Good Start and Strong step forward...

We started off with a good first step by beating W.I. in the warm match. Especially thrashing them in 26 overs to win comfortably by chasing them. Totaly an astonishing start to boost the moral of Dravid boys. We needed this push before we get started with the big days ahead.

This really is a good display which has good sign to send message to the indian hearts all over the world, that our team is well ready and equipment in all departments to give a good fight to make all our dreams come true. The dream we all been waiting to make it live to have our second World cup.

While we cherish this moment, we just have to hold back and say that its just a warmup match and we havn't even started the real show yet.

This should also send a strong message to other teams that we are coming and get ready..

Real quick analysis:

A very promising bowling by our young first timers - Munuf, Pathan and Agarkar. Especially impressive bowling by Munaf 4 for 10. Zaheer did make good impression by starting first with some early wickets and giving pressure to W.I. team. This what we want . We should stop the hitting before it even starts and slow down the run rates.

Real showcase by D Karthik who struck 38 and R Uthappa who made 35 runs. Sehwag still not caught up to the speed and trying to settle down to find his form.

Lesson learned:
Good team effort. We should continue this one. Dravid should watch out for Sehwag and try to come with a batting place where he can settle down to find his form. May be he will be better off batting after him before Sachin. We have to get settled before we start playing the big league matches.

Overall, Good show by boys and hope to see more of this coming...
