English pacer, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/United-Arab-Emirates-c3033 (UAE).
Broad, who gave a superb batting performance on Friday as he prevented Pakistan from crashing England on an unimpressive tally, admitted that the match is still not clear and the game could go either way.
"This has been an amazing Test match so far - one for the purists, I suppose - quite slow cricket sometimes, but very intriguing. It really can go either way," opined the lanky bowler.
He revealed that http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 know that they only need two more wickets to get to Pakistan’s tail and once that happens, they are capable enough to mop up the Pakistani batting line-up and then chase the required target successfully to win the match.
At stumps on day three, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 lead by 55 runs with 6 wickets remaining.
Fluency of footwork missing in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sourav-Chandidas-Ganguly-c90746, as the man they call “The Wall” has had his stumps shattered quite a few times in the ongoing four-Test series against Australia.
“He just seems to get surprised by the deliveries coming into him and the bat face turns, which allows the ball to go through. That fluency of the footwork has gone completely missing and he will have to work very hard to get it back," the former India skipper argued.
Indian off-spinner, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 as the side has had a terrible run in the ongoing four-match Test series where they are down by 3-0.
"Everything is going to start fresh. It is going to be a different ball game. The colour of the ball also changes. So hopefully we can change our luck as well," Ashwin said while emphasising on the upcoming tri-nation ODI series.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 are in trouble in the final match as after being given a target of 500 runs to win the match, they managed to amass 166 runs for the loss of six wickets at stumps on Friday, January 27, 2012.
