India get 157.

A competitive score and still anybody's game.

They still had 5 wickets and so should have tried to hit out a bit more. I think we are about 25 runs short of a really competitive total. Now the bowlers and fielders will have to work that much harder.

157 is about 20 short of a competitive score with that really short boundary to exploit.Well bowled Pakistan,can the batsmen finish the job though?

Looks like it . With Joginder Sharma's 4 overs probably good for almost half the runs required.

Well RP Singh has taken two already, and we're only in the third over.

As I said earlier, anybody's game.

With Sreesanth compensating for Singh's success, anything can happen. Looks like the good result against the Oz has gone into Sreesanth's head.

I think that's probably fair Nostromo. Sreesanth is an excitable character, but I think he overdoes it sometimes, in an Andre Nel sort of way.

Edit: Not sure what YK is doing; just played out a maiden to Santh of all people!

Now Singh bowls an expensive over! This game seems to be lurching from one extreme to another.

The dangerous looking Nazir is just run out. Powerplays are almost over.

Pak 78/6 after 12 overs with Malik and Afridi gone. Welcome back Irfan Pathan . Looks like the game is swinging India's way, but they must not let their guard down even after the fat lady arrives.
