INDIA WIN IN GRAND STYLE ! SACHIN SMASHES A STUNNING 100!
Harsha : Welcome back to Star sports and I think some of you might be pinching yourselves to check whether what you just saw was real . Sachin Tendulkar has steered India to an outstanding victory . It was as if the little man was out there to show the world that he was the real boss when it came to batting . I hope it will silence his critics once for all. Your comments Geoff !
Geoffery : Superb ! FAbulous . I though my mum was bowling. The way he was batting , he could have hit it with a stump ! The English bowling was made to look ordinary . Dravid --- what did he have for lunch . He hit 3 sixes , didn`t he ! What was this Indian team doing all these days ! Superb batting .
Ravi : It was great to see the Indians attack the bowling . Great batting from scchin and I believe this is the way to go for the Indian team and what better place to o it than Lords. Dravid was fantastic as well and Yuvraj`s innings showed that there was nothing wrong with his form . With th batting back in good form , India will be a definite force to reckon with in this natwest pentangular . Mark my words !!
Harsha : Now the presentation party is ready with Paul Allot .
PRESENTATION :
Paul Allot : A fantastic start to the Natwest Pentangular , England in the end wre thoroughly outplayed by a rampaging Sachin Tendulkar . I would first like to call upon Michael Vaughan to have a chat .
Michael, tough luck !
Vaughan : I must congratulate India and Sachin for a superb innings and thoroughly entertaining this crowd at Lords . We thought we had a good total and India chased it down easily because of the great man and he was superbly supported by Dravid and Yuvraj . Our bowlers , I thought were decent . They just had an off day . Hope to get things right at The Oval tomorrow against Pakistan .
Paul Allot : Good luck Michael .
Now I call upon the winning captain R.Dravid . Rahul , a dream start !
Rahul : Yes , I think it was a great team effort . Sachin was outstanding and today`s innings must surely silence his critics .

Paul : Good luck Rahul , for the next game against Pakistan at Birmingham .
Rahul : Thank You Paul !
Paul Allot : Now the man of the match award decided by the Sky Sports Public Poll . It is none other than the `Little Master` SAchin Tendulkar . Sachin , if you can come up an collect your cheque and a magnum of champagne .
Sachin : It was a good wicket to bat on and the bowlers did well to restrict Englan to 282 which I thought was achivable and the start veeru gav us was outstanding . I was timing the ball well right from the first ball and I decided to play an attacking game and it paid off . Looking forward to doing well against Pakistan . We havenot had a good record agaionst them recently an hope to get things right at the right time .
