        During an interview on B'bay TV, Sunil Gavaskar was asked whether
     he thought that the victory (85' B& H) was a fluke. (The interview 
     was conducted in the B'bay Int Airport soon after the players returned 
     from Oz). Sunil said that what with all the sequels coming in from 
     Hollywood, like, Rocky1, 2, 3 and Jaws 1,2..., the WC was fluke1, the
     Sharjah thing was fluke 2, and the B&H was fluke 3! 
     Even the humour impaired would have noticed that the remark was 
     made in jest, especially to spite the detractors/doubters!

    ...and we beat the Windies in the Windies comprehensively just before
   the world cup. Sunil got 90 and Kapil got 72*. We scored 282-5 in
   Berbice. Who else has achieved that feat against  *that* WI team?

Forgive my parochialism, but Chatfield was the perfect foil for Hadlee.
His consistent tight line and length kept the batsman under a great 
deal of pressure, allowing Hadlee to weave his potent magic from the 
other end.  I have always been a believer that a good bowler will be even 
more dangerous with a good partner, and as a partnership Hadlee and 
Chatfield did a fantastic job for New Zealand.  This is not to take 
anything away from Marshall, Garner, Holding and company, who were all
devastating bowlers in their own right.

Keywords: South Africa, Transvaal Benson & Hedges
Date: 16 Oct 92 20:43:53 GMT
Article-I.D.: news.Bw8Ex6.4w6
Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana

I received the following from South Africa:

On Wed night Oct 14, Tvl played NTvl in a Benson & Hedges match at 
Centurion Park. Tvl won the toss and elected to bat. Cook and
Yachad put on a first wicket partnership of about 146, and from then on
the wickets fell quite regularly, but the scoring was relatively quick.
In the end, the score was 225 for 7. NTvl started out quite well, with
a first wicket partnership of around 40, made relatively quickly, but
then the wickets started to tumble, and no-one managed to get going. The
run rate soon fell to below three an over, and after the allotted 45 overs,
they'd only managed about 160. Man of the match went to Eksteen, who took
3 wickets for less than 20 runs in his 9 overs. Every Transvaal bowler
managed to get at least one wicket, Snell's coming in the final over.
Neither Jack nor Snell has looked particularly impressive with the ball
so far this season, although Snell is now considered something of an
allrounder, coming in at no. 6. Eksteen, however, has been very impressive.
It looks like Pienaar might do a bit of bowling this season, possibly in
an attempt to make himself more attractive to the selectors. Rindel is
now considered as an allrounder, and bowled a full 9 overs last night, not
too badly. On Friday, Tvl play Natal in a B&H game at the Wanderers - it
should be interesting to see the crowd's reaction to Rice returning to the
Wanderers for the opposing team!

So Hadlee owes his wickets to Chatfield?   This is my last word on these so
called bowling partnerships.  Why is it that one-bowler teams never put
together a solid string of performances at test level, even when the one bowler
in question is returning very impressive figures?

Because if the sole bowler does not take any wickets, none are going to fall. 
Therefore he will always pick up a 5-wicket haul more often than not.  If
Marshall missed the openers, they were going to fall to Holding or Garner or
whoever else was there.   It is instructive to note that some of Marshall's
most destructive performances came when the pace quartet was in transition,
i.e. when the competition was less fierce.  His wicket haul tailed off again
once he had to compete with Ambrose and the unfortunate Bishop for wickets.

He can hold his head high as a mediocre bowler who had the privelege of bowling
opposite a great bowler.

 Strange that Kuruvilla and Venkatesh Prasad were selected ahead of Ankola

  I was surprised to learn that he is 24 years old (courtesy OCT 2 Indian
Express that I have).  It seems there was a lobby for including him for the
Australian tour last year. Had a hand in 6 ROI dismissals (Irani CUP) and also
made 201 in Duleep semi-finals last year.

Digression : 

That Indian Express carried a report on Magic's return to the LA Lakers team. 
Is it becos of the STAR TV?

There was also a report on Geet Sethi's stupendous break of 1276 (a world 
record) in the pro billiards World championship. Think he won it.

That's correct ! Majid Khan came close to hitting six sixes in an over. He hit
five sixes off the first five balls of an over, and then was deprived of the 
sixth by a very low delivery that bounced a few times before it reached the 
batsman. I think that Majid actually held the record for most sixes in an over 
before Sobers broke it. Also if my memory serves me well, I think that Majid 
hit his sixes off Malcolm Nash as well, the same bowler who had the misfortune 
of being hit for six sixes by Sir Gary Sobers.

 The Indian team to tour SA/ZIM was declared late last night(10/01,IST).
 According to BBC, the following is the composition of the 16 member team
 led by Md. Azharuddin:
 
 
 Ravi Shastri (V.C.)
 WV Raman
 Ajay Jadeja
 Md. Azharuddin (Capt.)
 Sanjay Manjrekar
 Sachin Tendulkar
 Praveen Amre
 Kiran More(W/K)
 Vijay Yadav
 Kapil Deo
 J Srinath
 Manoj Prabhakar
 Chetan Sharma
 Subroto Banerjee
 Anil Kumble
 Venkatpathy Raju
 
 
 Those who do not find a place from the team that last toured Aus are
 Srikanth, Sidhu, Kambli and S.Ganguly.
 Vijay Yadav, I believe, is the other W/K; am not very sure.
 
 GOOD LUCK to the Indian team....
