how is this for a flat track in the current test Pakistan V India

Pakistan batted first and got 679 for 7 dec with 4 centuries
Younis Khan run out for 199, Yousuf 173
Afridi 103 off 80 balls and Akmal 102 not out off 81 balls

in reply India have reached 314 without loss
Sehwag has just reached 200 off 182 balls, the second fastest double century
in test cricket (Astle scored one off 153 balls)
Dravid is not out 90

yeah what a joke... another way to boost batting averages...
but could india declare 100 behind and try for a result

The most surprising stat for Sehwag's innings is that he has only hit one six.

another thought ...could lara's world record be under threat !!!

by **Dogmatic** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 8:54 pm

A long standing record is under threat;
Test Match Cricket - Best Partnerships
413 for 1st V Mankad (231)/ Pankaj Roy (173) I v NZ Madras 1955-56

by **godoubleblues** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 9:33 pm

Sehwag 231
Dravid 127

Players are off with bad light - no surprise.

0/403

by **Dogmatic** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 10:14 pm

Scoreboard doesn't indicate the batsmen are struggling to see the ball due to the light.

yeah i dont think u should be allowed to take bad light at 0 for 400

what a boring match

by **Dog_ger** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 7:30 am

0 for 400...? First time I have noticed that kind of a score..? :shock:

Light rain all day. Record might remain in the rack.

they went on but bad light stopped play again
Sehwag out for 254 at 410 so record still stands

Henry Lawson's comment on Sewag's lack of concentration late in the match was hella funny on ABC. This is my 500th post. Alas, it is carp just like the other 499!!

1/410 Sehwag out 254 off 247 balls.

Saw the replay today of the dismissal, Sehwag would be pretty disappointed snicking a bouncer over his head to the keeper.
