Back to the front


How do you tell the story of his innings? Take all that was said yesterday, then double it -- and you haven't come close. He has now given McGrath, who was in his own words targetting Tendulkar and Ganguly, a gentle hint that those arrows were a bit off the mark. But then, McGrath can be forgiven for not having considered Laxman, till yesterday -- unlike the 'Big Three', 'Fab Four' and other groupings that the sponsors, hypemeisters and indeed all of us have created, Laxman is quiet, subdued, self-effacing, silent -- and deadly!
