Sach Roars again....

Well the script was perwriten on the end of day-2 itself with the always tursty sachin was going to get his ton no 42. one could see the grid in sachin's eyes who wanted to score a ton in this tour. As soon as he walked in sachin was on the button and he started to score in a brisk phase. he once again raised the bat towards the sky for the 42nd time in test to mark him reaching the magical figure of "100". he was able supported by yuvi and mahi who scored 22 and 47 respectivly. yuvi left a martin delivery just to see his stumps rattled. a misjudgment from him cost his wicket. but not to take anything from the bowler who was able to cut the ball sharply from way out side half stump to half and middle. it was a superb spell from martin.

Obrain on the other end was also bowling his best in this test may be in the whole of the tour. mahi was first caught by ryder but when the 3rd umpire was asked for a referal by the on field umpires it was evident that the ball bounced before it was caught by Ryder. And Ryder was in no possition of having the knowledge if he collected it or not. the guy was air born at that instance. Thank fully its not a match in Australia if so the Ausi would have said "THATS OUT MATE I TOOK IT CLEANLY AND ITS A RIPPER OF A CATCH" but as we know the kiwi's are good sports and took the decision as a positive event.
