India v England, 1st Test, Chennai, Dec 11-15 (II)

With the poms all shitting themselves, the best result now would be a subi collapse . . . they'd be gutted and the poms would hardly feel like boasting . . . win-win . . .

Taipan,

You don't have anything to say about "typo's" ?

Plenty of singles taken by both the batsmen.

No since it is an abbreviation I didn't see the need.

For the record ... my shi**ing was all dun n dusted yesterday during Sehwags onslaught.
Today is just agonising misery.

57 more required.

Yuvraj dropped by Prior.

Very tough chance though.

He'll console himself with a spin in his Porsche when he gets home.

Super shot by Yuvraj.

Shastri : "The closer India get to victory, the more people will turn up and the crowd will increase"

So, judging from that comment Indians only turn up at test matches when their side looks like winning ... viz., empty stands on the first 3 days!!!

Less than 50 required now.

The only acceptable plural of "typo" is "typos" . . . who is trying to argue for "typo's"?

Sorry, merls, but that sounds a touch bitter . . .

He were arguing agin it.

SRT may not get his ton at this rate.

What an innings this by Yuvraj!!!

19 to get out of possible 46.

I think if he stays undefeated he'll get there.

So other than Prior's recent drop, has there been any other chances put down?

You still didn't get it even after I gave the hint ?

I'll make it simple for you:
typo's is not the plural form of typo. Its typos. Usage of 'apostrophe' in plurals is wrong.
For someone who's obsessed with nitpicking others' posts, that's really an elementary mistake.

Now imagine how many times you've made the same mistake in your 9000 odd posts.

[bucky]I reckon this is a set-up. No way the poms are this shit, and no way Yuvi can score pressure runs . . . .it's all a "feel good" exercise for the subi fans . . . [/bucky]

Got no graciousness left in me tac ... I'm clean out of nice things to say having already said them.
Congrats India - good win ... but my obversation on the empty stands still stands (ha ha ha .... geddit?)
I hate fecking laughing right now....so I'll restrict it to just the 3 'ha' feckin' ha's.
Gutted.
Absof**kinglutely gutted.

Is this the last throw of dice for KP?

Bad luck Merls. Tis a horrible feeling.

First 2 days - 10,000 plus
3rd n 4th days - I think 15-20 K (not sure, but bigger crowd than first 2 days)
5th day - 30,000 approx.
