the first hour is crucial.we have to get some early wickets and bring the buffalo and the hat trick boy early to the crease.
Shame i won't be watching the first session.But i will see you guys at lunch. :)
let the battle commence once again.Good luck to Shoaib and his generals.
Lightning
30th January 2006, 02:43
This session should be a rippaa! Can't wait. India needs a partnership and Pak, obviously wickets. Will be intresting to see how the two lefties handle Asif and Shobby. I reckon a few outswingers and one that straightens from time to time can do the trick (Asif especially). Ofcource Shoaib can always bounce them out!
the true passionist
30th January 2006, 02:45
This session will be crucial on for the final outcome of the test...
India has Ganguly, Yuvraj, Dhoni and Pathan....it will be tough to get them all out without conceding a lead.
so tough session for both teams
mooz
30th January 2006, 02:49
maybe its just me, but I am only concerned about Dhoni. Pakistan usually doesn't bowl well to batsmen who take the attack to them. There are not a lot of runs, and a 15 over Dhoni on-slaught could give India the edge.
Usman Chadda
30th January 2006, 03:24
Its make or break for Ganguly! If there is anytime to bowl to him its now when India are reeling at 74/4. He is practically playing the innings of his life for his country!

ARY is showing that some of the grass was mowed off this morning. WHY?

Anyways what time does match start.
And also why isn't this a sticky yet. :13:
Waseem
30th January 2006, 03:56
Good morning people :)
This is very crucial session for Pakistan, we must remove 2-3 batsmen otherwise they wouldn't find it hard to ovehaul 245.
Gangu's future in TESTS may also be a bit dependant on this match, let's hope we can give him farewell :)
Good luck Pakistan :-)

Big Mac
30th January 2006, 04:07
Shoaib bowled the last over yesterday so he couldn't start this morning. If he wants to bowl from Razzaq's end then he has to wait until razzaq has bowled an over from that end first.
Usman Chadda

20.1 Akhtar to Yuvraj, no run, round the wicket still, good length outside off and coming in, defends and gets an inner edge to the pads

Too early to say - but I think that the pitch has eased out - and Indian batsmen will get a huge lead - one bowler missing for Pakistan - was it necssary to have Danish on a green top ?

Akhtar trying a bit too hard maybe? or is this type of a delivery good to keep the batsmen unnerved?

anyways - Indians were lucky to make use first use of the green top ... curator or whoever was behind this kind of pitch should be flogged - toss should not have such a big impact - unfortunately for Pakistan it has been a huge factor - pitch is definitely looking a lot easier to bat - Shoaib is probably overdoing the short pitched stuff

Shoaib will ONLY fire if a wicket falls (even if Asif takes one), he will go for more and more runs because he is getting frustrated.
Usman Chadda
30th January 2006, 04:45
India to make 400. Pak would lose this for sure
What kind of a fan are you? A match isn't over until the last ball so its stupid to make such immature predictions.

The seamers will get a lot more chance to pick up a wicket in the first hour. Afridi/Kaneria should be on just before lunch or so.
India - 129/4

A test for Dhoni really. This innings will determine how good a player he is...
Razzler bowling well, while Asif is also applying considerable pressure on both the batsmen.
