Williams looking pretty good, before he fell lbw to Klusener -- a
very sharp decision by the umpire... not easy to tell that it had pitched
on leg stump, rather than a shade out.
Dravid & Das batted out the last 45 minutes before lunch, going into
lunch at 44/1. Not a morning for the fans of ODIous cricket -- India
going very slowly, perhaps too slowly by a shade -- but conserving
wickets was the absolute key. The afternoon and evening are set
up for the rest of the order....
But with 5 top order batsmen only, we need to stay cautious...
But I'd rather see Tendulkar in at the 45th over than in the morning,
as has happened in 3 of the 4 innings to date.
Methinks Prasad is going to be not too useful here...
