DOG TAIL STORY REPEATS!

There is a story about the. Most trusted& faithful Dog that the tail of Dog even if Put in a straight pipe for years together ,when it is taken out it would still remain as curved as ever!Similarly there is yet another story that "carrying water in a pot until dark & breaking it at dawn" These two ,stories or to be more précis these sayings,appears to be true as is evident ,the way way the Indian Team performed at the Eden Gardens Kolkatta on 8thDec 2012. Sehwag ,as usual at the crucial juncture,got himself Bowled at the same score of Lunch.86/1.But the Indian Agony did not end there.Gambhir tried an impossible run which Wasn't there forcing Poojara to respond with the resultPoojara ,who was playing so nice & tactful became the victim of an unwanted run at98/2 Poojara was once again attempting a technically faultless innings. As if the tradition counts & History repeats,Gautam Gambhir was caught behind by Prior off Finn at 103/ Sachin Tendulkar after playing a few technically justifiable balls suddenly fell at 107/4 just after contributing 5 runs. This marked the beginning of the Tragedy for India that too at the Eden Garden where Indian cricket rose from perish. In the 35th over at119/4India looked improving.But alas!In the 37th over Yuvraaj Singh Who was doing a recovery act also fell unfortunately bowled by Anderson.score Card Read 122/5. Captain Dhon joined Kohli.Despite the reputation of Dhoni to fight in such crucial junctures,toneveryone's surprise Dhoni fell at the score of zero without any addition on the scorecard.The score 122/6.The situation at the Eden Garden for Indian cricket Had aggravated. Then came the fall of most precious wicket of Virat Kohli who had prolonged the game until 155" on the board.the fall of Kohli at 155/7 marked total disaster for Indian cricket threatening resonably to an innings defeat at the hands of England. But then itbwas not son easy.A Hero & Saviour came to the crease in the form of an llrounder ASWIN,ONE OF THE BEST SPINNERS& BATSMEN OF INDIA EVER SEEN. ASWIN HAD THE REPUTATION OF BATTING WELL IN DOMESTIC TOURNAMENTS WHICH HE PROVED ON THE 8th& 9th December beyond doubt once again. In the company of Indian Tail Enders Sahirkhan,Ishant Sharma& Ppragyan Ojha ASWIN FOUGHT ENDLESSLY UNTIL HE AVOIDED AN ANTICIPATED INNINGS DEFEAT& successfully posting an envious lead of 40 runs over England The Indian Second Innings perished at 247 when Pragyan Ojha giving support to Aswin For a very long time fell at 247. ASWIN REMAINED NOT OUT & returned to Pavilion unbeaten at 91 to come back to the Eden Gardens to test the Patience of the England Team. ASWIN REMOVED CAPTAIN COOK& Kevin Pietersen the former stumped by Dhoni for just a a single& the later For a duck caught by him off Aswin. Pragyan Ojha added one more wicket making The Britts sweat beyond recognition. The Wicket Pragyan claimed was that of Jonathan Trot for just 3 runs. England, later on won the match scoring 41 runs for the loss of 3 wickets of the STEWARTS OF ENGLAND TEAM. The hero of the day was none other than Aswin with 91 glorious runs to his credit which Not merely avoided an Innings defeat but was highly successful in posting 40 runs lead To fight for the visitors as well. Congratulations to Aswin the hero of 9 th December 2012 at the Eden Gardens Kolkatta. Thus,EDEN GARDENS WITNESSED THE FALL OF INDIAN CRICKET AT THE SAME VENUE WHERE IT HAD WITNESSED THE ARISING OF THE INDIAN CRICKET FROM IT'S DOOM!!!. Now,I am so sure that the Indian cricket would show it's might,strength& Vigour at NAGPUR WHERE INDIA WOULD AVENGE THIS HUMILIATING DEFEAT TO MAKE THE SERIES A LEVELLED ONE THOUGH ,INITIALLY, IT WAS THE INTENTION AND HOPE OF INDIAN CRICKET TO FORCE AN EVENTUAL WHITEWASH ON THE VISITORS SreedharanMundanat 9th December2012 16-35 HRS
