4th Test - Australia v India

[locky801]

97,723 for the test only 11,000 today just heard they only basically catered for 65 thousand, well done to the Adelaide/ S.A. cricket fans

oh dear Hoggs back, get Singh caught by Ponting taking an overhead screamer 7/264 wasnt a real great ball either

[Dogwatcher]

much maligned Hogg gets a wicket.

[hearts on fire]

Hogg can only get wickets off the tailenders or off a batsmen that is going for the slog. Good on him, but I don't think it should change the selectors minds, he still gotta go.

gone done and dusted Symonds turning the ball three times more than Hogg

[hearts on fire]

Looks like Australia might get a little bit of a bat, Gilchrist should open.....

if they do open Gilly and Symonds with instructions it s at 20/20

[hearts on fire]

Hayden and Gilchrist should open, Ponting first drop, then Symonds, or maybe even bat Symonds at 3.

[locky801]

Probably wont happen if we knock them over they will probably shake hands and say thats all folks

[hearts on fire]

This should be the line-up for the last innings off the Adelaide Oval Test:

1. Gilchrist
2. Hayden
3. Ponting
4. Symonds
5. Clarke
6. Jaques
7. Hussey
8. Hogg
9. Lee
10. Johnson
11. Clark

[Dogwatcher]

If the fairytale of Australia being able to have a crack at a Twenty/20 type win, Ponting's injury would probably preclude him from going the tonk. He won't be able to force the pace.

[hearts on fire]

Probably wont happen if we knock them over they will probably shake hands and say thats all folks

Hopefully not, I want to see Gilly bat one last time on the Test arena.....

[hearts on fire]

4 more overs are required and then they can call it quits

[locky801]

should give Gilly the honour of the last over, know it wont happen though

[hearts on fire]

OHH MY GOD!!!!! HOGG BOWLED A MAIDEN!!!!!

[locky801]

Why do we have 90 overs per day in test cricket and today we only have to have 75

[hearts on fire]

ITS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
GOODBYE GILLY!
I LOVE YOU!

[locky801]

Now India have declared, going by the rules there is still 15 overs to be bowled, has me very perplexed, what we change the rules from game to game, if I was Ponting I would have said to Kumble stuff it we are going to have a bat for 13 overs

[locky801]

Can't believe it that exit bought a huge huge tear to the eyes from Gilly

[hearts on fire]

very sad to see him go, but, its the right time and that was great how every single person at the Adelaide Oval, players, spectators,officials, etc, gave him a great send off he deserved, what a true champion.
