Excellent innings by Tendulkar! India wins a game in the finals in Australia for the 1st time in 30 years.

Congratulations Team India!

The highlight for me today was when channel 9 went for an ad break after Harbhajan had finished bowling an over. Next came an ad which comes on occasionally where farmers are asked to report if they have any of the noxious weed 'parthinium' on their property.
Coincidence perhaps..

Hilarious, wasn't it? Was it after the over in which he weeded out Symonds or Hayden? Pure genious...

Aussie crords are disgusting - they made several abusive comments on Harbhajan's religion - asking him to untie his know and sledging him - In return, there's nothing wrong in Bhaji spitting towards the abusers

Australian fans hurled abuses at visitng Indian journalists last time when India visited Australia - Brisbane was the famed venue then

So, why accuse Harbhajan alone - Arrest all the fans who abiused him and out them away for a year or more - this is what ICC referree Crowe should recommend

Doesnt it hurt to get beaten in your own backyard and in your own (off field) game too?!Maybe if the Aussies stop weeding and start playing, it might help... and ya a certain gentleman surely needs a haircut!

Yes I thought it was an excellent innings by Tendulkar but was disppointed with the Aussie Bowlers though I feel they were very unfortunate and Mitchel Johnson was expensive.

The Aussies batting top order except Hayden were responsible once again for collective failure of the team.

The common wealth series looks to me will be won by India as happend last year when it went to England in a very similar circumstances.

Congratulations to Tendulkar and India especially the young spin bowler , I thought spin bowlers including Harbhagan played very well.Felt sorry for pathan as he was expensive and unfortunate.

But I have to say am disppointed with India as a team out of the pitch in that whenever one of their player is fined or questioned about an allegation, they want to bring the opposing team into disrepute or threaten to cancel tournament. Last time they even requested Umpire to be replaced, all these kinds of demands have to be dealt with by ICC because it does not help promote sporstmanship.

The counter claims of un-sport'smanly conduct has made this tournament less interesting for me. In future less games between the two teams would be desirable.

I prefer Aussie victory tonight but would not be suprised if India win.

They have shown themselves on the pitch as capable champions.

He he he.... not many Aussies on this topic, wonder why ?

Well done Bhuji, perfect response given to his tormentors, dont need to say anything regards Sachins perfomance. Hope India clinch the finals 2 - 0 tommorow.
