Session update day 5 - Lunch

Virender Sehwag plays cricket.

It’s an interesting thing to watch someone do it, especially in a match when everyone else was playing on lithium.

Luckily for India he has played cricket, because other wise they would be in more trouble than Britney with an Umbrella.

The wicket seems to be almost keeping low, but it’s the extra bounce that seems to have come from no where that is the most interesting thing.

Dravid lost a finger from Lee, Sehwag took one on the shoulder and the Indians spent a lot of time hopping around the wicket.

Then Sachin had a brain fade in his test last innings in Australia. He hit the fall almost straight back to big Mitch and then took off, Sehwag said no as he probably didn’t want to be run out and Mitch threw down the stumps.

At least his last innings was memorable.

There seems to be a lot of run outs when teams are playing for a draw on the last day.

Draw is obvious now. At least normal adealaide tests have ok endings, this is just a wasted test match.

Apparently the curator Les Burdett, a man who has never turned down an interview, said if he keeps moisture in the wicket, the batting side could be 5 wickets down by lunch.

Poor diddums, we wouldn’t want a batting side to actually bat properly now would we.

Sehwags innings should inspire all Indian cricket selectors to hand in their ID and make their way to the nearest exit.
