Aussie Innings:
Sunny: "At home, I am feeling the pressure of the game...I wonder what the players are going through."
Mel: "Aussies turning it around here...Ponting seems determined to prove a point...did India miss a trick by benching Sreesanth today? He would have sledged him out by now!"
@End of over 18 (10 runs) Australia 86/1
Shantu: "Munaf looks more and more like Venkatesh Prasad, bowling 5 slow balls and one slower!" That's being very unfair to Prasad!
@End of over 21 (5 runs) Australia 100/1
Ankit: "Ponting's innings is increasingly resembling the one he played in the 2003 WC final: starting slowly with careful nudges while getting the odd-boundary. I hope he didn't watch that part of the video where he explodes, because otherwise it might be curtains for India. "
Comment from CricInfo: Hmm, he didn't really begin slowly that day.
@End of over 25 (2 runs) Australia 116/2

@End of over 27 (2 runs) Australia 122/2
Sasikaran: "How good it would be if Sachin gets Ponting out now.. Both of them are playing their last world cup & for one it's his last world cup match." The latter may not be true you know.
Grumpy: "that could be the last time sachin bowled in ODIs." Too many hasty conclusions being made!

Indian Innnings:
Talat: "Ponting just personified the phrase "Form is temporary - Class is permanent".... time for sachin to personify "Form is permanent - Class is Permanent"!"
@End of over 2 (11 runs) India 16/0
CricInfo: I wonder if Munaf Patel is watching the speeds on Lee's bowling. I wonder what he makes of it.
Mukunth: "Munaf might as well think that someone replaced the speedometer with an Auto Meter!"
@End of over 3 (4 runs) India 20/0
CricInfo: Amol Palekar is in the stands. No one is upto any golmaal, just yet.
Nitin: "Hope Amol Palekar's boss doesn't catch him seeing the match" Hahaha! By the way, Rajnikanth played Amol's role in the Tamil version of the movie - "Thillu mullu"
Mukunth: "The no. of matches Tait has played is less by 2 compared to Sachin's age. See, who is having a go at whom!"
Mike: "Amol Palekar?? Golmaal?? Please explain?"
Palekar - Bollywood legend. Glmaal - great Bollywood movie. Google for other details.
Kevin: "And there is Pankaj Udhas in the crowd! And Udhas unlike his name is Happy."
Udhas - great singer of ghazals. Google for more info.
Later Sometime by Vijay: "Google for more info". To know more about google, bing it."

@End of over 33 India 168/3
@36.3
Johnson to Yuvraj Singh, no run, there are no fish in the Kankaria lake in Ahmedabad, but Yuvraj is really fishing hard. Another lazy flail at a back of length ball outside off, swish and a miss.
@36.4Johnson to Yuvraj Singh, FOUR, and you wonder why he does that fishing thing, when he can play shots like these.
37.3 Lee to Dhoni, OUT
