So I watched as only part of the match... and some thoughts:
1. Veeru and GG need to sort out their Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani ... one gets out and the other follows suit. WTH is that???
2. Sachin was so embarrassed by all the attention of the past few days, and the gentleman he is, he decided to play a false shot and get out. There, that should shut up people now!
3. RD, the only human being to have actually stayed up late for the past 3 nights and read all those SRT love songs-yup each single one of them- was so offended that he decided to take matters in his hands and score at more than 60% SR. Yup that explains everything.
4. I had sent a telepathic message to Yuvi that he is allowed to wear a swagger (and Test Whites) only if he can concentrate and score. I think he heard he, until RD forgot to give Yuvi his inter-over papa bear speech.
*sigh*
5. Do we need to talk about VVS? Hmm.
OK. Before one could say whoa? what? hain? kab? kahan? Kyun? (all in HYD Hindi, of course)... he was gone.
6. There was a shot of Zak when India were at 34-4 or something. Here is what he was thinking:
First these morons replace me with Nehra in the ODIs... and the other moron bowlers had no clue.. now these idiots give me this paltry score to bowl at... just because my last name is Khan they think I'll take a 5-fer each time I enter the field... I probably would if they don't keep dropping bloody catches!
And then he closed those intense dark kohl-lined eyes, and contact was lost.
7. When Dhoni walked in an hit a shovel down leg-side for 4... I knew the world was in safe hands and logged out.
p.s. I'll go and check the score now.
2nd Test.
