[Haarithan]

Australia have made a remarkable turnaround in their last 3 matches to top that table. Not long before were they fighting with SL for the 4th spot but an excellent transition over their last 3 matches has lifted them to where they actually belong. And its a juicy Ashes semifinal encounter which makes this competition further exciting.

 

[Varun]

Great stuff, gained some momentum before the big semifinal. Dravid was amazing, another classical innings from him manifesting his prowess, while Raina and Yuvraj made praise-deserving runs to increase our run-rate substantially (in the first innings). Harbhajan's fantastic five-wicket haul and Tendulkar's second innings ton virtually ensured our win.

 

[Bhargav]

Wow. It's a remarkable turn around for us.
Good to see our team right at the top, where it used to be.
Ponting, Clarke and Watson played really well! Our bowlers did a great job too!

And its a juicy Ashes semifinal encounter which makes this competition further exciting.

Looking forward for this.

 

[Iridium]

We really should have won that match against NZ.

India vs South Africa at Kolkata

Unchanged.

Brilliant work on the stats. Really had a lot of decisions to ponder with, finally decided to axe only Matt Prior. Broad is a very lucky boy to remain in the xi.
