India- England Test Series

[sob]

The much awaited test series between India and England has started.

At day one of the first test at Lunch India were 108-0.

Both the Delhi openers raced to a century partnership at a 4.18 per over, with Viru scoring the bulk of the runs at 79.

Post lunch Gambhir has fallen at 45 and India are 134-1.

 

[sob]

Pujara is in one down, while Viru is at 86 off 71 balls, strike rate of 120. This is something only he can do in a test match

We are expecting a big score from Viru today

From Cricinfo

Swann to Sehwag, 1 run, full outside off and Sehwag works it calmly along the ground to long-on...England happy to get him off strike

Self Delete-- Double post

An interesting statistics from Cricinfo

Sehwag has finished with five centuries at a strike rate greater than 100. Three of these have been 200-plus scores. Only Adam Gilchrist (7 times) has done so more often (matches since 1990)."

so today could be his 6th century with strike rate of over 100

 

[sob]

The boss scores a century with a rollicking boundary.

103 off just 90 balls, a 100 plus strike rate.

[Ray]

How is it being fixed?

That will given the answer as to how the series goes!

BW's mind is crooked because he is keeping with the times, In a crooked scene of play, it encourages a crooked way of looking at the issue.

How did we end up with 320 odd on board ? That's 3.5 per over ! We had a 4+ rr

4+ was the effect of Sehwag who finally shut his critics up. After he went, run rate slowed.
The pitch is low and slow and puff of dust came out Kohli got bowled. Doesnt look good for England. India should make sure thy get to 450 and look to bat just once.

 

[sob]

Pujara is at 99, all set for his second century, Yuvi is looking good. As Yusuf said, if we put 450, England will be in big trouble.

 

[sob]

Pujara completes his Century. A slow but patient knock, off 190 balls.

 

[sob]

Stats for the first day of the match speak pretty much for themselves

Sehwag scored 117 off 117, the rest managed 206 off 424.

 

[sob]

Yuvi back in the game with a steady Half Century. He must thank the pitch and the lacklustre bowling for his comeback.

 

[aragorn]

Pujara 204 off 381 with 21 boundries.

India 500+


good going...
