India vs Australia, 4th Test, Day 2
Day 1 of the 4th Test was some sort of bizarro world for an Australian fan. The Indian openers came out and attempted to bludgeon our bowlers out of the game. Offspinner Krezja made his Test debut with his first 3 overs going at 10 runs per over. As a spinner who's taken some stick myself, I can sympathise!
However, there were some moments when Australia rallied (or India faltered depending on how you want to look at it). Quick wickets fell in the first and last session so the game is fairly evenly poised at this point. But the first two sessions of Day 2 will be crucial. India will either bat Australia out of the game to clinch the series or Australia will claw their way into at least a potentially winning position. Much will fall upon debutant Krezja - a heavy load for a newbie. Live score courtesy of Cricinfo

And there's always the 2nd innings...
From a bowler's point of view, I wouldn't care about the 200+ runs. I'd be absolutely chuffed to take 8 wickets, particularly batsmen of the calibre of Dravid, Laxman, Sehwag, Ganguly, Dhoni - not to mention having Tendulkar dropped twice.

But he also has made a record of conceding the most runs by a bowler on debut beating Omari Banks for West Indies against Australia in Barbados 2003.

The problem is Punter does not favour Stuart Clark. Indians play Clark with caution. THey have never really got the better of him ever. Yet, Ponting does not give him half the respect he gives Lee. He chose White over Clark.... and White managed only 10 overs. Stupid captaincy, mildly put.
