To everyones surprise Pakistan continued to bat and piled on the runs till Abdul Razzaq got out to Kumble caught by Yuvraj Singh.
They ended their innings just one short of 600, declaring at 599 for 7, it looked like Inzi was in command from the dressing room as he seemed very active when the decision was made. The Indians came to bat with only 9 odd overs to play till lunch, but the new ball did the trick for the Pakistan with Shoaib akhtar getting Rahul Dravid caught behind in his first over. Asif's next over was excellent and the ball was seaming once again in the overcast conditions at Karachi. Sehwag was cleaned bowled by Asif's Inswinger with no feet movement from Sehwags part. Laxman and Sachin stabled the situation a bit by scoring freely and Tendulkar playing the booming off-drives like before. The sore quickly raced to 48 in nine overs when lunch was called. We only have to wait and watch if India can weather the storm against this Pakistan pace attack and save themselves some ambarassment.
