Indian batting flopped once again in a crucial match. Lord of indian cricket "Trimurty" - Ganguly, Sachin and Dravid, could not contribute in the final crucial match.
It was pleasant to watch indian openers coming to bat after winning the toss. Yet it was disheartening to see Saurav Dada finding it difficult to play short balls (once again). And after riding on its luck, Dada played a short to slip fielder (seems like doing some catching practice).
After Dada's departure, all eyes were on the talented Gambhir and he fell for superb fielding. Responsibility to stablise Indian scoreboard was on Sachin and Rahul Dravid. But, Umpire Aleem Dar has a surprise for the Indian captain aka The Wall and for the batting Mastero. Rahul Dravid and Sachin both were given out caught behind when the ball didn't touch the bat. It was pity to see the faces of our two heroes and there was hardly anybody can do other than filling pity.
Anyways, there comes the hero of famous chase of 325 in Lords Yuvraj Singh and another hero of last match Robin Uthappa. But soon both of them fell for cheap shots, again doing simple catching practice to England fielders.
Dhoni tried to hold the fort at one end and he was the last one to fell. At the end Indian scorebroad reads 187-10 (47.3 overs).
Waiting for Indian bowlers to fire all cylinders to English batsmen and show them what they deserve or else.....
Oh.. yes there was some drama in the match again.. and that was bound to happen. It seems England players can't live without the controversies in the match.
