Finally ... a day of good competitive enthralling cricket in the India South Africa Series.
At the end of the day, both teams should be reasonably satisfied with their efforts. Pathan and Zaheer were the big plus points for India; Pathan in particular - bowling with superb swing, a forgotten art these days. Kallis underlined his quality with a well-deserved century - how South Africa struggle with their batting with a man of such abundant class in its centre is a mystery to me - (although, to be honest, India have 4-5 quality batsmen and still struggle ever so often) - and Ganguly put up a much improved performance as skipper. As for Kumble he will have to wait a bit longer for his moment of glory.
Elsewhere, in a meaningless but closer than expected contest, England beat Zimbabwe by 5 wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the series.
And the Aussie juggernaut rolls on as they take complete control of the Test Match against New Zealand at Adelaide
