Hayden, Ponting put Aussies on top
Melbourne, December 27 Matthew Hayden and Ricky Ponting blazed away to individual centuries as their powerful batting side was only 49 runs behind India’s total of 366, which represented a slump from the overnight score of 329 for four. Left-hand opener Hayden struck a powerful 136 and Ponting was still posing an ominous threat to the visitors remaining unbeaten on 120 with batsmen like Steve Waugh and Simon Katich still to come in. In a pathetic display after their Adelaide heroics, India were bowled out in about an hour’s batting this morning and then their bowlers could not rein in the Australian batting although Justin Langer (14) and Adam Gilchrist (14) fell cheaply. In two days, a total of 683 runs have been made by the two teams which points to a decisive result in the match with three days left and with today’s showing, the Indians were on the backfoot. At stumps, Damien Martyn was giving company to Ponting on seven. After bowling out India in just 13 overs this morning, Australia were off to a cautious start. When Justin Langer (14) was caught at point swishing at widish half volley from Ajit Agarkar, India’s stranglehold on the world champions appeared to continue. But their grip quickly slackened and soon the Australians were running away with Ponting and Hayden determined to make amends for the Adelaide show. Smarting under the criticism that their sheer arrogance led to their batting downfall in the second innings at Adelaide, the home batsmen put their head down and batted with a determination not seen in the series before.

Pak tour: Ganguly scoffs at rumours
Melbourne, December 27 In the backdrop of assassination attempts on President Pervez Musharraf in recent days, at least three senior members of the Indian team currently here are said to be worried about security when the side goes to Pakistan in about two months. Unconfirmed reports said that there was a move by the Indian team to write a letter to the cricket board voicing security concerns. Ganguly, however, denied that there was any talk of players pulling out of the
scheduled tour of Pakistan. "I have also heard such rumours. There is no truth in it," Ganguly told PTI. The Indian captain said the team was more concerned of doing well in the ongoing third Test against Australia than think about the tour, which is more than two months away. "Right now we are busy with the Test. We have not even thought about the issue or the security matter, which is said to concern us." A word spread into the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) this afternoon that Indian players were not keen to tour Pakistan on account of recent bomb blasts in the country. It was also mentioned that the players had discussed the matter inside the dressing room.

Gibbs puts SA on top with century
Durban, December 27 Opening batsman Gibbs thrashed 142 as South Africa reached 303 for three at the close, 39 ahead of the West Indies first innings total of 264. Gibbs and Jacques Kallis (74 not out) punished the West Indies bowlers during a third wicket stand of 168 off 208 balls after posting a century partnership in 82 minutes off only 115 balls. West Indies captain Brian Lara was reduced to setting defensive fields, with as many as five men on the boundary. It was the first innings played by Gibbs since he had to retire hurt with a broken nose after missing a hook against Vasbert Drakes in the second innings of the first Test in Johannesburg 12 days ago. He had to have an operation to reset a nasal bone. "It was the first time I got seriously hurt so it was at the back of my mind," Gibbs admitted. "But I had two good nets before the match and you just need to face one or two bouncers in the middle to put it behind you." Gibbs showed no signs of anxiety or hesitation in his strokeplay and included some meaty pulls as well as exquisitely timed cover drives. Gibbs reached his 11th Test century off 130 balls when he pulled Drakes to the midwicket boundary shortly before tea. He was out after hitting 17 fours in a 175-ball innings when he was bowled off an inside edge trying to pull Adam Sanford. It was Gibbs’ first Test century against the West Indies, although he previously hit six half-centuries in 10 matches against
them. He described it as one of his best innings. Scoreboard West Indies

Among the best
of team efforts After 18 years of international cricket I rate our performance on the second day of this Test match as one of the best team efforts I have ever been involved in. Sitting down prior to play, each player in our locker room knew just how important the day ahead was, and that it was going to take commitment, courage and belief to wrestle back the ascendency from the Indians who certainly took the points on day one. To stem the flow of the Indian batting by taking 6 for 16 in the first session of the day, then for our own batsman to stake a genuine claim for this all-important match, typified just how amazing the past two series between ourselves and India have been. This match, like the 2001 series in India, has fluctuated in fortunes with both sides possessing the balance of power at different stages. Each of these contests has certainly added to the growing cricket rivalry between the two nations and heightened the aura surrounding the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. It has been an intriguing battle and we certainly have a lot of work ahead of us if we are going to win this Test match and level the series ahead of Sydney at one win apiece. To be just 49 runs down heading into day three is a situation we probably didn't anticipate, but the men who have put us in the frame are without doubt Matthew Hayden and Ricky Ponting. When we sit back and scroll through the cricket archives in years to come, we are going to be hard pressed to find many more players who have enjoyed such a remarkable period in the game. From a captain's perspective I have been blessed to have the two of them at my disposal, and as a cricket lover, fortunate to have played in an era when they have both been so dominant on the international scene. Both are up there with Brian Lara and Graeme Smith in the race to score the most Test runs for the calendar year, but knowing the team players that they both are, the pursuit of an individual milestone will be pushed aside to seek victory in this series. Their innings today will hopefully provide us with the momentum to come away victors, just as Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman did for India in Adelaide. As a side we always talk about taking on a challenge. As far as this series goes we certainly have one in front us.

Kolkata, December 27 Set to score 245 for victory, Sri Lanka were cruising at 106 for three, when the complexion of the match changed as the batsmen from the emerald Islands got out to a series of poor shots and were involved in terrible mix-ups resulting in three inexplicable runouts to fold up for 196 in 44.5 overs. Earlier, put into bat by Lankan skipper Russel Arnold, Pakistan reached 244 in 48.3 overs in difficult conditions at the Eden Gardens, thanks to useful knocks from Faisal Iqbal (57) and man-of-the-match Naveed Latif (50). All eyes will now be focused on tomorrow’s last league match between India and Pakistan which is a must-win for the latter for a place in the December 30 title clash. While India are already through to the final, Pakistan moved to seven points, including a bonus from today’s game. Sri Lanka have wrapped up their group league engagements on 10 points. Sri Lanka lost opener S. Jayantha (15) in the eighth over before S. Kalavitigoda (38) and Jehan Mubarrak (15) blended caution with aggression to take the score to 75. Kalavitigoda then needlessly threw away his wicket, trying to lift Bilal Asad and succeeded only in giving a skier to substitute fielder Junaid Zia at mid on.

Mumbai seamers wreck Punjab Chandigarh, December 27 After the defending champions Mumbai extended their first innings to 224, thanks to gritty knock of 81 by allrounder Robin Morris, the hosts batting collapsed against spirited rival seam bowling attack. At close on the penultimate day, top five Punjab batsmen were back in the pavilion as the hosts were tottering at 70 for 5. With Samrat Sharma, the last of the recognised batsmen and wicketkeeper Chandan Madan at the crease, the hosts' hopes of entering the semifinal are as good as over. In fact, Mumbai proved during the match why they have won the championship so many times. They adapted well to the conditions totally alien to them. Even if they were assured of the semifinals berth with their points tally way ahead of others, the champion side showed no complacency. Batting, which had been the strong point of Punjab in the league matches so far, came unstuck in the crucial contest. That the chase would not be easy for Punjab was evident after Mumbai had put 224 on board on the pitch and the conditions which were not ideal for batting. The task became tougher as the hosts did not get off to a reasonable start in the face of disciplined and accurate seam bowling attack of the visitors. Punjab lost the first wicket in the fourth over, when Ravneet Ricky was castled by an Usman Malvi delivery which looked innocuous but beat the batsman all ends up. Malvi struck again in his next over trapping Ankur Kakkar lbw. Swapnil Hazare, the second seamer who was bowling well from the other end, then hastened the batting collapse. Opener Munish Sharma could not capitalise on the reprieve he got when Vinayak Mane stationed at first slip was not agile enough to latch on to a sharp chances off Hazare. He was soon dismissed having been deceived by the same bowler into giving a return catch. The batsman made a paltry 18. Hazare then sent back Reetinder Sodhi and skipper Pankaj Dharmani as Punjab were reduced to 52 for 5. Sodhi lasted only two balls, while a circumspect Dharmani contributed 15. Punjab seamer Gagandeep Singh completed a well-deserved five-wicket haul. Scoreboard Mumbai (1st innings): Extras

BSF, Punjab cops in last 8 Nabha, December 27 The other teams to roll into the last eight were Indian Oversees Bank (IOB) who trounced Corps of Signals 4-1 and Vajra Corps, Jalandhar, who played a scrappy game but managed to subdue CRPF 2-1. BSF and RCF dished out a dull and drab brand of hockey. For BSF, who like Punjab Police were without some of their top players, circumspection was the key word. Combined moves were at a premium and the Jalandhar outfit played like a disjointed unit often going on the defensive. Strikers Christopher Ekka and M.Topno did come up with some good moves but they were thwarted in their designs by RCF custodian Preet Singh. Seconds before half time BSF struck gold when Ekka fed M. Tirkey with a lovely pass on the left flank and the latter’s hard angular shot deflected off M. Topno’s stick to find the netting. The second half too was played at a slow pace with BSF more intend on clinging on to the one goal lead. However, towards the fag end of the match, RCF managed to equalize through C.Shekhar who scored off a goalmouth melee sending the contest into the tie breaker which was won by BSF with a 5-3 margin. Punjab Police started on a brisk note and were three goals up in the first 20 minutes. This initial assault was enough to knock the fight out of the Amritsar XI team and the fourth goal scored by Punjab Police only added to their misery. In other matches IOB played a fluent game to knock out a listless Corps of Signals by a wide 4-1 margin while Vajra Corps notched up an unimpressive 2-1 against CRPF to book a place in the quarter finals. |

Marago, December 27 Dempo’s Stanley Colaco (2) and Sunday Seah (25) neturalised East Bengal Cristiano Junior (1st) and Baichung Bhutia’s early strike in the first half. Dempo’s Nacimento Silveira scored the winner in the 75th minute with a header off R.C. Prakash to seal East Bengal’s fate. The Bengal giants, who had more of the exchanges and scoring opportunities were themselves to be blamed as Bhutia, and Junior Debjit Ghosh failed to cash on the chances that came their way. Luck also did not favour them as Bhutia and Ghosh shot into the woodwork as they pressed hard to find the equaliser in the last quarter of the match. Keeper Abhijit Mondal also gave good performance under the bar to deny East Bengal victory. Dempo are leading the table with 16 points from six matches while East Bengal who lost their second match are on eight points from as many matches. Earlier, Dempo were reduced to 10 men in the 72nd minute when referee Walter Pereira gave marching orders to substitute defender Bolaji for a dangerous foul on Junior. The referee showed yellow cards to Dempo’s Valerian Rebello, Clifford Miranda and East Bengal’s Mahesh Gawli, Cristiano Junior and Baichung Bhutia. CHENNAI: Indian Bank’s poor run continued as they went down 0-2 to Mahindra United in the National Football League match here today. This is the fifth successive home match that Indian Bank have lost. With the win, Mahindra added three points to their tally. For a change, Indian Bank fought tooth and nail, giving the visitors, comprising six international players and two foreign recruits, a hard time. Mahindra went into the lead five minutes before the break with star-striker Venkatesh putting them in the lead. Promising youngster, Abhishek Yadav then showed lot of opportunism in increasing the lead in the dying seconds. At least on all three occasions, Venkatesh (20th, 21st and 25th) showed his class with superb burst of speed but missed the target narrowly. His second try was thwarted by goal keeper Edward Felix and the third following a long volley by Ateven Dias sailed slightly over the post. In the 40th minute, Coven Lawrence worked his way to the left and his long volley was taken by Venkatesh who controlled the ball well before booting it in. The bankmen had a chance of scoring in the 58th but were thwarted by international Chaubey. Following a Syed Sabir Pasha’s cross, Fazlur Rahman took a powerful right footer but Chaubey displayed excellent anticipation in moving to his right to palm it away. Then on, the bankmen saw more of the ball but its defence could not stop Yadav, who latched on to a rebound of Ateven Dias’s shot, which came off Edward Felix.
