India vs Australia-2nd Test

[brod]

Agree totally. How have we not learnt how to get reverse swing is beyond me. Maybe we need to send our kids abroad on scholarships. We have been great for years but the world has caught up and if we dont do something soon we will be left behind like the Windies

Peter George: "It would have been nice to take that wicket couple of hundred runs before. I will take it but. It felt great to get one on the board. I am not used to these conditions and crowd. There wasn't much bounce and so we tried other ways to get wickets. We have three wickets in hand and we have runs on the board and try to bowl them out and win the match. There is not much regulation swing here but its reverse swinging

Apparently we have

Those stats tell me that they're all crap then.
How many Top 6 batsman has Hauritz dismissed?

He got Dhoni today. But anyway how many did Warne dismiss? The majority of his wickets would've been tail enders.

Dont know about that. Better ask the Windies, Saffas and Poms but I recall Warney knocking their top order over regularly.

As for Hauritz's two 5 fors, who were they against? A fixed test against the Pakis and another against a Windies team that the Redbacks would probably beat at the moment

Redbacks? Please. Apart from the first test the Windies played some good cricket in Australia last year.

Yeah bit of a stretch

We find out how good Horrorwitz is today. If not bring in the Rookie!

would love the hilf to smak a quick 40

[Lightning McQueen]

johnson bowled khan 11 not offering a shot, 8/217 the lead exactly 200

His batting has really declined over the past 12 or so months, he was bordering on being a genuine all-rounder not so long ago.

[valleys07]

Over 71.2: Khan to Johnson, no run, OUT, fantastic reply! Gets the ball to reverse sharply and Johnson shoulders arms, the ball crashes into middle and off stump. Australia now 8/217.

We are beginning to make a habit of getting bowled shouldering arms......

[valleys07]

Hilfy bowled by sreesanth....9/218

[OnSong]

Great test match. Great series really.

[Interceptor]

India 1/24.

Danger man Sehwag first to go (after Hussey dropped him first)

V Sehwag c †Paine b Hilfenhaus 7 (6b 1x4 0x6) SR: 116.66

1/59 Horrie 1 over for 12

[Dogmatic]

Batsmen have no respect for Hauritz even on a 5th day wicket.

[Swamp Donkey]

and Ponting the dip**** keeps him on What an absolutely disgraceful decision. Until now I have never considered the Aussies to be involved in throwing matches but, when Ponting keeps him on and surprise surprise he goes for another 10 in his second over, what a tool!
It must be so demoralising for the other Aussie bowlers when 5 overs into an innings Ponting brings on Hauritz, presumably because he thinks he is the best man for the job. HAVE A LOOK AT HIS RECENT FIGURES RICKY, THE BLOKES A DUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[stampy]

make that 2 overs for 22 ffs get him and mummys boy off!!!!!!!!!
