Back to the front

When Laxman smashed the Australian attack for 167 in Sydney, it was deemed a fluke. Laxman went back to the drawing board and, to his tensile wrists and all-round strokeplay, added a steely determination to bat on and on and on, every chance he got. Kasprowicz here suffers at the hands of the silent assasin who could do no wrong.

India 2nd innings.
