Cricket : India vs SA - 2008

[mercurial]

Look at the contrasting stats for the current batsmen:

[B]Batsmen    Runs  B     4s  6s  SR  [/B]   
*V Sehwag  110  133    16  1   [color="Red"][B]82.70[/B]  [/color]
W Jaffer   60   143     5  1   [color="Red"][B]41.95[/B] [/color]

Just get Sehwag out the run rate will slow down dramatically.

Well thats how test matches work, its called handing over the strike...

 

[chiskop]

52.6 Harris to Jaffer, OUT, caught! finally South Africa have the breakthrough! Harris tosses one up outside off stump, Jaffer leans forward and plays a loose drive, the ball takes the outside edge and goes straight to Kallis at first slip who remains alert to take a straightforward catch

W Jaffer c Kallis b Harris 73 (166b 6x4 1x6) SR: 43.97

 

[mercurial]

URG Finally!

 

[chiskop]

Yeah, just a pity it was Jaffer and not Sehwag. But at least we've made a start.

 

[Ou grote]

Excuse me for my ignorance. What is the benefit of declaring when u can bat until u get 800 plus runs?

The way Sehwag's going, India will probably get there.

Sehwag reaches out for it and drives powerfully through cover to reach 150, his last ten hundreds have all been scores of above 150, that's an unmatched record

Well, he's also got bail problems in India.

Forgot about that.

Sehwag on 191

 

[chiskop]

Am I the only one that thinks this game is heading for a draw?

Yep, this is gonna be a draw.

 

[chiskop]

Sehwag's just hit another six and a four off the next ball India 303/1.

cricinfo:
Sehwag's on strike, buckle up. It's his fourth double hundred in Tests. This is the third fastest double hundred in Test history, only behind Nathan Astle's 153-ball innings in Christchurch and Sehwag's own 182-ball innings in Lahore in 2006.

 

[Ou grote]

If India get a lead of 100 runs or so, then either a draw, or Indian victory.
We get them out for under 450, we have a chance...

Pretty impressive:

URG This is just sad. We need 4 wickets in the next session or it's overs.

 

[chiskop]

15 runs to Sehwag in the four balls he faced in the Ntini over just before tea.

 

[mercurial]

Ntini needs to go. He is past his best.

 

[Ou grote]

Doesn't appear to be any reverse swing with the old ball. and new ball is coming up again.
Sehwag's batting like a revolving door, so probably wouldn't matter...

 

[Ecco]

Sehwag just got 250.

Either a draw or a victory for the indians.

 

[mercurial]

Sehwag just got 250.

WTF. Geeziz crysis.
