Sri Lanka v India
breezy
Wellington has affray, from howling Hambantota. The ground here is
surrounded by miles of forest and when the breeze assaults, it actually
does, from roughly west to east and right across the rectangle. It
nearly blows you off your feet; the reduced stands and lawn banks are no
barriers at all. The breeze is supreme through the day but halts at
evening, creating distinct challenges for the batting and fielding edges
throughout the first innings.
Batsmen
have to be very cautious the strong breeze doesn't hurl them off their
stance, as Virender Sehwag said today. That is not their biggest
concern, though. "You have to be careful when playing your shots against
the breeze or with the breeze," Sehwag said. "But we have performed in
Dambulla and in Wellington, now we are utilised to the wind."
South Africa vs England
South
Africa 637 for 2 dec (Amla 311*, Kallis 182*, Smith 131) trounce
England 385 (Cook 115, Trott 71, Prior 60, Morkel 4-72) and 240 (Bell
55, Steyn 5-56) by an innings and 12 sprints
South Africa, superior since the start of the second day, secured an innings and 12-run triumph at The Oval as they smashed the back of some obstinate England opposition either edge of the new ball on the last after noon. Ian Bell and Matt Prior had given the dwelling edge wish, but Imran Tahir broke the stand and Dale Steyn then cooked with steam in to finish with 5 for 56.
The outcome was nothing less than South Africa warranted for a presentation that verified what a formidable group they are and they accomplished it on a ground where they had not won in 13 preceding endeavours. Indifferent on the first day, they barely put a base wrong from the instant they rattled England on Friday forenoon. Showing the advantage of a finely balanced strike including stride, swing, seam, correctness and spin, they did not fret when resistance was being put up.
