I agree with you totally ( for a change ) .... I just want to watch 40 overs of swinging fortunes with the winner only being decided at the last ball of the 40th over . Gives me ample time to fill up Mallya's pockets ( hes emptied it quiet a bit in F1 ) --

Ive got the beers chilling out .... last match saw 18 pints go down -- I hope today sees 24 of them go down

!!

As for the match .. I have a feeling they gonna go in with the same team and Jogi baba will again get a chance to prove his selection . Yuvi needs to middle the ball the way he did in the last 2 matches that he played , Sehwag again needs to bat the way he did against the Pakis in the earlier match , fielding needs to stay as tight as it has been , Bhajji , Sreesanth , RP & Pathan need to keep it tight . Sreesanth shud keep his excitement in check .... !

All in all .... I hope the entire country is jumping up and down at 8.30 pm --- Bring it HOME boyzzz !!!

I dont think i will mind that at all! For once i will be doing some real work!

Besides, i can then go around hitting people and shouting "Respect my authoritaa" , just like Cartman in South Park.

By the way, any chances of rain in Jo'burg today?

Weather Forecast: All spectators at the ground are expected to come dressed in protective headgear. It surely is going to rain today, 4s and 6s that is.

And I hope the men in Blue end up hitting more of those
