lahore: pakistan 679/7, and india, unbelievably, 403 without loss! sehwag 247, dravid 128. what on earth is happening to subcontinental cricket? i wish i could have watched it...sehwag and dravid making 403 in 75 overs is a thought that sets the mouth watering, and i really wish i could have watched the artist formerly known as yousuf youhana, who made 173. i'm glad to say that as far as cricket goes i'm slowly shedding any vestiges of patriotism (though not, i have to confess, a certain third-worldism), and i'm thoroughly hedonistic, just want my favourite batsmen to make lots of runs. which they did, inzy apart. but who the hell prepares pitches like this??? part of me wants the last day to be full of runs, and another part of me desperately wishes for the return of doctored pitches so that we can have a result. most of me, however, has given in to base commodity fetishism, and wishes i had a tv to watch and wag fingers at and reprimand when the game gets dull. on that note, good night.
