Bookie- How is the pitch. Cronje- Ya dry and good for batting. Bookie- I want u to loose today's match. Cronje- Impossible. Bookie- Will pay u $200,000. Cronje- Will be difficult to make India win. Bookie- I will pay u $250,000. Cronje- May be I could help you by reducing the margin... you tell by what margin we should win... will be much more easier. Bookie- No India should win. Cronje- OK. I will try my best. Bookie- No make it. Cronje- OK. Bookie- What will be the score. Cronje- 300, if we bat first. Bookie- No make it 220. Cronje- Impossible. Agarkar and Joshi are playing.

They run one when they could run three, defend full toss,get out on wide balls, all catches and shots...I mean, if there is any exactly directed to the fielders. But I will tell you this, Indians are too good at this, I tried re-arranging the field...but they never miss a fielder. Bookie- Still you could bowl more no-balls. We got only 63 extras.
