Righto...back from the holidays...nice break this, hopefully for the team as well. And here's to further hoping that we get in another good performance today.

As per reports, the pitch looks delicious for the pacers, once again. And with Munaf back, for the first time in recent memory, we are going into a game with all 4 bowlers having the potential (and perhaps recent form as well) to win the day single-handedly. Now if that's not exciting....then maybe there's not much that can excite an Indian cricket fan!

So...here's an early open thread....post in your thoughts...and comments during the game. Hopefully Prem would be back here during the game, with his thoughts and posts.
