Be in the mire

My car <u><em>broke down</em></u> on way to the railway station.

To save one's face

To pour oil in troubled water

The cricket match proved to be a <u><em>big draw</em></u>.

To go to each other hammer and tongs

To throw dust in one's eyes

To be rolling in money

We have to <u><em>keep our fingers crossed</em></u> till the final result is declared.
