He raised a toast to team-mate Zaheer Khan when he reached his 13th Test century but it was hard not to see VVS Laxman’s unbeaten 200 – a thing of breathtaking beauty – on Thursday against Australia...were tried, and through the day, Australia kept coming up with tactics that made some of us wonder if Ponting was losing his edge as a competitive captain, his mind cluttered by a million things.
He's been using it as a play thing and not with any serious cricket intent. Serious cricket intent? In Twenty20? Even for Aggers - whose fatutuousness knows no bounds - that takes disingenuousness to new heights (depths?) Twenty20 is ALL about the money and nothing to do with cricket.
Former Australian wicket-keeper batsman AdamGilchrist is said to have questioned Sachin Tendulkar's honesty during the controversy featuring Harbhajan Singh and Andrew Symonds in Sydney...hear the exchange but not the words alleged.” If Symonds – and, more importantly, Justice Hansen accepted that Tendulkar was closest to Harbhajan Singh, what is Gilchrist raking up now?
...after his briliant Aussie tour and subsequent Paki tour. Double centuries galore and a triple century. Man - he is an entertainer. And Gautam is a special batsman - a briliant player of sin and also very good against pace- a compelte player. Just need to curb his attacking instincts expecially in the tests where long innings will make or break you. Congratulations to Indian cricket team.
India crush Australia by 320 runs I was busy, and Suchitra called to tell that we had won. I just got time to make this post. Dudes this is historic! Congratulations Team India

INDIA VS AUSTRALIA 2nd TEST, IND vs AUS : Oct 17, 2008-Oct 21, 2008 AUSTRALIA Total: 58/5 in 17.0 overs So what do you all think? Will we take the remaining 5 wickets, or will they bat till tomorrow evening?
cricket, quite possibly the most boring sport on the planet, admittedly only because it can last 5 bloody days! otherwise I think you have to look at golf as being a major contender. however this post is about that in itself is the first thing I don't understand, why exactly does it need to last 5 days? I think it's because nothing actually happens. an average cricket match consists of : a bloke...
When there's cricket on the radio :D Hopefully the aussies will do a little bit better today, after yesterday's top order collapse. Still, it's good to see, correction hear a competetive game, and not just the aussies steamrolling the opponent. In other news, an example of why the internet isn't that great. It's a shocking story, that's probably not going to occur all that often, but who knows...
