Too many unlucky dismissals or careless shots!?

146-1 and now 163-4!!! Two flicks down legside taken, and one cut-shot too close to the body crashing into stumps! What a great advantage winning Toss and batting on a good pitch, now what? Too many unlucky dismissals or careless shots!? We needed 450 total atleast on this pitch! : but looks like much, much less!

hota hai. dravid's first edge (inside or outside) gets onto the stumps. he looked SO SO good. best he's looked in a year, I would say. very good footwork, straight bat. i thought he looked good for a 100. laxy looked good too. sehwag is sehwag. gambhir is an idiot.

hota hai. .

True, but I'm just concerned - would we atleast get to 400? Its imperative to get there.

[vroomfondel]

i am so pissed at gambhir though.

mixture of both..Gauti need a kick up his back side for playing such an atrocious shot.

VVS too played the shot a little too lazily...playing away from the body (on leg side) and bringing the bat down slow - that caused the nick.

I'd say unlucky, when the ball is down the leg, you'd think a little touch and you'll have a 4 Australia should consider themselves lucky to have 4 wickets

Same old Indian tradition of gifting wickets away to make the match more interesting that it is!!
