@shu- India should win this match from here- Sachin's batted well, aided by some bowling which has left a lot to be desired, with both Wasim and Waqar bowling a line and length that's just inviting to be hit, while Shoaib still hasn't learnt that fearsome pace is pointless unless it's coupled with good line and length. Enjoy the forthcoming Indian victory! Oh, and I never doubted Tendulkar's class, I just believe that for the last 2 and a half years Hayden has been the better batsman of the two...

Maybe, but you can never supress class. He will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes.
Its Sachin's destiny to rule the world, and hearts!!!

And about the win tinkergaloot, never underestimate India.
We have the ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
So it ain't over till the fat lady sings.

Mr. PooPs, I miss you man. I need somebody to help me digest this victory. Whats the mood across the border, eh??
Sachin and Co. dismembered the Pakistan (fearsome?) bowling attack, piece by piece. The Rawalpindi Express lost its steam. And the cramps were the only reason Sachin missed out on century no. 35!!!
Man, I hope this is an indication of the things to come..

Well...first we had Andy Bichel get 7 for 20 off his 10 overs....lookin' good.
Then the Aussies were 4 for 60-odd and it wasn't looking good.
[So I went to bed]
Then along came Bevan, the master of dragging the Aussies screaming to a reluctant victory...

Don't forget Bichel's 34 not out 
Guess who the man of the match was?
PS. Has anyone else noticed that after most of Brad Hogg's balls, Gilchrist says "Bowlin' Georgie"? I wonder what the story behind that is

Bevan deserves some credit for the Aussie win, but mostly it should go to the Endland captain. At 114 for 7 the match should have been over. Instead of pressing home the advantage England sat back and went for a low scoring rate - pathetic. That is not the way to win matches and a head needs to roll... >

Fuzzy, what needs to be destroyed is Nasser's Ego. He has a highly inflated ego that prevents him from thinking clearly. England would have still won if he had not decided, deducing by some wierd, beserk logic, to give the penultimate over to that new guy Anderson (one match winning effort does not qualify him to a podium higher than Caddick or even Flintoff).
His hatred (yeah, hatred is the word for it) for the subcontinental teams will bring about his downfall, if this despicable defeat doesn't get him first.
And Jafo, remember what I said bout Sachin?
Did you see him bat against the Pakistanis? Its soon gonna be your turn, I hope (I still do not fancy India's chances in the S/F), soon. And He (I have to use a capital 'H' in 'He'), if He continues in the present form, will remind you of what Warne fears!!!
Be afraid. Be very, very afraid.

@shu...if you put all your eggs in one basket you can end up in a lot of heartache.
One good ball and Sachin can be out....then what?...
The Aussies can have 4 of them lose the plot and still have Bevan and a bowler save the day.
Don't forget, in this series, 7 for 20 is only the second best wicket taking...and the best is an Aussie as well...

I know Jafo, that's why I still doubt the progress of the Indians to the S/F (Read the post carefully buddy).
What I meant was that the Australian team must be praying, nay, pleading with the Gods that Sachin doesn't strike gold if they meet India again in the World Cup. Cause if he days, theres gonna be 'ell to pay mate.

And do remember, that no score is too much for the Indian batting line-up on its day. If they fall, its like a pack of cards. But if they click, even a score of 300+ isn't beyond their reach. Its all about which team plays the best on that day mate..

Possibly....but it'll be a great match worth watching...and that's what it's all about...
The British Empire might be dead in the water....but it's left a great legacy....a bunch of countries who enjoy the battle of cricket and trying to thrash each other...

It seems like that any time I walk out into the family room to watch the match, a wicket falls. So, my Mum's locked me into my bedroom. Poor me.
But I wouldn't mind it if India wins today!!!
