Windies Collapsing!
( Bravo Dismissed by Tendulkar )

With huge pressure on Windies, Dravid continued the attacking field rather than defensive. Also he brought Zaheer Khan keeping Tendulkar constant in other end. Tendulkar was bowling his 8th Over and infact its been a continuous spell. Once again Tendulkar striked for India picking the wicket of Bravo. This man is having a great day so far.. A century & already picked 3 wkts in 8 Overs.

Tendulkar, as usual, mixed the deliveries very well. Offbreaks & legbreaks confused the batsmen especially Bravo, who got frustrated for being decieved on many occassions. Tendulkar attempted an quick straight one around offstump line and Bravo tried to go over the top in straight as there was no fielders outside the circle there... But the timing was once again a problem for Windies batsmen.. The timing of the shot was not proper & it was just passing above Dravid's head & Dravid did well to get hold of it! It was an great catch taken from Dravid and Sachin was once again delighted to get his third wicket.

The entire Indian team was once again brought together for celebration and the control of this game is very well in hands of Indian team. Bravo,after making some useful runs, made his way to the dressing room! The disappointments continued in Windies dressing room. The roaring noise from Indian fans are uncontrollable & that too Sachin striking has brought the whole crowd to jump from the seats with huge joy and happiness. Banks replaced Bravo at the crease joining Sarwan.

Well, 32 Overs ended & with this wicket of Bravo, the game is in Dravid's bag! Windies are left with only one specialist batsman, Sarwan.. So its a very very tough task to expect a win from Windies.. While, Indian fans are very eager to see their team into the finals. But still match is not over yet... India need 4 more wickets & Windies need some miracle! :)

End Of 40 Overs
( Sarwan did provide Ressistance but departs )

With only specialist batsman left, i.e Sarwan, Indian skipper really shuffled the bowling to extreme extent. Tendulkar completed his 10 Overs and he recieved standing applauses from crowd when he finished his spell with 3/39. After that Dravid just experimented with his bowlers my mixing Kumble, Zaheer, Powar and Sreesanth.

Both the batsmen, Sarwan & Banks had the main intension of staying at the crease, though Sarwan started freeing his arms after settling in for sometime. He played some excellent shots aiming to get boundaries. But mostly the fielders, though had tough time in chasing, managed to prevent those boundaries. So runs started coming in running.. but the scorecard was kept in acceleration by both these batsmen. These runs did not affect Dravid though!

Sarwan, The Second Victim of Kumble!

Kumble, in one of his deliveries, bowled an normal leg break delivery which Sarwan attempted to put it away in offside by an aggressive shot & the ball went in air straight towards Zaheer Khan standing near the boundary. Khan did not find any difficulties in taking that catch & it resulted in another wicket down for Windies.

Sarwan was looking solid but he too departed which means... No more specialist batsmen left and Windies tail is exposed now. Dravid and his team continued to celebrate. There was no reaction from Windies dressing room. The excitement increased further among Indian fans.

Meanhwile, Sarwan walked back to the dressing room and Bradshaw replaced Sarwan at the crease joining Banks.

Well just 10 Overs left and India is safely placed on the victory track. The fireworks have already started in Chennai.. This cracker noise gets added to roaring sound of fans making the overall atmosphere great... Windies can only expect to bat for some more time as much as they can, as the target went out of reach with 3 wickets just left! While Dravid wud be experimenting happily with his bowlers & wud be looking to bring the victory soon :)
