Dravid and Yuvraj put the chase back on track
India’s biggest reason of hope now was Rahul Dravid’s monk-like presence at the crease. He was joined by the youthful energy of Yuvraj Singh and together, the duo went about repairing the innings. Yuvraj Singh’s pristine strokeplay meant that even though they were looking to limit any further damage, the run rate still never came down.
They added 68 for the 5th wicket off only 64 deliveries, of which Yuvraj Singh made a stroke-filled 36 off 35 balls with five fours, before becoming Mohammad Sami’s second victim of the night.
His dismissal brought Mohammad Kaif to the wicket with a well-set Dravid at the other end and the target still 132 runs away.
