iasbet.com.au – First Test in Bangalore

Posted by admin @ 12:00 AM, Wednesday Oct 15th, 2008

IASBet - The first test in Bangalore has ended in a draw after Australian skipper Ricky Ponting set the home side a virtually unreachable target of 299 on the last day of play.

On what was considered a sub par batting pitch, Ponting declared late on Sunday giving his side the chance to bowl for a full day against India.

However the the visitors never looked like taking the required ten wickets for victory with the home side rounding out the days play on 4 for a miserly 177.

In what has already been a fiery war of words, Ponting was quick to respond to Verender Sehwag’s earlier comments that Australia were cheats and claimed catches that did not in fact carry.

A frustrated Ponting accused India of not playing in the spirit of the game, more than happy to bat out a stalemate much to the disappointment of the thousands of fans who flocked to Bangalore Stadium for the final days play.

Sechin Tendulkar and V.V.S Laxman stood firm at the crease ensuring that there would be no fairy tale win for the Aussies.

The post match sledging was not all one-way however.

You could be forgiven for thinking that man of the match Zaheer Kahn had actually won the first test.

He offered little respect to an Australian bowling outfit that failed to fire on a pitch that should have made things very difficult for the Indian Batsmen.

He believes that the inability to win the test on the final day highlights weaknesses in the Australian bowling attack – in particular the spinners.

However, leg-spinner Cameron White, who was a late inclusion in the Australian side, celebrated his first ever test wicket with the prized scalp of Sechin Tendulkar, believed by many to be one of the greatest batsmen of all time.

In a race where Holdens were the more fancied option, Lowndes and Wincup navigated their way from fifth to first very early in the piece and never looked back.
Holden Commodore did however sneak home for a hard faught second place to Greg Murphy and Jason Richards.

After a horror start for commodore that saw two cars involved in a collision on lap one, the Ford pairing surged to the front and it was all the rest of the field could do to finish the gruelling race.
Veteran racer Lowndes praised his co-driver Whincup referring to him as a ‘whizz kid’ as they accepted the trophy.

The champagne following one of the least controversial Bathurst 1000’s in recent history.
Aside from the incident on the first lap, nearly 200,000 fans were treated to a nearly clinical display of endurance driving from the best drivers in the country.

The only real incident that marred a near perfect day for event organisers was what looked like a minor incident in which Paul Radisich actually broke both his ankles.

He was treated at the scene of the warm up crash before being taken to hospital for treatment.
In a golden patch for Ford that according to fans has been ‘long overdue’, they now move to a commanding lead in the overall ranking despite solid years from the likes of Murphy, Richards and Kelly.
