Good Morning and Welcome to Sabina Park, Jamaica
Well, this is the "Big Match" as they call it, the series is level
at 1-1 and both the teams have everything to play for
So far in the series it has been the batsmen who have dominated the
game, Shivnarine Chanderpaul (445), Carl Hooper (556), VVS Laxman
(386), Rahul Dravid (369) have been in top form throughout the
series
The bowlers have had a tough tour so far, Mervyn Dillon (17
wickets), Cameron Cuffy (13 wickets), Adam Sanford (11 wickets)
and Zaheer Khan (10 wickets) have been the most successful of the
lot so far
The news is that the pitch has lot of live grass on it, and with
Brian Charles Lara and Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar due for big scores
this will be a thriller
The news from the middle is that Ganguly has won the toss and
elected to field
Indians have made one change, Harbhajan Singh replaces the injured
Anil Kumble and the West Indians go in with the same team
Srinath will start the bowling attack, coming over the wicket to
Chris Gayle

the cover fielder

Match State: Stumps - Day 1
Good Morning and welcome to Sabina Park, Jamaica for the live
coverage of the second days play
We saw some superb batting display yesterday from Gayle, Hinds and
Sarwarn
Hinds went on to make it count and scored a superb century when the
other two batsmen missed out on hundreds
The Indian bowling was nothing more than ordinary, with the seamers
not in control, it is ironic that Harbhajan Singh was the only
bowler who seemed to trouble the batsmen in this pitch which the
gurus called "a fast bowlers heaven"
Hooper and Chanderpaul are together again!
Will they carry on to make huge scores as usual or will the Indian
bowlers come back and make it a day to remember?
We have an early start today to compensate for the time lost
yesterday due to bad light
The players are in the middle, we are all ready for the start of
day two
