I am sorry I don't mean to offend any Akhter fan here, but the guy is throwing the ball. When he is bowling in 135 range, he seems to be acceptable. But as the speed goes up, he starts throwing. Also, he has a long run up and it's funny to see him struggle to finish the run up. I doubted that long run up is really helping him to generate momentum resulting in speed.
Anyway, it was great to see Ganguly hit Gul for a six. Other then that our beloved Ganguly was barely surviving. Although Gambhir sneaked two from Akhter, he looked great. I think our bats are going to do great in the series..
