91.3 to Nayar, short delivery and Nayar ducks but leaves the bat in the air, the ball takes the back of the bat and lobs up in the air, Karthik moves to his right and takes the catch. Sreesanth is excited. 303/5

129.4 to Pawar, short delivery and that surprises Pawar and he plays awkwardly and gets an edge high in the air and Dravid takes the catch above his head. 424/8

16.2 to Patel, Ashwin strikes for South Zone. Tossed up on the middle and leg and Parthiv comes forward and plays down the wrong line, strikes the pad in line with the off and middle stump, loud appeal and umpire Erasmus nods in the favour of the bowler. 55/1

47.1 to Pujara, Ashwin strikes, picks up his second wicket. A quicker delivery and Pujara on the back foot plays down the wrong line, the ball hits the back pad and a loud appeal, given by umpire Saheba. 163/3

120.3 to Rahane, spins in sharply from outside the off stump and Rahane on the back foot gets hit on the pad, loud appeal and given by umpire Erasmus. Finally Rahane falls to Ashwin. 397/7

141.4 to Jadhav, West Zone finish on 459, goes for the big slog sweep and gets a top edge, the ball lobs up to the onside and Karthik takes the catch. 459/10

36.2 to Jaffer, tossed up straight and going on, Jaffer misjudges the line of the delivery and lets it go, the ball uproots the off stump. 132/2

112.6 to Trivedi, finally Jakati picks up the wicket on day 2. Flat delivery on the middle stump and straightens, strikes the pad in line with off and middle, loud appeal and umpire Erasmus lifts the finger. Trivedi's vigil ends. 360/6

54.3 to Karthik, loose shot by Karthik, Trivedi angles it wide of the offstump and lures Karthik forward, he's tempted to chase that and the ball travels off the face of the bat to Jaffer at wide first slip, good field placement there 133/5

13.2 to Vijay, caught †Patel 28/1

32.6 to Dravid, tossed up full and bit wide outside the off stump and Dravid stretches, goes after it and gets the edge to Jadhav at gully. 92/3

73.2 to Vinay Kumar, South are bowled out just minutes away from lunch, he bowls it on the line of the off stump and draws Vinay forward, the outside edge falls safely in to Jaffer's hands at first slip 199/10

23.3 to Uthappa, Powar strikes for South Zone, Uthappa looking to come down the track yorks himself, the stumps are uprooted. 71/2

59.3 to Yadav, pushes it a little quicker through the air, Yadav shapes to flick it away behind square on the on side but he finds Kedar Jadhav at forward short-leg who takes a sharp catch 148/6

59.6 to Ashwin, he flights it on the off stump and gets a bit of turn, the bat's slightly behind the pad as he shapes to defend, the ball appears to clip his pad before lobbing to silly point, Erasmus gives him out caught but Ashwin hangs around at the crease before walking, I need to see another replay of that 148/7

70.2 to Jakati, Nayar strikes early in his spell, the ball lands wide outside off and Jakati is tempted in to chasing it, he tamely glides it to second slip, what Jakati probably failed to see was the packed slip cordon, West are bowling to a plan here 191/8

8.1 to Jaffer, Sreesanth strikes, the ball pitches on middle and leg and rises a bit, Jaffer's beaten for pace and the ball hits him a little high on the pad and slightly wide of the leg stump, Erasmus gives him out, not too sure if that would have hit the stumps but another replay will help 35/1

52.2 to Thaker, gone!! Wicket at the death! Full outside off stump and a hint of away movement, Thaker goes for the drive, gets a thick outside edge and Dravid snaps it easily at first slip 228/4

63.3 to Jadhav, wicked bounce for Ashwin, that gets the wicket, pitching just short of a length, Jadhav gets on the backfoot to defend, but that jumps shoulder high, and he can only glove it to Rahul Dravid at first slip 274/5

88.1 to Patel, Parthiv's gone this time, he was looking to clear the fielder at mid-on but he hits it straight to Robin Uthappa, again he was looking to slam the ball against the turn, pays the price this time as it hits the toe end of the bat 383/7

31.4 to Patel, length ball outside off, Parthiv comes down the track and punches it to mid-off 145/2

70.1 to Nayar, Nayar's gone, he was looking to reach his half-century with a six over long-on, he has pulled off that shot successively a couple of times but this time it goes straight down the throat of Badrinath at the short midwicket as he doesn't get the elevation he wanted 298/6

40.2 to Pujara, tame dismissal there, M Suresh finally strikes, tossed up outside off stump, seemingly harmless delivery, takes it on the full and just pushes it back to the bowler. A lazy drive there, he could have hit that anywhere 182/2

89.5 to Powar, no patience from Powar, soft dismissal really, he charged down the track, didn't quite make the pitch of the ball, his attempt to find the long-off boundary ends up in a swirling catch for Vijay at point 396/8

43.2 to Rahane, Tragedy! Bowled flat outside leg stump, no spin there, Rahane tries to work it away fine, gets a thin edge to the keeper who goes up straightaway. 196/3

36.5 to Uthappa, Uthappa's gone! he tries to launch the ball over long-off, but he doesn't quite get hold of it, and it ends up as a simple catch for Siddharth Trivedi at mid-off 167/2

62.2 to Badrinath, finally the patience gives in, Badri steps out, looking to hit it from outside leg and over the top, he gets the elevation but is cramped for room. Powar takes a good catch at long-on boundary, keeping his balances inches inside the fence. So it's caught Powar b Pawar 288/4

35.2 to Vijay, Vijay's gone, the breakthrough West have been searching for, the ball doesn't turn as much as the others, and Vijay's attempted push towards the offside gets a nick through to the keeper 165/1

37.4 to Dravid, Dravid's gone! that one was an absolute shooter, that didn't rise more than a few inches off the ground, Dravid was looking to defend it off the backfoot, but that scooted under his bat to rock middle and off stumps 167/3

69.3 to Yadav, the ploy works this time! Powar was plugging away at the line outside the off stump. Yadav, with no movement of his feet ends up lofting a tame catch to Pawar, who has to move to his left to take the catch at mid-off 312/5

71.5 to Karthik, thats the wicket they have been waiting for! Karthik gets his frontfoot across and wants to look the ball right into the hands of the keeper but in the bargain the right pad hits the stumps and he is out hitwicket. This wicket will certainly feature in Cricinfo XI in years to come 319/6

93.6 to Suresh, bowled! Powar pushes a quicker delivery on the off stump and Suresh looking for the late cut, misses it and the stumps are uprooted. 377/7

99.1 to Jakati, lbw! Powar picks up his sixth wicket, pitches it outside the off stump and straightens to strike the pad in line with the off stump, loud appeal and given by umpire Saheba. 399/8

99.6 to Sreesanth, goes for the big slog and mishits it high in the air to square leg and Rahane calls for it and settles under the ball to take the catch. Powar picks up his 7th wicket and the 10th of the match. 403/9
