Yes my friend I think it is a very good news that he is among the runs. Although a few people may say that he is caught at a very slow rate of a button it was evident from the kind of pitch which we got today. There was grass and so it will help the seamers. I personally think that it will be a low scoring match. But then after the opening partnership was broken very early he held the innings together and they scored a very good total at the end of the day. Were we lost some time due to bad light otherwise the score would have been a bit more than what we have ended on but then again that is a different issue. He played well and he looked confident. And it is very important that a player like him is making runs for the team because when he is in the team a lot is expected from him. He has a very important role to play. Coming at number tree is a very difficult position and you have to be very versatile to be and that position. To have these qualities in him but the only problem with him was that he was not able to make a good impression and score runs a stop I hope now he gets the confidence and regain his farm. The way he was playing I think he is now the same old wall which we had. And definitely it is a very good news for the test side. It

Yes. Dravid at last played a sensible knock. I think he realized how crucial is to perform in this match for him personally. Today, Dravid was very much comfortable in the grease and doesn't seem to be struggling. In the previous games, he struggled a bit and in this innings he just played a patient innings and was cool throughout the day. Surely his knock will be useful for India in this match and If he go ahead and make a century here, then it will be a confident booster for him.
