Cricket: Well done India! winning the second cricket test match keeps the series alive and tied 1-1. It was the superb batting performance of VVS Laxman. Truely the World Best Team in Test Cricket. Hoping for the best in the third and final Test Match.ONE DAY INTERNATIONAL: 1st South africa Won, 2nd India Won, 3rd India won Series: India Leads 2-1. well done India!!!
WELL DONE INDIA: SERIES tied 1-1: South Africa made a mess of what should have been a comfortable chase of a below-par total at Wanderers, stumbling in the batting Powerplay and then sinking to a dispiriting defeat in a thrilling finish. In conditions less favourable for batting than what the venue has offered in the past, Graeme Smith had put South Africa on course with a positive innings but his wicket in the 33rd over triggered a collapse that was a product of panic, ill-luck and some needling Indian bowling. Munaf Patel's spell proved decisive as he dislodged Smith and ended the South African innings with two wickets in the 43rd over when the hosts were just a shot away from victory.
