New face Pragyan Ojha earned a place in the Test Squad. Ojha, the Hyderabad left-arm spinner, told "It’s a dream come true. Any cricketer would want and expect to play for the country." Further more he said  "I didn’t particularly think about the Sri Lanka series but I knew if I keep bowling well I would get a chance. No wild celebrations now as I want to perform on the field. I will be concentrating on my flight and changes in pace and will generally try to bowl like I do in the Ranji Trophy."

Gautam Gambhir replaces Wassim Jaffer in this series. Irfan Pathan, Piyush Chawla, Mohammad Kaif and Ramesh Powar are the other omissions from the Test squad that featured in the home series against South Africa.

Today’s Special : Sachin First Ever Test Century

July 8th, 2008 No Comments   Posted in Today's Special

Sachin First Ever Test Century which he made against englad at Old Trafford Cricket Ground, Manchester on 14th Aug 1990. He made 119 not out. Video Also Includes his first innings fifty.

 

England pile up 519 on a benign pitch, and India reply with 432. England stretch the lead to 407, and though the pitch is still good and the bowling (Malcolm, Fraser, Lewis, Hemmings) not terribly menacing, India find themselves in deep water at 127 for 5 with only one recognised batsman left. And he’s only 17 years old. Tendulkar battles for nearly four hours, grimly but never dourly, and ends the day with 119. India lose only one more wicket, ending up with 343. With one more session, they might even have won.
