Was it something like Jason Gillespie's test double century, Glenn McGrath's half-century, Allan Border taking 11 wickets in a test match against the West Indies or Bangladesh defeating Australia in a One-Day international last year?\n\nOr was it something completely different?

South Afruca chasing 434 successfully is the greatest surprise in the history of the game.

Brian Lara is more patient & leads his side from the front\nwhereas Sachin is technically a bit unsound\nLara has got bigger scores under his cap

Yes, it was a classic display of swing bowling by pathan... A batsman cant do much about these type of deliveries... But yeas the way middle stump was uprooted... it makes me very happy..... :-)\n\nI think at that moment afridi would have forgot all his styles...

Well...I can remember what Ian Chappel said in an interview...If someone point a gun on my head and ask to chose lara or sachin then i will definitely go on say it is lara but for me i will not risk until someone point a gun on my head. To score a record breaking score once and then do that again after 10 years is something very special and no batsman had done this so far and doing that in years to come seems bleak in the meantime the way he equaled the record is by hitting a SIX followed by a FOUR which is something Sachin will never chose to do in a special moment like this. No doubt sachin is a great batsman but he does choke in crucial parts of the innings where he open the batting with no pressure on but in the case of Lara he has scored all these runs coming in the middle order which is significant ability to carry the pressure and that special character makes him best and better batman in the world. Even Sachin will agree that Lara is one step ahead of him however there is another man who has not scored big runs yet but for sure he'll end up with most centuries and leading run scorer when he done with test arena...Ricy Ponting with 31 centuries in 105 matches comparing to the 34 (129 Matches) of Lara & 35 (132 matches) of Sachin\n\nI am sorry to dissapoint you coz i think u expected everyone to say Sachin...

Ur right, west indies might end up winning. I think India came into this tour under estimating Windies. N as much as it was Zimbabwe, a winning habit is good n one which west indies have benefited from. India should watch out. plus Lara is doing a better job 3rd time asking.

To me Ricky Ponting is argeably the best batsman in world cricket and agree with his decision not to enforce the follow on but showed a real weak side as a captain by batting on on the fourth day. Let's hope that Ashley Giles will justify his position in the side and make a ton tomorrow and win us the first test. Otherwise bring back Monty for the second test and get Steve Harmison to an opticians.

Ability wise I didn't see much difference. The difference really was temperament. Why else would have Vishy's career peter down? His bro-in-law, Sunny however excelled till the end. A 96 on a crumbling wicket in his last innings. And a glorious 188 against the MCC XI in his last first class match. (A second innings duck too BTW).\n\nVishy started off well...till everything for him stated going haywire.

Previous highest score was 359/2 at CWC-2003 scored by Australia.\nhttp://eap.cricinfo.com/db/STATS/BY_GROUND/508/ODIS/HIGH_INNS.html\nThe second highest run chase victory was when RSA chased Indian total of 279 successfully with 6 wickets to spare in 5th Oct 2001.\nhttp://eap.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/2001-02/OD_TOURNEYS/SBTT/SCORECARDS/IND_RSA_SBTT_ODI1_05OCT2001.html\nIt is definetly a batsman's pitch.\n\nI'm sorry previosuly I made a mistake.

No.  They played 90 minutes and Australia had a man advantage for 40 of them.  They can only blame themselves for not having scored before then.

Don't listen to them!\nAUSTRALIA!! number 1 in Tests and 1 day matches! Nuff said!

Well I agree with them. There are reaching their ends. Especially McGrath and Warne. Warne is the Champion Leg-spinner. I think age doesn´t affect him that much because he is a Spinner and doesn´t need to run or bowl at quicker pace like a Fast-bowler. But that´s not the case with McGrath. All the the batsmen, young in particular, have shown that he is´t a bigger threat anymore. He just bowls at a good lenght. One can play that even by moving his feet. There isn´t a superior pace anymore, either. The one who thinks that he shouldn´t be giving him his wicket, will be making a mistake, like India did. Just attack. If you can attack, every bowler in the world would come under certain pressure. So, I think McGrath, in particular, has passed his prime and should be retired from International-Cricket.\n\nRawal.

actually  K the right answer to your question is belinda clark of austrailia who scored 229 not out(not 220) against denmark in mumbai in 1997.\nur question was a smart one i must admit quite hard to find these days\nin mens cricket its saeed anwar.

India have the trumph card in the form of harbajan as far as i am concerned. He is the experienced player and the experience shows. After  a blistering start by windies he and agarkar restricted the scoring rate and eventually windies could score only 250, 25  runs short which looked very much possible. \n\nHarbajan great job done!

massive advantage. there is a reason australia havent lost a series since 1992 in australia. \n\n1. its hot. really hot, and the english are used to cool overcast conditions. \n2. these conditions in england are helpful for swing bowling, but the ball swings less in australia so Hoggard and Anderson are useless. \n3. IN england they use a Duke ball, in aust. they use a Kookaburra ball. Again the duke ball swings, the kooka doesnt. aust lost last year because they couldnt handle the swing that all of englands bowlers got. but the ball doesnt swing in aust so its a lot easier for aust to score big runs. \n4. australias pitches are the bounciest in the world, and england struggle to adjust to the extra bounce generated by the pace bowlers. aust are used to these pitches.\n\nvenues: Gabba is always first test, aust havent lost there since 1988, its warnes best ground in aust altough its typically a pace bowlers ground. warne gets huge bounce at gabba. as its the first test and the hottest city that tests are played in, touring sides are usually smashed at the gabba, unable to handle the heat or the bounce and this sets the tone for the rest of the series.  \n\nWACA is good for pace bowling getting huge bounce as well. SCG is good for spin bowling. aust usually play two spiinners at the scg at this is the last test of the tour usually. only the subcontinent sides (india etc) are good at playing spinners. the english are not.
