presentations from Mr Smooth himself, Ravi Shastri
Ranatunga: "they batted really well... we should it would move early.... fielding was not too good today... we need to try our best for the next game"
Azhar greeted by cheers: "... every game is important from now on... "
blow me down with a feather, Ganguly is the man of the match: "there's always something in the wickets early on... fancied my chances later on [against the spinners]... we have a very good chance [of beating England]"
