Live Cricket from Adelaide (Day 5): Sehwag scores Century

The Adelaide test is heading for an exciting finish, as Australia grabbed 2 wickets in the morning, besides sending Rahul Dravid retired hurt. Sachin Tendulkar was run out for 13, while Ganguly fell to a stunning catch by Hussey. Interestingly, umpires referred the catch to third umpire, who ruled Ganguly out. It was a good decision.

Virender Sehwag found his rhythm back in this test. After scoring 63 in the first innings, Sehwag scored a century in the second innings. Sehwag was on fire, as he scored boundaries and sixes. India were 166/3 when reports last came in. Sehwag was batting on 115. It would be interesting if Australia can pick up a couple of Indian wickets at this stage. That would lead to an exciting finish at Adelaide.

India lost Laxman. Laxman out for 12. India 190/4. Dravid is out of action for two weeks. Since Dravid and RP won't bat, Australia needs only 4 wickets to press for a win. Can they do it?

It's boring. Match is heading for a draw. Not twists in the tale.

Dhoni out for 20. What a catch taken by Hayden! He took it in one hand. India 237/5. Sehwag still bats on.

Sehwag out for 151. India 263/6. Gilchrist took the catch. Is it his latch catch of the test career?

One more wicket falls. HArbhajan out. India 264/7. Last pair in the middle. Is Australia smelling something?

Match drawn. The captains decided to stop the game, as no result was possible. India finished at 269/7. Australia won the series 2-1.
