WI' date='5[/quote'] Yup, this was a very testing wicket for both teams but Haynes, Lara and Hopper in the WI team, they won it easily. It was after the good contributions from top WI batsmen, Pak bowler, Wasim and Waqar, in tandem took 5 consecutive wickets and all LBWs. Remember it was dicky bird who was umpiring in the match who will not give LBW out unless he is dead sure about it. There was another record that was broker with 17 LBW wickets were claimed in this game because of the low bounce in the pitch. Well done Zone.

batsman is Kallis?
It was not Kalis, Kabira. It was Rahul dravid, who played 230+ deliveries for his 120+ runs while Sehwag played run a ball innings with team average over 5.5.

When Xavier Doherty, an Australian, was playing his Test debut in the opening match of an Ashes series, I was afraid that he may contribute in equaling this previous record of English team against South African which was established in 2005. English were catching up slowly to equal the same record against Austrailians since 1965 but in 2005 SA took the lead one more time. Can you name what the record was or is?? 11 Mils for this guys...

You are just around. very close. Aus equalled that record back 97. But could not break it. SA took over in 2005. Besides, Eng and Aus have played so many games between them so they will always have most # of debutant playing against each other.

That is correct. It was Pakistan with Shoab, Rana, Afridi, and so on. Afridi was the second best eco with 5.0 bowling 10 overs. The average upto first 50 overs was at 5 scoreboard reading 250/0 and this innings started on the 2nd day of the match and lasted upto 5th day. Dravid has this distinct record of taking 4 days to score his 100. When he was on 92 he hit 3 consecutive 4s. Sehwag on the other end was playing run a ball innings of 290+. They scored 410 runs and for the opening and missed the opening record 413 just by 3 runs. Throughout Sehwag maintain run rate of 5 and then raised it beyond 5.5 between 50 to 77th over. B->Sehwag is going to create some fascinating memories for indian cricket. Mind you Pak had scored 600+ runs with 4 guys making centuries.
It was this game in which RP debuted and was given the MoM award for managing to take 4 wickets...sarcasm by commentators. The Favorite Commentary Line thread refers to this one. The first 7 days of that series were on Mumbai-Pune expressways...the commentators were going on and ond on and on and on about how dead the pitch was. Then, Mikey Olding, in his lovely Jamaican accent, observed when RP bowled a waist high full toss, "he has taken the pitch out of the equashunn!" :--D

Trivia 90.6 Anderson to Harris, OUT, 84.6 mph, gone! King pair for Harris! Anderson aimed the inswinger at a full length, Harris left alone and it crashed into the front pad bang in front. Harris reviewed but it only confirms the worst. Harris becomes only the second Australian ever to bag a king pair. Harris is the 2nd Australian to bag a King Pair. Who is the 1st and which game? No googling and real quick.
