Typically, I rate Test matches involving India as -
- Good, when India wins
- Better, when Sachin enthralls with a totally awesome inning (or two!)
- Best, when Sachin enthralls and India win
This time, I am slightly adjusting my ratings as -
- Good, if Paul Harris gets thrashed
- Better, if Paul Harris gets thrashed and goes wicketless
- Best, if Paul Harris gets thrashed by Sachin and goes wicketless
Yep. I don’t care if India wins or not. Well, actually I do. But, I am really hoping that the Indians teach Harris a lesson or two.
Gambhir vs. Steyn/Morkel and Sehwag/Sachin vs. Harris, I think are the key matchups for India’s batting. As for the bowling, turning pitch or not, I have no idea how we are going to get twenty South African wickets. Maybe Sreesanth will deliver a miracle?
