Watched a wonderful cricket test match after a long time. It was really tiresome to watch the match all the night from here at Atlanta and then run to office the next day without a decent sleep. Nowadays it has become very cold here around 1 degree celsius (33F) which is pretty low when compared to other northern and north-eastern parts of US. Last time i watched a test match was against Pakistan at Bangalore just before i left for USA which we eventually lost. Indians after having fared poorly in the rain affected Chennai test, came back to win the test comfortably. Tendulkar after a long wait reached his record breaking 35th ton in test cricket surpassing Sunny. But it was Irfan Pathan who made the magic as a makeshift opener with his brilliant 93 against the attack of Muralidharan and Vaas. Had a chance to watch Murali's doosra and Kumble's flippers. Kotla is always a lucky ground for Kumble. I do remember his match-winning 10-79 against Pakistan. Felt sorry for India's most successful captain Saurav's exclusion from the Indian team after faring pretty good with a decent 39 and 40 at the Kotla.
