Australia/India/Sri Lanka ODI Series

Warner vc but not captain this game? Interesting!

ODI Squad for the next two matches:

Michael Clarke (Captain)
Ricky Ponting (Captain for Friday’s ODI vs Sri Lanka)
David Warner (vc)
Dan Christian
Xavier Doherty
Peter Forrest
Ben Hilfenhaus
David Hussey
Michael Hussey
Brett Lee
Mitchell Marsh
Clint McKay
Mitchell Starc
Matthew Wade

[Dutchy]

Why appoint Warner the vice captain when he cant/wont captain in Clarke's absence??????

[Jim05]

Mitchell Marsh will miss at least 6 months after scans revealed stress fractures in his back

[Media Park]

So Watson is back, and Ponting is gone. How does this affect the make-up of the team? Wade/Watson/Warner all openers in a sense.
Still a handy top seven:
Watson
Warner
Clarke
M Hussey
Wade
D Hussey
Christian

With Hilfenhaus kicking the door down on his ODI return, how do the remainder of the bowlers line-up, after Starc's omission:

McKay
Lee
Hilfenhaus
Doherty

Did Watson do enough to earn a recall? IMO he didnt.

He has in the past 2 years, I'm not much of a fan but gee whiz has he come a long way.

Fully fit is almost the first player picked but has not had alot of cricket this summer.

You wouldn't bring Ablett through the magoo's to prove his talent. I guess they see that he got through a shield match so he's ready to go, Harris got through a T20 and got a test recall.

sri lanka to get bowled out for 150 now

[Jim05]

3/157(33)

[Johno6]

Ravi Ashwin has gone for the man-kat here and he may have his man! Chandimal was backing up a long way and seems out of his crease. Umpire Reiffel talks to his partner, they call over Sehwag and it seems the appeal has been withdrawn!

wtf is a man-kat?

is it when u fake bowl the ball and try run the non striker out?

[Jim05]

The Mankad should be allowed.
Blatant cheating by the batsman, some of these guys get a metre or more head start.
