Mar-04 06:32 PM
. Firstly, sad to hear that Krishna and Bishwo were in confusion regarding the time. Pls, go thru' the itinerary for the 3rd ODI. Again, it's day n nite. Okay, regarding match, what i felt by listening the live commentary and from the live score: As well begun is half done, Pak were not able to utilize the first 15 overs (when the fielders were around the first circle) as the UNRELIABLE batsman (Afridi) was back to pavillion quite early. Again, Youhana did the same. And, Pak was under pressure, R. R. cud not reach above 4 till the mid of the game. Hameed was showing his maturity and the role of an opener. If Afridi is given OFF day on wednesday, and if Taufeeq Umar is brought in, WHO WILL BE THE sixth bowler from Pak side? Will Pak concentrate on the sixth bowler or make changes in the opening partners????? More, in the third ODI, Inzy utilized only 5 bowlers and Pak cud stop India in 244 only. So, Skipper, Miandad and others must be thinking about the new opening batsmen or continue the game with the same team. Regarding, EXTRAS of 37 by Pak, and 30 by India, that is somewhat okay, but sill a bit more from Pak. Cuz, most of them are fast bowlers. However, as Imran Khan said NO BALLS shud be reduced in Pak side. As India scored 34 in the first 4 overs, they never let the R. R. fall below 6. The credit goes to the first order batsmen, and Dravid & Kaif maintained it till they reach their goal. As I said earlier before the Ist inning ended, >>Is it true? =============================================== Ist match: Inzy made century, Pak lost. 2nd match: Tendulkar made century, India lost. 3rd match: Hameed cud not make century (98), Pak won. 4th match: Inzy made another century, PAK MAY LOOSE TODAY. ================================================== AND, FINALLY it came true. Now, the series has become more interesting. Everyone is focussing on day after tomorrow's match, and of course, it's a final n deciding match. |

** 5 ODI -- Hi!! again to all the cricket fans in Sajha Cricket Club. Only few mins to go for this D E C I D E R. ** What do u guys think - Will the TOSS winner go for batting? If it is for India, Ganguly will surely be going for Chasing, is not it? they are lucky enuff while chasing the target. Donno what's in Inzy's mind. ** Will Afridi be replaced by Umar?? or Spin Master, Saqlain will join and MALLIK to be given rest day? Saqlain has lotse experience, and knows how to stop the R. R. in the middle overs. ** I think, India will be with the same team with either karthik or Powar. For India the formula of seven batsmen and four bowlers came good at Lahore. Chances are 50-50 as Miandad says. However, India are in better position after their win on last sunday. |

- just a fall of 1 wicket. However, DUSdulkar and Laxman doing pretty well. Akhtar, no extras and 1 maiden -- surprising. |

290-300 hmmm... that's what they should make. Dravid is gone (yahooo!), seems like Laxman is going for century! hmmmm!!! Can't wait for Pakis to bat now! |

- let Laxman hit century...... GOOD for PAK.... =============================================== Ist match: Inzy made century, Pak lost. 2nd match: Tendulkar made century, India lost. 3rd match: Hameed cud not make century (98), Pak won. 4th match: Inzy made another century, PAK lost. 5th match: Laxman if hits 3 digits, same may happen :$:$:$:$:$: ================================================== (above is the analysis done by one of my friends) may be close to 300. |

-it's the time to hit the boundaries and not only with singles.... Kaif shud start by now... Laxman very near to 100. R. R. is not pretty good at this moment if they have to reach near 300... (let's go to part-II) |
