Ouchy. This is too painful to watch. I thought Ganguly was sick? ---

Damn! I would understand more Spanish than the English in that thread! All in all, I think the first innings could have ended a bit worse. As it is, 330 is chase-able score, going by what we saw in Karachi. We should be fine so long as we don’t lose wickets early on. Dravid looked, to me, to be getting a little tired today - I hope it was only my imagination Obviously **aankh** didn’t spend enough time in the toilet during the first half! ---

Quick! Does anyone know a free audio feed for the matches? ---

Looks like we’ve lost this one. Oh well 😉 Does anyone know when Harbhajan Singh is supposed to return, if he is to return at all? And why is he out? ---

Someone didn’t spend enough time outside the TV room either!! Seriously though, Pakistan was the better side today, right from the word go. Batted well, bowled well and fielded much better. As much as I’d have like to see a 2-0 score, this deserved result makes it more exciting! There is much to look forward to… ---

> [@gouda](#): > > Someone didn’t spend enough time outside the TV room either!! Stop persecuting me! I can’t win everything! But it was a beautiful game. That last minute effort by Balaji and Powar was excellent. ---

I bet you came out to watch just when Powar and Balaji were smashing everything to the ropes.
