India go down !!

Another toothless display of batting by India and a comprehensive loss to Pakistan, yet again the idea that we can’t win a match at Karachi comes to the fore.  Was walking into our Office Cafeteria, Dravid’s interview and he says the new ball did the trick … well hello ~ this is International Cricket, were you walking in thinking that the Pakistanis would come with an old ball to let you get the runs !!

In the previous matches, we piled on the runs when it dint even matter, but today the Indians were expected to do much more than fold up like this.  Chasing a huge total is difficult agreed, but give it a try, a fight … that’s all that is expected.  

And the Pakistanis could do much better than preparing pitches that were so dull and dry that a three match series was made into a one match series.  They should have been a wee bit more competitive.  Blaming the weather for the flat pitches is bullshit and was more an act in defense than anything else.  

The scene now shifts to the One dayers, hoping that the Indian batsmen click there and pile on the runs !!

Cheers
