LOL Garima 😆 I have to agree though all the men on SL team are far from good looking.. some are freaky looking actually with their weird hairdos

shilpa, even i dont know whether his balls were long or short..but i keep hearing the commentators say that this delivery was long and good. and that was short and bad. i try to understand what they'r saying though, but the technicalities in bowling are tough to grasp, unlike batting!

i even have a hard time understand LBW sometimes! i just do not get the whole idea of leg before wicket and how a decision is taken! 😆

yes, i agree!! she just runs off somewhere the moment we start speaking about cricket !! but she did tell me via msging that she saw some of the first and second innings and even recognised the people we told her to remember!

and she said she saw priety zinta in the crowd, so yea, she has seen it. :p

the guy with the golden brown reallllly curly and messed up hair is Malinga, and his bowling speed is tremendous!!! i get freaked when i see him bowl. he has a weird style of bowling. he literally chucks the ball. it doesnt even look like a legal delivery! he just randomly throws it at the batsman's face!

I dont get the whole studying the pitch, all of them look same to me 😆 and bowling ka fundas too I don't get completely. I'm just happy as long as too many 4s and 6s aren't hit on Indian bowling.

and I get lbw, the hawk eye thing is really helpful though. otherwise a good handful of decisions would have been wrong, take Sachin's in this past game for example..

Oh yes I have seen Malinga's bowling.. I watched the highlights of their match against England. But yeah it's unconventional and my dad was saying previously bowlers wouldn't be allowed to sling the ball like that from the side, but I guess that rule has been changed off late.

shilpa, here, check out the way Malinga bowls. Notice his arms when he's just about to throw the ball to the batsman:
