Despite a flat batting track, what would have been the reason why dravid played so slow (purposely blocking most of the balls) in the first test match ? I was watching the match and could not figure it out. Can anyone please reply with a reason ? Thanks.

The flat batting track and Dravid's tactics were very much evident after Dravid's departure. He was the 5th man down, and it took maybe less than an hour after that for the Indian team to fold up within 60 runs. Got the answer? Thanks.

Shoaib Akhtar is Making Lot of Statements About Match Fixing, I was Watching Zee News and Star News, Shoaib Akhtar in an interview with Pakistani Channel Geo TV has Said that he was Offered a Lot of Money for Match Fixing.
He Said than When Pakistan Toured South Africa and India a Lot of Offer was Made By Bookies and "Some of His Pakistani Team Mates".According to Him, Some"South African, Australian and Indian Player's" are Involved in this Match Fixing.In "South Africa's Johannesburg" "Some Pakistani Player's Came With a BriefCase Telling him to Bowl Poorly".
In the Recent "Indian Series" Also He was Offered Money to Bowl Badly, And He Says" Some Indian Players are Also Involved".
He Has Allegdly Slapped Inzamam-ul-Haq, Moin Khan, Mustaque Ahmed and Shahid Afridi for they Brought Offers of Match Fixing To Him, And Told Him to Bowl Poorly and Give Runs to Opposition Batsman, So they Told Him to UnderPerform and Fix the Match By Bowling Badly.
DRAVID record of 10000 runs is better than that of SACHIN in ODI. bcoz sachin opens the innings in odi whereas dravid comes lower down the order, so sachin gets more chance to score whereas dravid at times can not get time even to settle still he has scored 10000 runs. gr8 achievement.

merit. A good one. Yuvi's last how many test innings produced how many runs at what average? compute that and you will not need to make stateless statements at all.
