Sehwag doesn't get his hundred. Totally deserved it. Commentator says bowled on purpose. :ph34r:
It is instances like this ,which i do not like with Sangakkara as a captain.

Seems to over do the cleverness on some occasions.

Sri Lanka obviously felt the weekly rivalry needed spicing up a bit. Wouldn't have expected something like this from them.

Yeah, I thought I picked up Sanga saying something to Randiv after the 4 byes. Unnecessary and disappointing really.

Great knock by Sehwag!! Congratulations to India.

So, every team has a win and NZ and India have the extra bonus point. It's an even series so far.

What happened to win the toss, bat first, win the game? :dry:

I didn't watch the game. Whose fault was the no-ball? Randiv, or were there instructions from Sangakkara? WAC.

I'm going to watch the post-match presentation with a million and one **** prizes for this alone. Hope they grill Sanga on this. Sehwag is too cool to care about it really. :cool:

Sanga apparently had a word with Randiv when the scores were level.
WAC. Really. Who does something like this so blatantly? It's about as subtle as Afridi taking a bite out of a ball. Sanga seems to be an intelligent man. Does he not understand that an act like this could sour relations between the two teams for a long time?

Randiv pulled out of the delivery stride when he was about to get his footing right for a legal delivery then bowled a deliberate no-ball. **** Sanga, starting to hate the ****.

Yeah, but he couldn't have guessed Randiv failed so hard when it came to tact.

There was something similar in an earlier test match with India in India. India scored 420 odd Srilanka scored 750 odd. Sachin and Laxman saved the game on the lat day. Sanga wanted the game to be called off before the mandatory overs but Sachin and India obviously wanted to play on as Sachin was near his hundred. Sanga went on to whine and deliberately asked his bowlers to bowl wide off the wicket. Sachin though was cool and crawled to his hundred.

I'm not entirely sure they wanted to make it seem an accident. Bowling a no-ball is pretty easy. You just start off from half a foot or so ahead of the spot your normal run up begins. Sanga had better search the net for whatever excuse Greg Chappell must have spouted out after the underarm incident, because God knows he's going to need it.

Could've done something better like just come around the wicket, or bowl left handed, or chuck it.

The BCCi should threaten ICC to correct the scoreboard and give Sehwag the hundred+remove Sanga from SL captaincy or threaten to go home. Only reliable solution.:ph34r:

Hey, how's picking Sanga straight off the bat in the draft working out for you? :p
