Story World Cup!!!!!!

[karanmadan]

india are about to set foot into new grounds during this world cup..they've got Rahul Dravid as their leader. Can he take this young side all the way?

first match: India vs Canada. Canada won the toss and elected to bat first on a flat track.

INDIA START OFF THE WORLD CUP WITH A BANG!!

 

[karanmadan]

Davison tries to revive Canada from a dismal start on a beauty of a wicket with a fantastic hook for 4.

Davison guides one down watchfully

 

[karanmadan]

Zaheer Khan appeals unsuccessfully

Zahher walks back in disappointment

india continue to dominate

 

[karanmadan]

davison cracks one off the back foot. what a player!!!! wickets tumbling down at the other end but he insists on standing his ground

Davison goes after Zaheer this time and the result EVEN BETTER!!! its 6!!

the top indian bowlers are being toyed with by Davison..another beatuful shot down the ground

 

[jhnnyby000]

This is starting to look good well done on the start to the match
Keep it up mate

 

[karanmadan]

at 14 overs it's drinks and canada are 51/3.
The pick of the bowlers obviously being Zaheer Khan with figures of 7-3-19-3.
Davison has single handedly brought canada back into this, lets see if he can go on or will india strike....kumble to continue...

 

[karanmadan]

Kumble puts Bagai out of his misery. Beautiful googly bowled, inside edge onto the stumps. Canada are now 4 down.

 

[karanmadan]

New man at the crease now. It will be interesting to see how Davison responds to another wicket down as he is clearly the only man that can face this indian attack.

 

[karanmadan]

kumble strikes with another one. what a catch by harbhajan singh. canada now 5 down with 52 on the board.

 

[karanmadan]

the new man Billcliff is off the mark in style

 

[karanmadan]

another one down..harbhajan celebrates his 3rd catch of the match and his first wicket. Billcliff gone and canadian wickets are falling like bowling pins now.

 

[karanmadan]

Davison departs. 65/7

 

[karanmadan]

zaheer cant believe that one was turned down.

zaheer finally gets the umpire to raise his finger.

 

[karanmadan]

good shot from the tailender

 

[karanmadan]

zaheer finishes it up.

Canadian scorecard.

Indian bowling figures. Zaheer Khan destroyed the canadian batting line up like they were a bunch of school kids batting.
