India win by 80 runs !

Apart from Gayle and Pollard, the most dangerous batsman is Darren Bravo, hailed as the new Lara ! Now he is gone, holed out to Bajji, off Raina !

While Ashwin got the scalp of Kirk Edwards with a carrom ball early, the next wicket took a lot of time to get. Bravo lofted Ashwin for six.

India opened with a spinner, Ashwin. And with a carrom ball he had the inexperienced Edwards lbw !

Now WI are 92/2. Devon Smith has scored a 50 and is now joined by R Sarwan.

Dhoni brought his main bowlers Zaheer and Bajji, who responded well. Zaheer clean bowled Devon Smith for 81 and WI were 3 down. Then Pollard lofted Bajji and was caught at the fence by Pathan ! WI 159/4 !

Now WI have lost 9 wickets for 186 and India will be meeting Aus at Motera ! WI will be meeting Pak.

Zaheer took 3/26, Yuvraj 2/18, Ashwin 2/41 and Bajji 1/35.

It was obvious who will be the Man of the Match. Yuvraj with his brilliant 113 and his spell of 2/18 was without a rival !

Indian fans are a bit irate that India has not yet mastered the batting Powerplay. Seven wickets fell for 33 runs against Eng, against SA it was 9/29 and now it was 7/50! ( WI lost 8 wickets for 34 runs yesterday. From a commanding position of 154/2, they fell abysmally to 188 all out ).

Now with Ashwin in, Indian bowling looked better. Dhoni had many options, Ashwin and Bajji as offies, Yuvraj as a left arm spinner and again Pathan and Raina as offies. Zaheer proved that he is a master of reverse swing and it is he who is placed No 2 in the WC, with 15 wickets ( The first, is the formidable Afridi, with 17 wickets ). Baaji bowling a maiden was cheered by the 50 K crowd and it was Bajji who got rid of the dangerous Pollard ! Fielding also has improved, with Raina outstanding !
