Andy Flower's innings was pure magic with all the usual ingredients, sweep, cut and reverse sweep. He has a strong liking for Indian bowling as he went about accumulating runs with nonchalant ease. His innings came to an end soon after the tea break when Ramesh took a good diving catch at gully. Andy Flower should be rated as one of the very best batsmen in the world; he has reached the score of 50 in nine out of the last ten Test innings.
