THINGS SEEM TO WORK FOR WINDIES

After the dropped catch, Lara turned to be very strict on the fielders and bowlers.
He had a long chat with Bravo and was explaining the strategy to bowl to Sachin. Everyone were expecting the slow tricks from Bravo. But something different happened.

The first ball was a quick bouncer which made Sachin to bend down not attempting to go at it. Then Lara again went to chat with Bravo. This time it was bit quicker and short pitched too. Even the wicket keeper struggled to pick it up!!!

BRAVO SUPRISED SACHIN!!!

Similarly he was bowling the short quicky bouncer and at the same time he was moving the ball a bit!!!

The thing is that Sachin did not even attempt to touch a single ball. All that he was doing was, just leaving the ball to go to the keeper. May be this is becos of the wickets they are having in their hand..Sachin doesn't want to take any risks. The runs were little hard to come for last few overs!!!

Lot of encouragements for Windies from the home ground...Music all over the ground by Windies fans!!!! Indian fans are also enjoying becos of the Master's stay at the crease!!!!


INDIA : 144/3
 
INDIA IN TROUBLE

Well, the things are likely happening in favour of Windies. Wind is blowing in their direction. Lara's suprise bowling changes is turning out to be a serious problem for India. Lara had already brought W.Hinds for Gayle... Everyone were shocked of Lara's confidence in parttime bowlers.

But it worked for them. W.Hinds brought an important break through. The determined batsman,YuvrajSingh departs. Hinds was the wickettaker. Yuvi was dismissed for 18 runs.

UNLUCKY YUVRAJ

Actually, it wasnt a great delivery from Hinds. He just pitched it outside offstump(for lefthander) and moved little. Yuvi went for it... But unfortunately he got an inside edge and this made the ball to hit the stumps!!! The bails came off.... Yuvraj was disappointed to get dismissed in the bad delivery. He kept nodding his head and went to the pavillion with his head down. He was aware of the reponsibility but failed!!! He now feels he could have done what Sachin did in the last over i.e cud have left the ball to go pass the keeper.

DHONI ARRIVES AT THE CREASE

M.S.Dhoni replaces YuvrajSingh!!! This big man can do anything if he stays for some time!!! But Windies in full form now....So its going to be interesting whether Windies allow this pair to get settled!!! They are more attacking now!!!

Lara's experiment of bowling changes seems to work for Windies!!!

INDIA : 144/4

 
India in trouble but good thing is that Sachin is still there. it will be interesting to see Dhoni and Sachin batting together.
 
LITTLE MASTER PLAYING HIS ROLE.....

Well, the pressure after Yuvraj's dismissal was more on India.Chappell's face turned red!!! Also Windies were excited that they took quick wickets of Viru,Rahul and Yuvi!!!
One side, India are looking for atleast a competive score and on other side, Windies hunting for wickets!!!!

The expectations on both Sachin and Dhoni are growing high!!! Also Lara just continued with his wickettaker Hinds on one side and replaced Bravo with Edwards on other side!!!! W.Hinds really troubled the batsmen with his slow moving deliveries Sachin broke from the cage of being quiet. He started revealing his master blaster role. He decided to have some fireworks!!!!

MASTER BLASTER's BLASTS....

Wavell hinds bolwed to Sachin. The first ball was smashed to a six. Up goes both the hands of Umpire!!!Down goes the head of Hinds and also Lara.Sachin nodded his head in usual style!!! The ball vanished out of the ground. It fell into the nearby building!!! Lara had a quick chat with the bowler.

Hinds came to bowl his second ball... This time Sachin just swept that delivery with a great power and was one bounce four!!!! Hinds returned to back to his position with his nodding head. Lara stood still!!!! No movement at all except bending his head down.

ONE OF THE CLASSIC FOUR...

So Lara is now clueless and thinking to stop Sachin. He has seen Sachin for many years and was aware of his potential. Still Lara is not giving up... He has some determination to break this pair!!!! So Sachin Vs Lara is going to be a interesting competetion. Also Indian fans enjoying the fireworks!!!
 
Just noticed the sticky tape on the images now. The photoshop work is topshelf. I tried photoshop the other day at school in digital imaging. It was so hard. You make it look easy. Presentation is excellent. Great work surrendar! :cheers
 
SACHIN REACHED FIFTY....

This is a good improvement on the team's position by the Little Master. Sachin is going over the bolwers on one end and Dhoni becoming a silent partner at the other end.

Sachin on Hinds once again provided the entertainment for the audience. Inspite of being smashed for a six and a four in previous over... Lara continued Hinds to bowl... This time the treatment was the same..... Sachin once agin hitting a big six and a four!!!!

And he brought his fifty with that four!!!! Sachin reached 50 in just 68 balls!!! This is the real frustration for the bolwers. Lara can only watch Sachin going over all around the ground.

Lara as usual did a bowling change and brought Powell in!!!! Sachin's blasts against Hinds made Lara to do this change!!!! Dhoni is playing patient with 3 runs for his name!!!!

SCORE : 181/4

 
Nice 50 for Sachin. Needs to keep batting. This partnership could determine the outcome of their first innings.

TEA BREAK--- TENDULKAR IN COMMANDING POSITION!!!!
tea9cq.jpg

India's position is looking good because of the fireworks of Sachin!!!! Tendulkar continued the same way even after his half century!!!! Dhoni is playing a great support role. Thts what Sachin wanted i.e he wants someone to be stable at other end.

Once again Lara tested Sachin with W.Hinds. He brougt Hinds once again to bowl. Sachin's Treatment remained the same... As soon as he was brought in... Sachin got excited and went for two fours in the first two balls. Then atlast Lara brought Lawson just before Tea time to bowl the last over. Even Gayle was brought in the middle. So Lara's experiment with the bowling changes is still continuing.

At the moment Sachin looking very comfortable in 71 and Dhoni is contented with the supporting role of 7. Dhoni just had only one boundary for his name. But the great thing is his support to the master.

India looking good at Tea. Really a rescue act from the little master. Thanx to Hinds for providing entertainment to the spectators;) Lara just gave a warm handshake before leaving the field.

Its going to be interesting how Lara is going to Sachin's fireworks...


INDIA : 198/4
 
GAVASKAR SPEAKS....
sunil4zj.jpg


During Tea Time, Indian legend Sunil Gavaskar spoke to us. RaviShastri interviewed him. Before the interview, Sunil praised Sachin while going to dressing room....

sunil23co.jpg

R.S : Sunil, hope u enjoyed the match!!! Who gains upper hand now????
S.G : Well Ravi, this has been a fantastic match so for... I think the game is still on for both the teams. As long as the current patnership is on, India luks to be in good position. But Windies have the capability of breaking the patnerships.

R.S : Sunil, " Windies are capable of breaking partnership..." thts true... Indians lost three crucial wickets this session... all were trying to settle but Windies got them in right time... What do u think of Lara's frequent bowling changes??

S.G : oh...I liked his captacincy so for... He is never allowing the batsman to settle down... Frequently changing the bowling means the batsmen has to face different line and lengths frequently and adjust themselves... This context switching is bit difficult for batsmen!!!

R.S : But Sachin outsmarted Lara...isnt it???

S.G : He played well.. But he was finding difficult against Lawson, Edwards and Bravo... But he is in fine form now... This is becos of Hinds... He really Smashed Hinds all over... I guess Hinds wont forget this....


R.S : Speaking about Hinds, Lara is so confident on the parttime bolwers.. what do u think ???


S.G : The part time bolwers are always handy ... we have got Sehwag... So they really help sometimes in breaking crucial partnership... Thts what happened today... Gayle broke the crucial partnership between Sehwag and Dravid. If u see this match, the parttimers have got three wicktes of four so for... So a good move by Lara!!!


R.S : One final question... Where is this match heading towards????


S.G : Its too early to tell this... As i told early, the game is still on for both the teams.


R.S : Thanx sunil.... So the match will proceed shortly... The contest between Sachin And Lara going very interesting so for....The winner of this contest will be known at the end of the day's play... Thrilling entertainment to continue... We will be back for more detailed analysis on FOURTH UMPIRE after the day's play.... Till then enjoy the match... Gud bye.

S.G : Bye.
