wow!
They are really punshing that ball!
Afridi hit 3 consecutive sixes at one point.

Actually, it was 4!!! :shock:

[font=COURIER NEW,COURIER,MONOSPACE]End of over 133 (7 runs) Pakistan 578/5
IK Pathan 30-4-118-1 (2nb) - Pavilion End
Shahid Afridi 63* (62b 5x4 3x6) Kamran Akmal 51* (50b 6x4 1x6)

133.1 Harbhajan Singh to Shahid Afridi, SIX, tossed up and on the off,
Afridi comes down the pitch and creams it. That is a massive hit!
Many rows back and into the stands
133.2 Harbhajan Singh to Shahid Afridi, SIX, this one is straight down
the ground but the result is the same! HUGE from Afridi and India
are really struggling here!
133.3 Harbhajan Singh to Shahid Afridi, SIX, Harbhajan comes round the
stumps, Afridi does not care, there are four fielders on the fence
on the leg side but he smashes a six over square-leg anyway!
The umpire is looking at the ball, it's taken quite a battering
here
133.4 Harbhajan Singh to Shahid Afridi, SIX, And another! That is a great
hit over square-leg! Could Afridi go for six sixes?
133.5 Harbhajan Singh to Shahid Afridi, two runs, anoher big shot but
this time it is a mis-hit and Afridi is lucky that the ball falls
short of long-on
133.6 Harbhajan Singh to Shahid Afridi, one run, eased through the off
side for a single that caps off an eminently forgettable 27-run
over for Harbhajan Singh

End of over 134 (27 runs) Pakistan 605/5
Harbhajan Singh 34-5-176-0 - College End
Shahid Afridi 90* (69b 5x4 7x6) Kamran Akmal 51* (50b 6x4 1x6)


The first ball of the next over was hit for 4 too![/font]

Harbhajan Singh, not a bad "victim" to do it to either. He's hardly an average trundler.

lmao at that Indian pace attack.
Shush. They're clearly better than England, as the ICC ratings show.

Remind me again, what have India done to deserve being 2nd on the ICC's extremely credible table? Maybe not winning outside of the subcontinent for 20 odd years is considered a good thing.

For one they have consistently taken the attack to australia, beaten them more than once.
drawn series down under (2004)
beat pakistan in pakistan (2004)
beat South Africa in India (2005, the previous series was lost... the match fixing scandal).
draw with England in England.

India 180 for 0 now.

Sehwag scored the fastest ever ton by an Indian opener. Dravid meanwhile is on 40 from 111 balls. Really slow on such a good wicket. Infact that really is the difference in class between Kallis/Dravid and Ponting/Lara/Sachin...the ability to score consistently at a good rate.
