This is regarding omission of Ashwin and may be something which we would be seeing as the match progresses.
Something like this....
Pakistan wants trust between the two nations.
PMO wants to show the faith in the talks between the two nashuns.
PMO asks what to do to show faith?
Pakistan asks drop Ashwin.
PMO acknowledges by asking the TI to drop him.
.......

Ahem ahem ahem. It is India that needs trust from Pakistan. Not the other way around. But you prove my observation - Pakistan and Indian National Congress ability to come back or hit six from a back-foot and appear good doing so.

Gul to Tendulkar, no run, hint of reverse? Maybe. Moves in off the seam. Tendulkar was trying to steer that to third man, a thick bottom edge, rolls near his feet @ 142.36 kmph

All batsman are struggling on this pitch to find any sort of timing, so even with a fast outfield and our generous bowelrs, a score north of 270 some should be competitive.

India have just scored 5 runs from over 30-33, India desperately need a few boundaries, Pakis are enjoying themselves, they are stating that it is impossible for them to lose.

Dipanker · Post by **Dipanker** » 30 Mar 2011 16:22

Scoring runs proving tough on this pitch, we need at least 275+

Hafeez to Tendulkar, 1 run, Dropped by Umar now, it can't get any worse for Pakistan, another dolly, Afridi is close to tearing his hair out, Tendulkar clipped it after coming down the wicket, Umar at mid wicket, palmed it over the bar, both the brothers have now let-off Tendulkar

Altair · Post by **Altair** » 30 Mar 2011 16:40

its really difficult to bat there. the ball is not really coming on to the bat. 300 could be a winning score but 275 is competetive..JMT

I too left watching. That Dhoni will just keep eating balls and will get out on 20-30, whats the point?

SwamyG · Post by **SwamyG** » 30 Mar 2011 16:43

We need to bat 50 overs. Does TI get that or not? Right now I will be happy if we reach 215 :-(((

Dipanker · Post by **Dipanker** » 30 Mar 2011 16:43

How many runs should be good on this pitch? What are the commentators saying?

rsingh · Post by **rsingh** » 30 Mar 2011 16:44

en plus we have opted for Nehra............one more bad day

Is it possible that we take him out (food poisoning during lunch) and bring the worthy one?
