Day 1 of the Duleep Trophy. And seems like we've got some real bowler-friendly wickets here - an increasing trend in Indian domestic cricket - not an entirely unwelcome one so long as the wickets are not dubious.
In the South v West game, the spinners did the job for the West with Ramesh Powar once again putting his hand up for selection after Zaheer and Munaf gave the early blows. But Balaji struck back for South with 2 very early wickets.
In the *big* game meanwhile, North were bundled out for 177 - Ranadeb Bose taking 4 and Paul 3. But most importantly Sourav Ganguly has taken 2 and is batting 19 not out. So far so good for the man. Tomorrow is going to be huge. As I guess pretty much every game from now on for him until he rediscovers his touch.

I hope Sourav Ganguly does recover his form in time for the series Vs. England. His duals with Flintoff should be interesting! In my view Mr Flintoff should have waited until he retired before publishing his autobiography.
