Back to the front


A brutal spell of quick bowling that Jason Gillespie produced today deserves special mention. One ball in particular stands out in memory -- an off break bowled at 148.2 kmph, easily the fastest ball bowled on this tour, that darted back in at speed to bang a well-set Rahul Dravid in the box and double him up. It was a display of fast bowling, on a track not really suited for it, that merits the highest praise.
