A bowling line up comprising of Russel,Roach,Rampaul,Sammy and Sunil Narine with back up from Marlon Samuels.On paper, this looks like the best bowling combination in ODIs.The indian team not having Tendulkar will be in for a good contest.Though India nearly lost a Test,they were clearly favourites in that series.I am not quite sure for this one.
Earlier today, my driver asked when the next match was.I only knew about the Brisbane Test and not about the Cuttack ODI.We were in class I in 1971.The first one day match between two tests had taken place some time during the Winter Break.None of us knew anything about it though there were a few who had heard about the Test series in Australia.One day Cricket keeps coming in and out of consciousness while Test matches remain.1971 turned out to be a glorious year for India in Tests though it was only from the winter vacation of 1972-73,that I started following Test Cricket ball by ball.
