Dale's 90's test league. *England dominant in Pakistan*

[Ed Smith]

So after a good start it all went horribly wrong for India... with only the openers and Ganguly putting up any resistance. Ball is turning sideways with Murali and Herath taking full advantage... with a little help from Mr. Shepherd. Can't say I'm looking forward to facing Kumble and Harbhajan though...

Final wicket and scorecard;

 

[Sahil70]

what ground are you using?. and also what settings. those cracks do look menacing

 

[Ed Smith]

Ground is a custom Eden Gardens. The pitch is medium dusty with heavy cracks. It started doing nothing then after about 10 overs was doing bits

 

[Ed Smith]

So. I'm getting tortured... Think I was around 60-5 when I left.

 

[Ed Smith]

72-6 at the close of day 1. Just the 16 wickets falling. I may have over done it on the "spinner friendly" pitch a bit. Only Jayasuriya got past 20 so far...

 

[Ed Smith]

That'll be me all out for 169. Totally wasted opportunity for Sri Lanak to kill the game with a mix of lethal Indian bowling and some poor shot choices meaning it's all to play for in the 2nd innings.

 

[Ed Smith]

So accidentally deleting the save for this is a thing that happened... Doing and emergency restart with Australia going to India imminently...

 

[Ed Smith]

Lost the toss and got put in. Lost captain Taylor early to a belting ball that nipped back. Everyone else has got starts then got out. Made it to lunch only 3 down though...

 

[blockerdave]

I keep losing.. I should probably “lose” the save too

 

[Ed Smith]

I wasn't even getting beat

Was going to start a 1999 WC super 8 type thing. But apparently I had too many save files. Deleted the wrong competition file

 

[Ed Smith]

And it was almost going well. Gilly and Slater had a decent partnership going. Then this...

 

[Willoughby63]

Is Michael Slater commentating on himself by any chance?

 

[Ed Smith]

Is Michael Slater commentating on himself by any chance?

Aye it's a bit parallel universe like

 

[Ed Smith]

Set him up perfectly

 

[Ed Smith]

Bowled India out for 141 after posting 266 myself. Pitch seems to have totally died on Day 3. Currently sat 121-1 with Waugh 58* and Blewett 44*. Based on how flat and slow it is now, I'll need a 400-500 lead to be safe...
