First ODI - India win it, but Pakis lose it

#

The first one dayer between India and Pakistan was more of a Paki loss than an India win. First of all, they dropped an easy catch and gave Sehwag a life on the first ball of the match. And then, they collapsed inexplicably.

Sachin showed that he is no ‘occassional’ bowler by picking up a 5-fer.

And sadly, as usual, Dravid did not get a man of the match award because Sehwag probably had a more flamboyant innings. I think Dravid deserved it more than Sehwag did. But the commentators (the adjudicators) thought otherwise.
