Aust 2 for 359, Ponting slaughtered the Indian attack. Eh, this game is already over and India havent batted. 360 has never been sucessfully chased and I dotn think it's happening tonight.

ROFL we lost! I knew it, dunno had a feeling India wouldn't win. You know what's kinda funny? I heard the Indian population was burning Sachin and other player's effigies before the matches as in "if you don't win we're gonna....". I guess they're happy as long as India won vs Pakistan (it's stupid but true).

India paper headline - "Shock and Awe", referring to the australian batting.

It was incredible. I've never seen anything like it. India all out for 230'ish. They realy never stood a chance after the first innings assault.

I guess. My 'cousin' (almost everyone you know is your cousin, Indian-style) was talking to me. He's like "the bowlers were sold out! Anyone that watched could say so! Even I can do better than them!" And it's true, match fixing is very popular in India (+Australia's got a great team, not just to suck up to u :p)
