Both score rapidly and are exciting to watch, all we need now is to find a quality opener or get more out of Cowan and then with Clarke at 4 and Khawaja at 5 it doesn't look a bad lineup in years to come i think!

What is wrong with Warner 1 and Hughes 2 it frees up room to bring in Khawaja.


is george bailey good enuf to slot in there

Nothing, i just like the balance of having a dasher like Hughes coming in at 3.

Another pup century coming up by the looks of it.

Although I thought the same about Hughes/Warner.


Khawaja to replace hussey at 6 you would think.

Against a very good side. Bet you when they smell Aussie blood and a side which it can threaten, they'll be united again. They're a mixed bag.

Maybe. Although they were thrashed by England. Have now lost a one day series against Pakistan. Their bowling is very average, and their batting is not far behind.

Khawaja to replace hussey at 6 you would think.

:lol: well played.

Re-phrase for the 2nd time today. Premature century calls for Australian batsman.

What was Mark Nicholas saying before about Wade immediately challenging the decision before?

I didn't quite hear it - was he saying he shouldn't have challenged (so quickly)?

IMO that is the only type of DRS that should be used.
Think it took Wade about 1 second to review.
Having conferences before going for the review are a blight on the game

Was watching the early part of the hughes innings (and warners efforts) and if they continue to play like that then cricket will be pretty to watch
