Smith Gone!!!

Ravi: Pathan strikes!!!
Sanjay: Yes Ravi. Pathan once again in this tournament gave India an important early break through. The next man is Kallis.

Kumble should've been playing in the India team,to utilize the dusty conditions.
 
Good start by India here... The opening bowlers just need to bowl discipline line and length leave the rest to the spin attack of INDIA.

BTW I am really loving my WC 2003 TV patch being used in story threads. Thanx to all of you mate.

Cheers....

But Kumble isn't playing,so its only H.Singh.
Well I always consider Sachin and Sehwag as best part time spin attack for India. On their day, they can turn the match alone on their bowling itself.
Yuvraj can also roll his arms here as the pitch is dusty.

In that case India can never be short of spin attack.
 
Kallis fired hurricane 50​




Kallis hit a massive six off Pathan


Poor bowl by Pathan and it has been treated the way it should be


Even Harbhajan got smashed for six

good inngs by kallis. thats a very fast 50 for him. hopefully south africa can score a big total
 
Kallis and Gibbs blitz South Africa to 299

Bulletin:

After winning the toss South African captain G. Smith elected to bat on a dusty pitch for some reasons at Chennai in the 2nd match of Coca Cola Tri-Series. South Africa lost their first wicket of G. Smith in the 3rd over. G. Smith tried to cut the ball off Pathan but it edged to the 1st slip in Sachin?s hand. After that, Kallis walked in with some responsibilities for his team and started with a boundary. He starts to trash the Indian bowlers and played some cracking shots all around the park especially against Pathan. Dippenaar supported Kallis beautifully for his 100 and 40 for himself. In one stage it was looking like South Africa was going to get 365-80, but some tight overs form Sachin and Balaji put pressure on South Africa. The scoring rate was dropped and some wickets were also fall. In the end it was Gibbs the man to score quick runs and helped South Africa to reach 299. So now India will have to chase 300 off 50 overs at run rate of 6 per over to win.

Score update for the Indian inning

India 46-2 after 10 overs.

Sehwag and Tendulkar both back in the stands.
 
Another update after 15 overs into the Indian Inning.

India are 81/3. Rahul Dravid also gets out and Yuvraj is the new man on the crease
 
Excellent score by south africa there, but india will not be intimidated by this score
