Prince is in a very poor run of form - he hasn't scored above 20 in his last 7 innings. |
| |
|
|
His last 4 first innings totals have been poor: 0,19,0 and 2. |
| |
|
|
Smith, the stronger batter of the pair has picked up a finger injury... which could well affect his batting. |
|
|
|
Prince and Smith have opened the batting 10 times together, their partnership averages only 12.3 - with the biggest |
| |
being 36. |
| |
|
|
If Smith and Prince get through the new ball, they then have to cope with Harabjhan Singh and Armit Mishra on |
| |
what is expected to be a turning track. |
| |
|
|
Gambhir's and Sehwag's partnerships average 62.34 - including 5 century partnerships - a highest of 233. |
| |
|
|
Sehwag is in form, and scored a century in the 1st test match. |
| |
|
|
Gambhir was awarded the Best Test player in the world for 2009, and will want to keep the form going. |
