oh ok.. i like to see how things unfold.. so even if i start watching at 7 pm i like to start watching from ball 1.. catching match from inbetween makes me feel like watching a movie from the middle & somehow feels incomplete.. thats why now even though i know we're in good position i cant enjoy it as much :(

^ get a PVR (tata sky plus types). you can catch up & FF through boring parts (useful in tests esp.)

worth it. except for when they screw up like today

 

I have AirTel HD Plus which has recording facility. Not worth it really as I can watch highlights anyways as they are repeated countless number of times. Watching entire recorded match when you already know what happened is not that exciting, highlights are sufficient.

yeah.. highlights or watching repeat when you know the outcome is no fun

 

thats why i dont follow the match during day, keep away from cricket conversations, news etc so i can watch the recorded match as though it's live (i do FF some parts though).

major props to Vijay. he blunted the opening bowlers in both innings. really surprsied me with his temperament. yes he didnt convert but that was crucial. i think he's someone who raises his game at int'l level against v gd opposition



& pujara :gunsmilie: just his presence is so reassuring. it's almost a shock when he doesnt make 150 every time



hope we dont play it too safe (an old trait). we should declare at lunch or when we get lead of 430-450 max. no later. remember last series when SRT & GG batted out 5 sessions for draw in last test

We should play normally for an hour , they'll take the new ball..So obviously they'll attack..

so runs will come..

After an hour we should go hard...get a lead b.w 400 to 450 and declare..

I was really impressed with Vijay..

U should see his pitch map..He scored 5 boundaies..All those boundaries were pitched full..

Anything on good length or short and is outside off he let it go..

Good and short on stumps he defended..

 

Pujara is just class..

Another century for Taylor :O :O

3 in a row :thumbsup:

 

n WI are real idiots , even there selectors...

They always claimed Narine is a LOI bowler and good enough to play tests..Shilingford gets banned..

So they give Narine a chance and picks 6 wickets in his 1st inninngs...
