00:00:00Back in the side for India instead of Prabhaka, and left arm spinner Raju taking over from Ancola.
00:00:05Zimbabwe, well they resisted the temptation for change and played the same 11 that lost to Australia.
00:00:11At the toss, there was success for Zimbabwe. They won it and decided to field, and here's what happened.
00:00:21A little bit of a haze over the ground at the moment. It's going to be quite warm later on.
00:00:26And Leto Graham is getting a shot for the folks at home. Not much bounce in that first delivery.
00:00:35Well, Kanpur is always known for not having much bounce at all. It's a dead track, it's a good batting wicket.
00:00:40All you've got to do is get your feet out, up to the ball and play.
00:00:44On that occasion, I've been following the Zimbabwe team almost everywhere,
00:00:50and at the beginning we always find that they haven't had settled down to a good line in length.
00:00:57We find so many rides and no balls being bowled by them.
00:01:00And I hope they're going to do better here now.
00:01:08Bit of movement away there. That'll encourage Keith Strick.
00:01:12And Ravi Shastri suggested that if there's going to be any movement, it will be early.
00:01:23It's a big rock for now.
00:01:36It's two for nought.
00:01:36It's two for nought.
00:01:45Immediately.
00:01:50Sachin is such an exciting player.
00:01:53Goes and plays his shots, a great improviser.
00:01:55Definitely needs a good partner at the other end to carry along, play with him.
00:02:00Rotate the strike, which is most important.
00:02:02You're playing one-day cricket, keep the scoreboard ticking.
00:02:04I think that's an easy meet for Sedu on the next time.
00:02:09Keith Strick continues to Sachin Tendulkar.
00:02:11Brandis, who has missed the last couple of games due to an injury.
00:02:35It's been a stalwart for Zimbabwe.
00:02:37Played an important part in their major victory over England in the last World Cup.
00:02:45Oh, and he's got him.
00:02:47Keith Strick now levels Ed O'Brandis.
00:02:49And what a scalp to take you to the top of the wicket-takers list for Zimbabwe.
00:02:56Well, he played half-cock.
00:02:58He was a no-man's land.
00:02:59He just played from the crease.
00:03:01And it was always good the way he was trying to play earlier was to go forward.
00:03:04But then his cock there at the stump trying to play across the line,
00:03:08which is not the right thing to do on a can't-pull wicket,
00:03:11where the ball doesn't come up and onto the bat so fast.
00:03:14And to follow that wicket, India 5-for-1.
00:03:16Sanjay Mandraker has been promoted to the number three spot,
00:03:23so a couple of changes in the Indian batting line-up.
00:03:28Mandraker with a good record there.
00:03:3135 his average.
00:03:34Played very well against Australia in Mumbai.
00:03:36Looked for a while as though he might help Tendulkar take India to victory.
00:03:46Got 62 in Mumbai.
00:03:50Heath Strick now has gone level with Ed O'Brandis
00:03:53as the leading wicket-taker for Zimbabwe.
00:03:56And what a scalp to pick up.
00:03:59Well, Tendulkar playing across the line here.
00:04:02Not going right on top of the ball.
00:04:04And there it goes.
00:04:05It's castled by Shreeq.
00:04:07A good ball.
00:04:17Beautiful time.
00:04:20First boundary of the day.
00:04:23A lot of width on that delivery.
00:04:27Well, pitching on the off stump and still moving away.
00:04:31Very nicely played by Sidhu.
00:04:35Watching the ball to the very end.
00:04:39Placing a fast point.
00:04:40That points the gap.
00:04:55So, the second boundary for India.
00:04:57A very positive-looking stroke from Navjot Singh Sidhu.
00:05:02The ball well pitched up to Charlie Locke.
00:05:08Going right on top of the ball.
00:05:09Just getting his feet across.
00:05:13Look at the floor of the bat.
00:05:14Played so beautifully between the gap.
00:05:15And the ball called by Umpire Buckner.
00:05:26And that's going to run away for four.
00:05:29Inside edge, onto the pad.
00:05:31One has to be very careful bowling to a line here because can't do wicket.
00:05:39As it supports the bats on a lot.
00:05:41And if you drift down the leg side, that is the kind of treatment that you're going to get.
00:05:44But it's stumped and Sidhu, very watchful, glides it to finally.
00:05:51Tendulkar out for three.
00:05:53Sidhu, promoted to the opening position, is on 17.
00:05:55Mandraker on two.
00:05:56This match in Group A being played at Green Park in Kanpur.
00:06:04There are some of the lads who have been on the tour.
00:06:08Enjoying the best of conditions around India.
00:06:17And well taken.
00:06:18There's that mid-wicket position coming into play.
00:06:21That's a very good catch because Mandraker hit the ball extremely hard.
00:06:26That ball well pitched up to him.
00:06:30But then that's a brilliant catch.
00:06:32A reflex catch if we call.
00:06:34Very close to the bat.
00:06:36The ball on the leg stump wanting to play.
00:06:39With the swing and taken marvellously by Campbell by a shot mid-wicket.
00:06:45So follow that wicket in there 25 for two.
00:06:48Muhammad Azruddin, captain of India.
00:06:57And he's got a job to do.
00:06:59Coming in at 25 for two.
00:07:02Good career record.
00:07:04Top score of 108 not out against Sri Lanka.
00:07:09Bombay as it was in 86-87.
00:07:12Bombay as it now is.
00:07:19Azruddin with 31.50s and 300s.
00:07:21Comes in following the dismissal of Sanjay Mandraker.
00:07:24That was well taken by Alistair Campbell.
00:07:33The ball was really flying.
00:07:34The problem is with the low bounce you don't get the elevation.
00:07:38It's not easy to clear those short men either side of the wicket.
00:07:42Right away by Sidhu again.
00:07:49Going through for a quick single.
00:07:53Good throw by the fielder at point.
00:07:55But Sidhu was well home.
00:08:02The Indians now realizing the need to get a move on.
00:08:06They had to take a few risks.
00:08:08And Sidhu has taken a justifiable risk over there.
00:08:11In fact strolling towards the end.
00:08:16They've lost two wickets very early.
00:08:19The prolific Sachin Thendulkar is out.
00:08:21Perhaps a lot of averages catching up with him.
00:08:24And Sanjay Mandraker who's also played well in this tournament so far.
00:08:28Falling cheaply.
00:08:32Nice to play.
00:08:33Bad as it was being for only a single.
00:08:37But the Zimbabwe bowlers bowling well within their limitations.
00:08:41Well that's the trademark Azaruddin flick shot off his pads.
00:08:52In fact Azaruddin plays that shot even to deliver his pitch outside the offstump.
00:08:58Slower delivery from Charlie Locken nicely placed by Navjot Sidhu.
00:09:08Just shows you how fast this outfield is.
00:09:11Goes all the way into the fence for four.
00:09:12For Sidhu opening the face of the bat waiting for it to come on to him.
00:09:23Playing it very very late.
00:09:26And then picking that gap between backward point and cover.
00:09:31That's good batting by Navjot Singh Sidhu.
00:09:33This is a splendid opportunity for Navjot Singh Sidhu.
00:09:42Consolidate his place in the Indian team.
00:09:45He's been in and out of the team.
00:09:46In the air and this could be out.
00:09:52It will be interesting to see.
00:09:55Yes, Steve Buckner has nodded his head.
00:09:57The ball just stopping on the batsman.
00:09:58Azaruddin playing a little bit too early.
00:10:00And what a start for Brian Strang.
00:10:02First ball and a wicket.
00:10:04Well, we've heard Ian Chappell say earlier on that that is a position where there would be a few catches coming in.
00:10:11That short mid-wicket position and Azaruddin playing a little too early.
00:10:14Not quite getting hold of it.
00:10:16Not able to keep it down as well.
00:10:18And a fine catch there at short mid-wicket.
00:10:20So that's a very important wicket for Zimbabwe.
00:10:22The Indian captain gone.
00:10:24India 32 for three.
00:10:25Three for 32 India in dire straits at the moment.
00:10:37And Vinod Kambli comes to the wicket to join Navjot Sidhu.
00:10:44Vinod Kambli has a fine average in one-day cricket.
00:10:46But he'll have to improve on that today.
00:10:48Because India need a big knock from him.
00:10:52At the moment, Zimbabwe.
00:10:55The team is right on top.
00:10:58Well, this was really not pitched up for the drive.
00:11:02But Mahmoud Azaruddin committed onto the front foot.
00:11:04Then finding himself a little bit locked here to open out.
00:11:08And not able to control that.
00:11:13Look at him.
00:11:14Just playing it up in the air.
00:11:16The ball stopping on him somewhat.
00:11:18But he was committed onto the front foot.
00:11:25Nicely played by Sidhu into the gap at mid-wicket.
00:11:30And this should go all the way to the fence because he's really timed that one sweetly.
00:11:34But this is a fast outfield here at Green Park in Kanpur.
00:11:44And now Jodh Singh Sidhu now gaining in confidence.
00:11:47This is not an easy shot to play the flick wide of mid-on.
00:11:51And you need to be informed.
00:11:55You need to be confident of yourself to be able to play that shot.
00:12:05That's beautifully stroked by Kambli.
00:12:06Straight down the ground.
00:12:08And once it beat the bowler, it was four runs all the way.
00:12:10Lovely piece of timing.
00:12:11We know Kambli uses a very, very heavy bat.
00:12:17And he's got several grips on that handle over there.
00:12:22It becomes a very thick handle.
00:12:24And you can see how effective that heavy bat is.
00:12:29Not much of a follow-through over there.
00:12:32Very, very good timing.
00:12:34Over-pitched and that was hit back to Brian Strang.
00:12:49One just gets the impression that it carried all the way.
00:12:55Well, Brian Strang does have a very well-disguised lower one.
00:12:59That's how he got Mahmoud Aziruddin.
00:13:01And he had Vinod Kambli here playing a little too soon.
00:13:12Down the track comes Kambli and plays it beautifully over Midon.
00:13:16To the pitch of the ball and going through with the shot.
00:13:19So a welcome boundary for India.
00:13:2056 for three.
00:13:26We do have plenty of players down the line who can bat.
00:13:31Run rake, three point one, four.
00:13:36Should be looking at two.
00:13:40Let's go run.
00:13:41Replacement once again.
00:14:07Field have got there a little quicker this time.
00:14:09Balls playing, trying to give a lot of air to these deliveries.
00:14:19Should be on the line amongst the wickets.
00:14:22But he's definitely bowled really well throughout this World Cup.
00:14:25That's a good shot.
00:14:40Beautifully placed.
00:14:45It's good to get on to that bad ball.
00:14:48It's really shot.
00:14:49It's really shot.
00:14:52Doesn't have a mid on there.
00:14:54It's really shot.
00:14:55Kambli going on the back foot, watching it till the very end.
00:14:58Playing it beautifully into that vacant area of long gone.
00:15:01A bit of a good fortune there for Kambli.
00:15:12Inside edge, but it's finished up being well placed.
00:15:14Well, it's quantity and not the quality that matters in one-day cricket.
00:15:23As you see, Kambli wanting to drive it on to mid on.
00:15:29Taking side edge.
00:15:30A good ball.
00:15:31That's a very good line that Stranger's bowled all throughout.
00:15:34That's the 50 partnership between Kambli and Sudhu.
00:15:47These two consolidating the position for India.
00:15:51Taking the right balls.
00:15:52Keeping the scoreboard moving.
00:15:55Rons and twos.
00:15:56Not letting the bowler get on top of them.
00:15:57Just over the bowler's head and well placed in the end.
00:16:09Nicely struck.
00:16:09Getting a little bit of room.
00:16:12Ball pitched further away from the batsman.
00:16:17Getting on right on top of that.
00:16:19On the rise.
00:16:20But we can see that didn't go really very high as much as Kambli would have intended.
00:16:24As Ian has been saying earlier that it would be really difficult to hit it on the back.
00:16:27But anyway, it's a good shot.
00:16:30Fetching four runs.
00:16:40Excellent placement again.
00:16:41Really making the fieldsman hustle out there.
00:16:45That's a marvellous piece of fielding.
00:16:47A full toss from Stephen Peel.
00:16:50Both the spinners from Zimbabwe are not really trying to ball quick.
00:16:54But give a bit of air.
00:16:55Pushing the ball through in.
00:16:56Not really quick.
00:16:56There we see a marvellous piece of fielding.
00:16:59A certain four.
00:17:00Cut it to just two.
00:17:00Well hit.
00:17:01Just short of the boundary road.
00:17:05Just short of the boundary road.
00:17:06Just short of the boundary road.
00:17:11Just short of the boundary road.
00:17:20Losing his feet fairly well with Noth Kamli.
00:17:23Getting right on top of the ball.
00:17:25With the swing.
00:17:28Straight over the bowler's head.
00:17:30It's a superb shot.
00:17:31And that is what the crowd wants.
00:17:33And that is what the crowd wants.
00:17:33The boundary has brought up the century for India.
00:17:49And Noth Kamli now nearing his half century.
00:17:52And it's been a quick one too.
00:17:54Strike rate is excellent.
00:17:56And he has hit straight.
00:18:00It's been the picture of his play.
00:18:02When he's hit the ball in the air.
00:18:04He's hit it straight down the ground.
00:18:05That's the safest place on a cricket field.
00:18:09Is to play over the bowler's head.
00:18:11And when you do that.
00:18:14You're always playing with the open bat.
00:18:16Full face of the bat.
00:18:16You're playing straight.
00:18:18The follow through is coming.
00:18:20Perfect.
00:18:20Perfect.
00:18:20Perfect.
00:18:35So it's a race to the half century for the two Indian batsmen.
00:18:57Good for the Indian side that both the players were not in good form at all.
00:19:01Have at least chipped in with their 40s to the side.
00:19:06It's very important that these two carry the Indian innings.
00:19:17Spinners at both ends.
00:19:19Not a very good players.
00:19:20Spin bowling.
00:19:21Use their feet really well.
00:19:24Doing rightly is to get right on top of the ball.
00:19:26Smother the spin.
00:19:27And play straight.
00:19:35That's when you consider that Sid Hu is an opening batsman.
00:19:45He's got very good footwork to the spinners.
00:19:47He's quickly down the track.
00:19:49And looks very confident in playing the spinners.
00:19:53He uses his feet and the best part about him is that he's not scared of playing his shots.
00:19:58Either out along the ground or over the top.
00:20:00One string up from long on.
00:20:24He's got a good feeling.
00:20:29Getting back to Sidhu.
00:20:31He's played more at number three than the opening slot for India in the one-day games.
00:20:37And he's looking for his 50.
00:20:55It's a good feeling once again.
00:20:58It's 108 for three.
00:21:00There's 50 for Vinod Kambli.
00:21:25That's an inning of character by Vinod Kambli.
00:21:27Absolutely marvelous.
00:21:29Coming in a position in India with 32 for three.
00:21:33And a good strike rate as well.
00:21:3550 or 56 balls.
00:21:37Should be looking forward to go for 100.
00:21:41To consolidate the Indian position further.
00:21:43And now, there's double pleasure in this over for the Indian fans.
00:22:01The second half century.
00:22:02Siddhu coming in to open for India after a long time.
00:22:17All the time playing at number three.
00:22:18Didn't play the game due to injury.
00:22:22Has carried his bat through.
00:22:24Both of them shown a lot of character.
00:22:38And consolidate the position for India.
00:22:41Adding 80 runs for the fourth wicket.
00:22:43I would always feel that the captains generally are looking for that 125, 30 mark in 30 overs.
00:22:53The Indian captain might be feeling short about 15 or 20.
00:22:56But then, the early loss of wickets have not really affected the later on situation for India.
00:23:01The job for Vinod Kambli now is to go on and try and make it three figures.
00:23:23As is the job for his partner.
00:23:25Man out there.
00:23:32And he's dropped it.
00:23:33Stephen Peel will be mortified.
00:23:38Straightforward chance.
00:23:41Wasn't difficult at all.
00:23:42Had to just move out a few yards on to his right.
00:23:47Full toss from Stephen Peel.
00:23:48Thank you, said.
00:23:49Calmly, didn't connect it well.
00:23:50I would say quite a simple catch.
00:23:55Straight to his hand.
00:23:57And what a drop.
00:24:03Another single for Sindhu.
00:24:05And that's the 100 partnership.
00:24:08So both these batsmen, Kambli and Sadhu, doing a wonderful job for India.
00:24:13After India lost those three wickets early on.
00:24:15With only 32 on the board.
00:24:17And Sunny with the quarterfinal coming up.
00:24:19This should be very good news for India.
00:24:22It is.
00:24:23No question about it.
00:24:24Because both Kambli and Sadhu have been short of runs.
00:24:29Sadhu, in fact, has not been in the Indian team for the past couple of games.
00:24:33So this partnership.
00:24:36Very, very important.
00:24:38Not just from the team's point of view.
00:24:39But also from the individual point of view.
00:24:42Kambli has had some problems after that belligerent knock against the West Indians.
00:24:48He hasn't scored runs.
00:24:51So they all need an outing there.
00:24:54More so Kambli and Sadhu.
00:24:56Well, any batsman would tell you that it's always good to have runs under your belt.
00:25:07Especially when you go out next time around.
00:25:10Because you are a lot more confident.
00:25:12You prepare to take on the bowling a lot quicker than you would do when you are not in Nick.
00:25:17So with both these batsmen getting half centuries.
00:25:24The Indian team management should be very happy.
00:25:32Beautifully played by Kambli here.
00:25:34Waited on it.
00:25:35Opened the face of the blade.
00:25:36And got the placement absolutely right.
00:25:38Square of the wicket on the offside.
00:25:40138 for three.
00:25:42138 for three.
00:25:42138 for three.
00:25:42138 for three.
00:26:10Well, this is the second time in quick succession that we know Kambli has been put down.
00:26:19And the Zimbabweans might well rule this drop chance.
00:26:23Well, Kambel took that excellent catch to get rid of Mahmoud Azaruddin diving forward.
00:26:27And this is, in cricketing parlance, a sit-up.
00:26:39And Sidhu down the track this time.
00:26:43Cannot hit the ball out of the ground.
00:26:45Straight into the hands of the long off fielder.
00:26:49Heat streak.
00:26:50And finally, Paul Strang picks up a wicket.
00:26:52So Sidhu gone.
00:26:54174 for four.
00:26:58Of course, Sidhu finally losing patience.
00:27:01And as we said earlier, he's not quite happy trying to hit against the spin this time.
00:27:06Although he got hold of it, he wasn't able to clear that fielder at a long off.
00:27:10But he's played a valuable hand for India.
00:27:13Now Jodh thinks he's out for 80.
00:27:14India, 174 for four.
00:27:16So he will have to do a lot of running.
00:27:25The new man in, Ajay Jadeja.
00:27:26He comes in with just nine overs left.
00:27:29He's not had a very good run in this tournament.
00:27:33So he would like to make use of this opportunity.
00:27:39To get his form back.
00:27:41He's played 47 matches for India, Ajay Jadeja.
00:27:44He's got just that 100 against the West Indies at Katak.
00:27:50And he's here because of this.
00:27:53Now Jodh thinks Sidhu with 80 against his name.
00:27:55Now knowing that the overs are running out.
00:27:58Going for the big hit.
00:28:01He hit it very well.
00:28:04But was not able to clear the field.
00:28:06And Paul Strang has been very impressive.
00:28:08Beautifully played on the offside by Vinod Kambli.
00:28:16Stepping back on that back foot and crashing it through the covers.
00:28:20189 for four India after 43 overs.
00:28:23Kambli.
00:28:31Kambli.
00:28:31Five shot of his 100.
00:28:40Down the track comes Jadeja.
00:28:42He's taken the ball in the full and hit it many a mile over deep mid wicket.
00:28:46Six runs.
00:28:47It's not always easy to hit the full toss.
00:28:55Particularly when it comes over the knees.
00:28:59But Jadeja by stepping down the wicket.
00:29:02Has got it at just the right height.
00:29:04Where he can use the full swing of his arms.
00:29:07That brought up the Indian 200.
00:29:16Surprisingly that was the first six.
00:29:19Of the Indian innings.
00:29:27So I think 250 is going to be a pretty good score.
00:29:29Because I don't think it's all that easy to hit sixes.
00:29:31We've talked before about the difficulty in getting elevation in your shots.
00:29:35At this ground.
00:29:37Sure the outfield is very fast.
00:29:45And you might be able to beat a few outfielders along the ground.
00:29:49But I think with a slow pitch and a low bouncing pitch.
00:29:51It's not all that easy to hit sixes.
00:29:53So 250 is going to be a tough target.
00:29:56Yes and after lunch it would still go slower and lower.
00:30:01As you've seen the basic tradition.
00:30:04And as has been the character of this wicket.
00:30:05Is that it goes slower and lower as the game goes by.
00:30:10So 250 definitely is a very good score.
00:30:12Unto known as India bowled very badly.
00:30:14They are in with just four regular bowlers.
00:30:17And you'll be expecting Sachin Tendulkar and Jadeja to share as the fifth bowler.
00:30:22Kambli on ninety-nine.
00:30:32There's the hundred for the young man.
00:30:33A very excited player he is.
00:30:35That's very well played by Kambli.
00:30:47Played a superb innings.
00:30:48Coming in at a situation in India with three down for 32.
00:30:52Getting his second hundred in style.
00:30:54The first being at Jericho against England in January 93.
00:30:58And this is how he got it.
00:31:00Getting right on top of the ball.
00:31:02And look at that.
00:31:04Jubilation.
00:31:05It's been a long time since he got into runs.
00:31:08Definitely is a very happy man.
00:31:09So the Zimbabwean fieldsmen are now mostly back on the 30 metre circle.
00:31:28Not really trying to save singles.
00:31:30Trying more to keep cut down on the boundaries.
00:31:32At this whole moment they would be happy just giving away runs.
00:31:40Rather than coming close in the inner circle and leave more gaps.
00:31:45And less time for them to stop the balls.
00:31:47So the situation with just 3.3 overs to go.
00:31:51That is not a bad strategy.
00:31:59Zimbabwe are doing well so far.
00:32:01Cutting down on the boundaries.
00:32:02But that's excellent running to get back to the second.
00:32:08On a fuller length.
00:32:08Wanting to roll into the block hole.
00:32:12Rolling well wide.
00:32:14Giving the bats an opportunity.
00:32:18To take two runs.
00:32:31That's brilliant batting.
00:32:40Well again a fuller length.
00:32:46Outside the off stump.
00:32:49Calmly waiting till the very end.
00:32:51Letting the ball come on.
00:32:53Just guiding it past to.
00:32:54The vacant third man's a ball.
00:32:57Just look at that.
00:32:58But wanting to ball up into the block hole.
00:33:01And that is what basically is done by bowlers.
00:33:04Bowling into these log overs.
00:33:05But then calmly really doing well.
00:33:07He might have even got a wide had he not connected that.
00:33:10And it long on.
00:33:22And it's straight down his throat.
00:33:25Grant Flauer taking the catch.
00:33:26It was well taken.
00:33:27Because that was drilled flat and hard.
00:33:30That ends in excellent innings from Vinod Cambly.
00:33:32Superb innings of her character.
00:33:36It was quite obvious that after he gets his 100 he'll go for the shots.
00:33:39Which he exactly did.
00:33:41After playing that lovely late cut for four.
00:33:45On this occasion wanting to hit him over the top.
00:33:47As we've been talking from the very beginning.
00:33:50It won't be that easy to hit it over the top.
00:33:51But this occasion is not able to clear it.
00:33:54Cambly has gone for a brilliant 106.
00:33:57And they are 219 for five.
00:33:58Nayan Mongia.
00:34:03Who played so well in Mumbai against Australia.
00:34:07Comes in with India at 219 for five.
00:34:12That's a good batting average.
00:34:14Coming in as he does late in the innings.
00:34:16Not getting many opportunities to post a big score.
00:34:20Once again he comes in late.
00:34:23With Vinod Cambly being dismissed for 106.
00:34:28Well hit.
00:34:34And into the gap.
00:34:41Again drifting down the lakeside.
00:34:44Angling into the batsman.
00:34:45And Jaleja getting all the time and the opportunity to play that shot in the gap.
00:34:53This is what the Bullets should not try and do in these overs at the moment.
00:34:58They bowled so well.
00:35:00You see that one angling down the lakeside and going for four.
00:35:02Once again finding the gap out there.
00:35:10That's excellent placement.
00:35:12This is a much better over for India.
00:35:14Well the previous over by Streak has definitely been somehow or the other.
00:35:21Some way we made up in this over.
00:35:23Again down the lakeside.
00:35:24Jaleja stepping out.
00:35:26Seeing the ball angling away.
00:35:27Just guides it down to the vacant spot.
00:35:30As of the previous delivery.
00:35:31You have to take these chances.
00:35:37That's well hit.
00:35:55What a terrific start for the over.
00:35:584-4-6.
00:35:59Going straight into him.
00:36:06Angling it.
00:36:08And Jaleja just on half cock.
00:36:10Taking it on the rise.
00:36:13Get the ball angling into Jaleja.
00:36:14And Jaleja takes the angle.
00:36:15With the angle.
00:36:16Hits it over.
00:36:17Long on.
00:36:17Effortless shot.
00:36:22It's well hit but it's not going to reach the boundary.
00:36:26So Heath Streak doing an excellent job.
00:36:28And keeping India below 2.50.
00:36:31Just 29 runs conceded from his 10 overs.
00:36:35Heath Streak picked up the wicket of Tendulka.
00:36:39And it was just a generally all-round good bowling performance from Heath Streak.
00:36:45Well Vinod Cambly certainly rode his luck didn't he?
00:36:47And Zimbabwe paid for it.
00:36:49Sidhu's returned to form Welkin.
00:36:50And if Sachin Tendulka's failure is his only one of this tournament.
00:36:54He'll have timed that very well indeed.
00:36:55Heath Streak was the best of the Zimbabwean bowlers.
00:36:58For once Paul Strang found the going tough.
00:37:00So 248 the target for Zimbabwe.
00:37:03And in double quick time if they want to get their run rate above the West Indies.
00:37:06And that'll be right after this break.
00:37:08Nice placement there from Grant Flower.
00:37:26Now the Indian Fieldsman with these two players are going to be needing to throw to Andy Waller's end at every opportunity.
00:37:43Andy Waller is a slow runner.
00:37:45Grant Flower a very fast runner.
00:37:47So in that situation you really need to be throwing to the slow runner's end all the time.
00:37:52And make him work hard.
00:37:54And there's also the opportunity to might pick up a run out.
00:37:57This time it's Ben Katapati Raju with the chase.
00:38:16Not quite timing this one.
00:38:25Andy Waller gets a tickish inside edge but still manages to find the gap.
00:38:31So he won't be unhappy.
00:38:32Excellent shot.
00:38:50Just a lovely flowing follow through.
00:38:52Zimbabwe 11-12 for North.
00:38:55Grant Flower with Zimbabwe's first boundary in that last over.
00:39:02Magnificent shot.
00:39:04Just got a bit of width from Prasad and took full advantage.
00:39:08Again beautifully played by Grant Flower.
00:39:23Again easing it.
00:39:24In fact it's Andy Waller easing it through the covers.
00:39:26And a good attempt there by Jadeja on the cover fence.
00:39:30Unable to stop the ball.
00:39:31So another boundary for Zimbabwe.
00:39:33Well that's good tactics by the Zimbabwe players.
00:39:35They have to get after this new ball because once the ball gets old it's not going to come
00:39:40on to the bat and shot making is going to be difficult.
00:39:51Two more there to Andy Waller.
00:39:53Well yesterday was a great festival time in the city of Kanpur.
00:39:58And you see there the colour pink is the dominant one.
00:40:01That's the dye that they buy then put it in a bit of water.
00:40:04And good luck.
00:40:07Good luck getting it off.
00:40:09Ravi you kept telling me that it comes off quite easy.
00:40:11I've seen a few guys walking around with some pink hairdos today.
00:40:14I'll tell you what they'll have a bottle of turpentine in their pocket as well.
00:40:18They'll need at least a week before they can get that off.
00:40:21And what was it you were telling me about the silver stuff?
00:40:28That's the bad news is it?
00:40:30The silver stuff.
00:40:31Yeah that's oil paint that they use and that takes a little more than a week to get off.
00:40:35But we were lucky yesterday on a route from Lucknow to Kanpur.
00:40:40We had a couple of buckets thrown at the car.
00:40:43But luckily enough the windows were shut.
00:40:47And we managed to get away.
00:40:48You're being unduly modest.
00:40:53Ravi it was your good advice that had us in the back seat.
00:40:56So that was the Holy Festival yesterday.
00:41:01A festival of great colour.
00:41:03And Zimbabwe providing a festival of runs here in the last couple of overs as they race along to 21.
00:41:20And it's interesting that India haven't done as well in the games where Srinath has struggled to pick up wickets.
00:41:33And that's why I'm playing very nicely.
00:41:38Just waiting for the ball to come to him.
00:41:40He doesn't go out on a reconnaissance mission.
00:41:43Searching for the ball.
00:41:45Waits for it to come to him.
00:41:48Again a lovely piece of timing through the offside.
00:41:53Like Ian Chappell said.
00:41:54Just waiting on it and easing it through the covers.
00:41:58He's done that already three times in this innings.
00:42:00And he's got quite a few runs of that shot.
00:42:20That's well fielded.
00:42:22Brings up the 50 for Zimbabwe.
00:42:30Cambly very quick to get this ball back in the air.
00:42:32That's the strength of that bit of fielding.
00:42:34Off balance and it just puts off
00:42:35Grant Flower.
00:42:37Makes him think twice about the second run.
00:42:39Good work from Cambly.
00:42:40Other than explosive batting at the start of the innings
00:42:49the use of spinners has been a very great feature
00:42:53of the World Cup so far.
00:42:56Just a little bit of turn and not much pace
00:43:03under the bat there I suspect.
00:43:07Yes.
00:43:08Venkat Patiraja getting the ball to turn
00:43:09just a little bit and you can see the ball is keeping low.
00:43:12It's a well played stroke.
00:43:18Played it off the length which is why he was able to get it
00:43:20as fine as he did.
00:43:22Nicely controlled.
00:43:23Got his back parallel to the ground
00:43:25and had control of the stroke.
00:43:31Venkat Patiraja would
00:43:32obviously like to settle
00:43:34his line right.
00:43:36and the batsman is doing the right thing too
00:43:39by
00:43:40trying to make him think
00:43:41what line he should be bowling.
00:43:48There's a little story behind
00:43:49Andrew Waller
00:43:51playing in this tournament.
00:43:55He wasn't in in Zimbabwe's original 20.
00:43:57He's a farmer
00:43:58and
00:43:59runs a big business
00:44:0114,000 acres of it
00:44:02and
00:44:03wasn't able to get away.
00:44:05Then when David Houghton got injured
00:44:06it was a plea
00:44:07from his captain Andy Flower.
00:44:12It's got to be gone.
00:44:13Yeah.
00:44:14The nod from Steve Buckler
00:44:16it's an orthodox way of giving it out
00:44:18but we were just talking about
00:44:19the advantage
00:44:20of the silly point
00:44:21and the attacking tactic
00:44:22of the spin bowler.
00:44:24Really good thinking from India
00:44:25and the first breakthrough for them.
00:44:27This is what they were looking for
00:44:29that breakthrough
00:44:29and by having that fielder
00:44:32at silly point
00:44:32and Raju
00:44:34flighting the ball
00:44:35and drawing the batsman forward
00:44:36meant if he didn't quite cover it
00:44:38there was always a possibility
00:44:40of that go to silly point
00:44:41where the captain himself is standing.
00:44:43That's Zimbabwe's first wicket gone
00:44:45for 59.
00:44:51Guy Whittle is the new batsman
00:44:53strong driver of the ball.
00:44:54He's here because Grant Flower
00:44:58has been caught at silly point
00:44:59of Ben Kapadi Raju
00:45:01the cricket from India.
00:45:03and there it is
00:45:16off the bat
00:45:17and pad
00:45:18straight to
00:45:19Muhammad Azaruddin.
00:45:21next man in there
00:45:22Alistair Campbell
00:45:23one of the ones
00:45:24that shaved off
00:45:25his goatee beard.
00:45:27That's trouble
00:45:28and out.
00:45:29Beautifully caught.
00:45:30Tendulkar moving forward
00:45:31at mid wicket.
00:45:32We've seen two dismissals
00:45:33like that already today.
00:45:34The ball's not coming
00:45:35onto the bat.
00:45:36It makes the on drive
00:45:37a difficult stroke
00:45:37and Waller has fallen
00:45:39and Zimbabwe are in trouble.
00:45:42Yes, the wicket
00:45:43is a little bit
00:45:43on the slower side
00:45:44and unless you get
00:45:45right on top
00:45:46of the shot
00:45:47and get to the pitch
00:45:48of the ball
00:45:48there's always the danger
00:45:50of hitting the ball
00:45:51up in the air.
00:45:51We saw that in the morning
00:45:52and Tendulkar making up
00:45:54for his cheap dismissal
00:45:56with that brilliant catch
00:45:57and Andy Waller's gone
00:45:59for 22
00:45:59Zimbabwe 59 for 2.
00:46:05Mr. Campbell
00:46:06has taken guard
00:46:07and will face
00:46:08Neil Kingland.
00:46:13He's here because
00:46:15Ben Kapadi Raju
00:46:17did some real damage.
00:46:19Skidding the ball
00:46:20in with the arm
00:46:21to Grant Flower
00:46:22who inside edged
00:46:23onto his pad
00:46:23and well held
00:46:24by Mohamed Azaruddin
00:46:26but not as well held
00:46:27as Sachin Tendulkar
00:46:28here
00:46:28as Andrew Waller
00:46:30drove.
00:46:39And that's going
00:46:40to fall safely.
00:46:41Now Sidhu
00:46:45I'm sure he had
00:46:47a foot over the line
00:46:48and
00:46:49it'll be interesting
00:46:50to see
00:46:51what the decision is.
00:46:53In fact
00:46:53the umpire hasn't
00:46:54missed a trick.
00:46:54He's straight onto
00:46:55the walkie-talkie
00:46:56to get a replay.
00:46:57I think we'll find
00:46:58it's a 4.
00:47:00It's nicely hit
00:47:01safely into the gap.
00:47:04There we go.
00:47:15I would think
00:47:16that's a boundary.
00:47:16That's a boundary.
00:47:20That could run away
00:47:27to the boundary.
00:47:28Outfield is very fast.
00:47:2976 for 2.
00:47:47I don't know
00:47:51whether that was
00:47:51a chance or not
00:47:52but Tendulkar
00:47:54didn't look as sharp
00:47:54as he sometimes does.
00:47:56Well he didn't
00:47:56look happy either
00:47:57because I think
00:47:58this one came
00:47:59was hit back
00:48:00straight at him
00:48:01and it was
00:48:01a definite chance
00:48:02and it's not often
00:48:03you see Sachi
00:48:04and Tendulkar
00:48:05dropping catches
00:48:06like that
00:48:06because even though
00:48:07it was difficult
00:48:08he doesn't miss out
00:48:10on those.
00:48:1078 for 2.
00:48:25That's much more like it.
00:48:27A bit of real aggression
00:48:28from the Zimbabweans
00:48:29as Ian Chappell
00:48:29Chappell was talking
00:48:30about breaking
00:48:31your own shackles
00:48:32certainly done that
00:48:34Alistair Campbell
00:48:35and that's one way
00:48:36of doing it
00:48:37using your feet
00:48:37getting to the pitch
00:48:38of the ball
00:48:39and finding the gap.
00:48:41The man at Longhorn
00:48:41was wide
00:48:42so once he hit it
00:48:44a little straighter
00:48:45it was always going
00:48:46to be pressure
00:48:47on the fielder.
00:48:52He's got hold of that
00:48:53and given it
00:48:53a fearful piece
00:48:54there's a hammer
00:48:55one bounce
00:48:57four
00:48:58and this is the way
00:48:58Zimbabwe have got to go
00:49:00if they get right
00:49:00in this hunt
00:49:01for the victory today
00:49:03they've got all sorts
00:49:04of work to do
00:49:04in run rate
00:49:05lovely stroke
00:49:06India giving an example
00:49:10of their seventh
00:49:12bowler used
00:49:13Ajay Jajada
00:49:14captain won't think
00:49:18much of that line
00:49:18he's got away with it
00:49:19he's got a fine leg up
00:49:20and sprayed it
00:49:21from around the wicket
00:49:22down the leg side
00:49:22this is a good workout
00:49:24for the Indians
00:49:24even though they're not
00:49:26under tremendous pressure
00:49:27at this stage
00:49:28Jajay Jajay here
00:49:30just straying
00:49:30on that leg stump
00:49:31because not having
00:49:35the fifth specialist bowler
00:49:37they have to fall back
00:49:38on Tendulkar
00:49:38and Jajay Jajay
00:49:39so this really is
00:49:41good practice
00:49:43before the all-important
00:49:44game against Pakistan
00:49:46Ajay Jajay
00:49:57doing the trick there
00:49:58for India
00:49:59brought on
00:50:01as the seventh bowler
00:50:02getting the important
00:50:04wicket of Campbell
00:50:04trying to drive there
00:50:07and hitting the ball
00:50:08straight back to him
00:50:0996 for three
00:50:10Zimbabwe
00:50:11nice work by Jajay
00:50:18very sharp return catch
00:50:19and it's been difficult
00:50:20to drive the slow
00:50:21medium paces all day
00:50:23on the surface
00:50:23and that's why
00:50:24the ball isn't coming
00:50:25under the bat
00:50:26very good work
00:50:27from India
00:50:27and from Mohammed Azaruddin
00:50:29for bringing Jajay
00:50:30on the bowles
00:50:30Zimbabwe
00:50:3196 for three
00:50:32Andy Plower has successfully negotiated
00:50:46his first ball
00:50:46knocking it to square
00:50:47lane for a single
00:50:48Zimbabwe and captain
00:50:51at the crease
00:50:51disappointing time
00:50:53in the World Cup
00:50:54so far with a bat
00:50:55this is why he's here
00:50:57again Jajay
00:50:59inducing the batsman
00:51:00to drive
00:51:01Alistair Campbell
00:51:03not quite getting his foot
00:51:04to the pitch of the ball
00:51:05managing only to spoon
00:51:07a simple return catch
00:51:08to Ajay Jadeja
00:51:09he's a very good fielder
00:51:10and he makes even
00:51:12sharp chances
00:51:13look simple
00:51:13well he's one of Zimbabwe's
00:51:25leading batsmen
00:51:25Andy Plower
00:51:26but his form
00:51:28in this tournament
00:51:28has left a lot
00:51:29to be desired
00:51:30he's still to reach
00:51:32double figures
00:51:32in any one of his innings
00:51:34and this is the wicket
00:51:35of Campbell
00:51:36giving a simple
00:51:38cotton ball chance
00:51:39to Ajay Jadeja
00:51:40oh there's trouble
00:51:46here immediately
00:51:47and there's going to be
00:51:48a guess
00:51:48I'd have thought so
00:51:49Cyril Mitchley
00:51:50optionless
00:51:51but to ask
00:51:52for the second opinion
00:51:53we've got a third
00:51:54umpire alongside us
00:51:55it looks very
00:51:56very tight to me
00:51:57they're sent back here
00:51:58by Andy Plower
00:51:59it'll be interesting
00:52:00to see if Sachin Tendulkar
00:52:02has dropped the ball
00:52:03bails even before
00:52:04he's got his hands
00:52:05on the ball
00:52:06calmly coming in
00:52:07very quickly
00:52:08from backward square leg
00:52:09and shying at the stumps
00:52:10good throw
00:52:12and in fact
00:52:14this could be
00:52:14very very close
00:52:15it's very good work
00:52:26from the third umpire
00:52:27Mr. Samrasinghe
00:52:28he's given it
00:52:29a lot of thought
00:52:29looked at it
00:52:30at every angle
00:52:31and made absolutely
00:52:32the right decision
00:52:33good relief
00:52:49that'll be for
00:52:50the Zimbabwean skipper
00:52:51Andy Plower
00:52:52he's been involved
00:52:53in one or two runouts
00:52:54in this tournament
00:52:55this could be gone this time
00:53:00this is hopeless
00:53:01really and truly
00:53:02it's a wry smile
00:53:06as if to say
00:53:07this is the way
00:53:07of the tournament
00:53:08and there's been
00:53:10a change in decision
00:53:11by the umpire
00:53:11that's very interesting
00:53:12because
00:53:13he made to go off
00:53:24and Cyril Mitchley
00:53:25said no
00:53:26I'm sorry son
00:53:27but it's uh
00:53:27it's Whittle
00:53:30that's got to go
00:53:30not Flower
00:53:31Zimbabwe are
00:53:3799 for 4
00:53:38Craig Evans
00:53:43the new batsman
00:53:43strong right-handed
00:53:45striker of the ball
00:53:46Guy Whittle
00:53:47the man eventually
00:53:47judged out
00:53:48by Cyril Mitchley
00:53:49in a chaotic
00:53:52bit of cricket
00:53:53and that really
00:53:55was an awful
00:53:56mix-up
00:53:57and
00:53:57Guy Whittle
00:53:59sent on his way
00:54:00because obviously
00:54:01Cyril Mitchley
00:54:01thought that he
00:54:02hadn't crossed
00:54:03Andy Flower
00:54:05when the man
00:54:06Monger
00:54:06removed the bails
00:54:07well
00:54:14the skipper's
00:54:15got halfway
00:54:15down the pitch
00:54:16there
00:54:16kept going
00:54:18reckon that he's
00:54:19got past
00:54:19Guy Whittle
00:54:21so he's kept
00:54:22going
00:54:22the wry smile
00:54:23on his face
00:54:23as if to say
00:54:24that's the end
00:54:24of my tournament
00:54:25Cyril Mitchley
00:54:27has called him
00:54:27back and sent
00:54:28Guy Whittle
00:54:28on his way
00:54:29well in fact
00:54:30I'd like to
00:54:31take my words
00:54:32back here
00:54:32I think Mark
00:54:33you're absolutely
00:54:33right
00:54:34because Guy
00:54:36Whittle has to
00:54:36cross Andy
00:54:37Flower
00:54:37to be given
00:54:38out
00:54:38and by the
00:54:39look of things
00:54:40here he
00:54:40hasn't
00:54:41so I think
00:54:43Cyril Mitchley
00:54:43may have just
00:54:44got it wrong
00:54:44as I have done
00:54:45here in the box
00:54:46haven't got much
00:54:49else wrong
00:54:49this tournament
00:54:50I've got to say
00:54:51that's four
00:54:52an outside edge
00:54:52little outswinger
00:54:54from Adajajaja
00:54:55Craig Evans
00:54:59just leaning
00:54:59forward
00:55:00got a thickish
00:55:00edge to it
00:55:01and he ran
00:55:01away very fast
00:55:02it's a quick
00:55:02outfield
00:55:02a very good
00:55:03outfield
00:55:03here
00:55:04and even
00:55:06the diving
00:55:08fielder could
00:55:08do nothing
00:55:09about it
00:55:09so important
00:55:11where you place
00:55:12your man
00:55:12at deep
00:55:13third man
00:55:13and fine leg
00:55:14today
00:55:28we're also
00:55:29mixing things
00:55:29up
00:55:30just running
00:55:30his fingers
00:55:31across it
00:55:31and getting
00:55:31the slower
00:55:33off break
00:55:33going there
00:55:34as well as
00:55:34the little
00:55:35outswing
00:55:35of the ball
00:55:35before
00:55:36and another
00:55:47one's gone
00:55:47Zimbabwe
00:55:48are falling
00:55:49apart here
00:55:50Craig Evans
00:55:51not even
00:55:52settled at the
00:55:52crease
00:55:53having a big
00:55:53dart
00:55:54Adajajaja
00:55:55and paying
00:55:56the price
00:55:57well Craig Evans
00:55:59trying to hit
00:56:00the ball
00:56:00over mid-off
00:56:01even before
00:56:02he gets his
00:56:02eye in
00:56:03deceived here
00:56:04by Adajajaja
00:56:05the ball
00:56:06really not
00:56:07coming on
00:56:07a quickish
00:56:08off spinner
00:56:08and Anil
00:56:09Kumle

00:56:10no mistake

00:56:16gone
00:56:16106
00:56:17runs
00:56:17on the
00:56:17board
00:56:17some chaos
00:56:27in the
00:56:28Zimbabwean
00:56:28batting
00:56:29ranks
00:56:29now the
00:56:30wicket
00:56:30has gone
00:56:31Craig
00:56:31Evans
00:56:31and Heath
00:56:32Streak
00:56:32comes at
00:56:33the crease
00:56:33and the
00:56:34commentary
00:56:34box
00:56:34are two
00:56:34masters

00:56:38next mark
00:56:41three with
00:56:41the first
00:56:42one
00:56:42not the
00:56:42second
00:56:42Zimbabwe
00:56:47just
00:56:48falling apart
00:56:49here
00:56:50and
00:56:51unfortunately
00:56:52their
00:56:52skipper
00:56:53not having
00:56:55much of a
00:56:55world cup
00:56:56and I really
00:56:58think part of
00:56:59the problem
00:56:59is the fact
00:57:00that he's
00:57:00pushed himself
00:57:01down the
00:57:01batting
00:57:01order
00:57:02he quickly
00:57:04runs out
00:57:04of partners
00:57:05and
00:57:06Craig
00:57:07Evans
00:57:08here
00:57:08falling
00:57:11to
00:57:12the
00:57:13falling
00:57:14of
00:57:14Jadeja
00:57:15but the
00:57:25Indian
00:57:25batting
00:57:26although
00:57:26it has
00:57:27done well
00:57:29so far
00:57:30thanks mainly
00:57:30to Sachin
00:57:31Tendulkar
00:57:31it's the
00:57:33Indian
00:57:33bowling
00:57:33that is
00:57:34really
00:57:34the cause
00:57:34for worry
00:57:35and
00:57:36if
00:57:38Tendulkar
00:57:38and Jadeja
00:57:39can do
00:57:39the job
00:57:39then it
00:57:40will take
00:57:41a load
00:57:41off
00:57:41Azarabdin's
00:57:42shoulders
00:57:43excellent
00:57:50stroke
00:57:51from
00:57:51Andy
00:57:51flower
00:57:52that was
00:57:52a slower
00:57:52ball
00:57:53he used
00:57:53his feet
00:57:53well
00:57:54and made
00:57:55a very
00:57:55good strike
00:57:56over
00:57:56extra
00:57:56cover
00:57:57Zimbabwe
00:57:58141
00:57:59for five
00:57:59hit very well
00:58:19his streak is an
00:58:20excellent striker
00:58:20of the ball
00:58:21very dangerous man
00:58:23coming in in the
00:58:23lower half of the
00:58:24order
00:58:24hits it very hard
00:58:26and very cleanly
00:58:27it picks it up
00:58:29really well
00:58:29the ball is in the
00:58:30stumps and the
00:58:31streak
00:58:31goes to the
00:58:33full floor of the
00:58:33bat
00:58:33taking it on the
00:58:34rise
00:58:34and clearing it
00:58:35so easily
00:58:36for four
00:58:36worked away
00:58:46and it's four
00:58:47runs away very
00:58:49quickly down
00:58:50towards
00:58:50pavilion end of
00:58:52the ground
00:58:53very good little
00:58:55deflection from
00:58:56his streak
00:58:56very fast
00:58:59outfield
00:58:59and even the
00:59:01slightest of a
00:59:02chance
00:59:02Hudson playing in
00:59:03the gap
00:59:04definitely easy
00:59:05to get four
00:59:06runs
00:59:06you see this
00:59:06drifting down
00:59:07the leg
00:59:07flicks it
00:59:09very fine
00:59:10gets four
00:59:11runs

00:59:32that'll be
00:59:41four more
00:59:42plenty of
00:59:43power in that
00:59:44stroke from
00:59:44his streak
00:59:45Jodeda dropping
00:59:45short and at
00:59:46his pace and on
00:59:47this surface
00:59:47you certainly
00:59:48can't afford to
00:59:49do that
00:59:50Zimbabwe
00:59:50161 for
00:59:52five
00:59:52and nobody

01:05:58intended
01:05:59striker
01:06:00of the
01:06:00ball
01:06:00doesn't really
01:06:04suit Stephen
01:06:05Peel to be
01:06:05dressed up in
01:06:06pink and it
01:06:06doesn't suit
01:06:07Zimbabwe much
01:06:08either
01:06:08they're not in the
01:06:09pink in this
01:06:09tournament I'm
01:06:09afraid they've
01:06:10had a miserable
01:06:12month very
01:06:12disappointing for
01:06:13them a lot of
01:06:14enthusiasm for the
01:06:15game in Zimbabwe a lot
01:06:16of hard work has gone
01:06:17into their admission to
01:06:19full test status and it's
01:06:22been much harder for them
01:06:23under that sort of
01:06:24pressure to come and make
01:06:25an impression
01:06:25in the World Cup of
01:06:281996
01:06:28one of the problems for
01:06:31them is that the
01:06:31expectation is that much
01:06:33higher once you're a
01:06:34test nation and you
01:06:35can't sneak up on people
01:06:36like you had done
01:06:37previously
01:06:37well this is the wicket of
01:06:43Paul Strang in the
01:06:45previous over moving
01:06:46across the stumps
01:06:47trying to flick it on the
01:06:48onside making no
01:06:49contact and
01:06:51having his stump
01:06:53shattered
01:06:53no I'm past Steve
01:07:07Buckner won't think much
01:07:08of that the ball going
01:07:09well down the leg side
01:07:10Srinath another one of
01:07:12the seamers to come
01:07:13around the wicket to
01:07:14left-handers
01:07:15getting a bit of
01:07:18movement here Srinath
01:07:19but would have missed
01:07:20leg stump quite
01:07:21comfortably that
01:07:22delivery that's a better
01:07:26shout and out had to be
01:07:29Brian Strang playing
01:07:30all across Srinath who
01:07:31just got the ball to
01:07:33come back off the seam
01:07:34enough to cause the
01:07:36problem
01:07:36third time lucky for
01:07:38Srinath three appeals
01:07:39were turned down this
01:07:40time he gets this
01:07:41delivery to come back in
01:07:42a long way and
01:07:44Empire Steve Buckner
01:07:45had no problem in
01:07:46giving the batsman
01:07:47Brian Strang out
01:07:48195 for nine Zimbabwe
01:07:50Steven Peel is on
01:07:55strike and Charles
01:07:56Locke is the new
01:07:56batsman for Zimbabwe
01:07:58and Strang just
01:07:59bowled by Srinath
01:08:00Anil Kumble in
01:08:05operation and over the
01:08:06last three years I can't
01:08:07think of a more improved
01:08:08bowler in world cricket
01:08:10here's the dismissal you'll
01:08:11see absolutely dead LBW I
01:08:15reckon
01:08:16and that's four
01:08:24dismissive strike from
01:08:27Steven Peel
01:08:28and Kumble certainly
01:08:30wasn't happy with that
01:08:31shot played by Steven
01:08:33Peel
01:08:33gave him a real glare
01:08:36runs away very quickly
01:08:49and four
01:08:50thick outside edge for
01:08:51Peel
01:08:51Kumble won't be so happy
01:08:54well he certainly isn't
01:08:55amused it can be
01:08:56frustrating for a bowler
01:08:57and he's bowling at a
01:08:58number 11 who's having a
01:09:00go at him and getting
01:09:03runs where he actually
01:09:04doesn't intend to get it
01:09:05from well he feels he's
01:09:08been there long enough to
01:09:09handle Kumble much better
01:09:11than Charlie Locke
01:09:11it's gone up very high
01:09:16and out the game is over
01:09:19Venkapati Raju who's
01:09:20bowled so well has put an
01:09:22end to the 1996 World Cup
01:09:24for Zimbabwe
01:09:25disappointment for them
01:09:26but absolute jubilation
01:09:28around the Green Park
01:09:29Stadium where India have
01:09:31recorded a very effective
01:09:33victory
01:09:33well Spilier taking a chance
01:09:38once too often
01:09:39hitting Kumble
01:09:40on the onside getting a top
01:09:43edge and Venkapati Raju was
01:09:45never going to drop that one
01:09:46he had his eyes on the ball
01:09:48all the way down
01:09:49so Zimbabwe's World Cup
01:09:57campaign came to an
01:09:58inevitable conclusion they
01:09:59lost by 40 runs and
01:10:00frankly never in that run
01:10:02chase looked like
01:10:02challenging India and the
01:10:04next time we'll see them on
01:10:05Sky Sports will be next
01:10:07winter when England tour
01:10:08there
01:10:08Sridhar's figures respectable
01:10:10and he did well at the death
01:10:11but once again it was the
01:10:12Indian spinners who looked to
