Hate BCCI c***s for absence of DRS. We would have scored 500+ if not for that horriblr horriblr decision.
Its suits BCCI...unfortunately Indian fans have to suffer..

Massive massive respect to Murali Vijay. Been a long time since I have seen an Indian batsman showing this much patience and determination outside SC. Deserves a long run in our test team.:hatsoff::hatsoff:

An opener doing like this was Gautam Gambhir a LOOOOONG time ago in Napier, NZ. He ofcourse played several sessions out. That was a champion knock of patience and determination. Technique too MV has done reasonably well, patience + Technique too. Expected same from ChePu, he lost focus after doing well. Sunil Gavaskar used to display this patience, but not many after him had the technique and patience. Second best opener was Sehwag but he is a maniac-hand-eye, and patience :hehe:

He displayed total patience, however there is also a need to push the scoring as well. He needs to at a minimum go at 40 SR.

Umm let us see... 1, He wont make any good scores against quality opp - he did 2, He wont come good overseas - he did 3, he wont make big scores - he did 4, He got a chennai pitch at Trentbridge - no other Indian bat scored a 100 still 5, He can not score in swinging conditions - he did 6, He scores too slow - First get others to score then we can see. see him get all detractors wrong haterz.

I did not think he had it in him to grind it out.Hopefully I have been proven wrong.

Incredible patience.. and more importantly judgement outside the off stump. It is an art. He has mastered it.

Contrary to what most people thought VJ has become one of our most consistent bats in Test Cricket . Even though that's yet to translate over into Loi's I think he should stay as a test specialist it will prolong his test career. I defiantly think test are his best format. Aside from one drop, he has also more wickets than Binny and only Is one behind Sir:P

Mooli has served me some humble pie off late.....kudos to him......what he may lack in technique he makes up with his patience......happy to be pleasantly wrong....

Great to see Vijay scoring all these runs. This one especially is very crucial since we could have been bowled out early. We still not out of danger so he has some more work to do tomorrow, but he has been terrific with the bat so far. Keep it going Murali.
