Sri Lanka is reeling under the onslaught of Sehwag who appears to be playing a longer version of T20! He is still at the crease having scored 248* runs in 204 balls with 34 fours and 7 sixes! India is 389/1... just 4 runs short of Sri lanka's first innings score of 393!! Regards, RightMan
What an Innings from Viru? I wish he will break Lara's record tomorrow and I hope he will play decent innings to reach 400 runs.
It would be ideal for India to score 400+ runs tomorrow and declare and give Sri Lanka a harrowing time to last for 2 full days! Regards, RightMan
I guess India never scored more than 700 runs in a Test match history, so the big opportunity is open for that.
Well India will be looking for taking 300-350 run leads over them so it can ensure us that we not came again for betting since pitch will take start turning from today and we know Harbhajan is on charge in the match!
Bad luck for india this morning. Sehwag failed to make his third triple century in Test cricket. He was 7 runs short but good news is Sachin hits 50 again and looks solid.
Yes and it's easy for Indian batsmen as now we have no pressure on us and we can make run freely as we are leading them now!
Till this time Top 5 indian batsman raised their bat in the ground atleast once for their performance (above 50 runs)
All the top order batsmen contributed handsomely except Yuvraj and lower order forces India to slump from 5/591 to 9/672! It appears that the lower order got a bit carried away seeing Viru's fireworks and tried to imitate his style! India now enjoys the lead of 279 runs with Dhoni hanging on at 52. Regards, RightMan
Well Dhoni hits a century with 7 sixes which help India to take massive leads and now India need to attack tomorrow by taking early wickets in morning.
Yes now India have another chance to win this match as well with an inning. Dhoni tried to damage the pitch as well ... guys have you seen that
I would be more concerned with the state of the field. They may as well be playing on concrete the runs are ticking over at such a rate. Yes it's great to watch but the bowlers must be screaming at watching their bowling averages go down the pan.
An innings win is once again possible if Sehwag was right in his assessment that Day 4 & 5 would see the pitch giving good turn! If that be the case, Bhajji should have a field day today...! Regards, RightMan
Yes if pitch really give good support then Bhaji will be key for us today and who knows we would have results today itself.
