India 0/38 at Tea Day 3
Require 238 more to win

[jackpot jim]

India 1/86 and doing it ever so easy..
Sehwag 50* off 52 balls. Windies bowlers failing to maintain any pressure.
Cant see India collapsing like they did in their 1st dig although would like to see it happen. The 1 wicket Windies have got was a poor lbw decision given in their favour.
Now 1/94, it's like a T20 scoring rate

[Jim05]

Sehwag out. Bowled by Sammy for 55. Poor shot
India 2/95

[Media Park]

Bowled by Darren Sammy. That's about the worst mode of dismissal possible in international cricket.

The shot was poor, no feet movement.

Ist ODI Pakistan v Sri Lanka today

Pakistan have gone for Sarfraz Ahmed as the wicketkeeper in place of Adnan Akmal. Sarfraz's last game for Pakistan was in February 2010 but his domestic batting performances have led to his inclusion. The keeping is another issue, but Pakistan are certainly missing Kamran Akmal the batsman. What will Sarfraz make of this opportunity? Also returning is allrounder Abdul Razzaq whose last match was the World Cup 2011 semi-final against India.

Pakistan: (possible) 1 Imran Farhat 2 Mohammad Hafeez 3 Younis Khan 4 Asad Shafiq/Umar Akmal 5 Misbah-ul-Haq (capt.) 6 Abdul Razzaq 7 Shahid Afridi 8 Sarfraz Ahmed (wk) 9 Umar Gul 10 Saeed Ajmal 11 Junaid Khan

Sri Lanka will be happy to go back to their prolific ODI opening combination of Upul Tharanga and Tillakaratne Dilshan after the indifferent starts during the Tests. Promising wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Chandimal played the first three ODIs against Australia as a specialist batsman before being dropped. He is back in the squad now but will Sangakkara continue to don the keeping gloves?

Sri Lanka: (possible) 1 Upul Tharanga 2 Tillakaratne Dilshan (capt) 3 Kumar Sangakkara (wk) 4 Dinesh Chandimal 5 Mahela Jayawardene 6 Angelo Mathews 7 Thisara Perera / Kosala Kulasekara 8 Jeevan Mendis 9 Suraj Randiv 10 Lasith Malinga 11 Suranga Lakmal / Dilhara Fernando

Dodgy decision that one.
my prediction is thee Windies to be beaten by an innings & 385 runs.
Their batting apart from Chanderpaul is 'B' grade SACA standard.

Not sure why this is in the Minor International Cricket section, after all it is TEST cricket.

I started a thread for a test a couple of weeks ago, got about three replies, so I wasn't going to bother with a new thread...

[Jim05]

Are 0/19 in second dig
