Australia v Sri Lanka - 2nd Test - MCG Boxing Day

[Jim05]

Ruled out of the New Years test. Do they pick a batsman or an all rounder

Might push MJ up a spot and bring in Starc.
Hussey or Clarke will have to move up

That would be ok vs the lankins but I'm not a fan leading into the ashes. Wade at 6 means a long tail.
I would not be surprised if Henriques makes his debut. Averaging 80 with the bat and 17 with the ball this season

Henriques has an on going knee problem which is why he is hardly bowling with the sixers

Say hello to my little friend Uzi almost certainly will come in and do very well I would think. As long as that's alright with Bo-tox Warne and he or some Victorian mate of his doesn't warrant a start in his opinion. I actually heard Chris Rogers name thrown around for England on the ABC.
FFS pick a cricketer with a technique. Seems like a level headed kid as well. Give him a go

[whufc]

Down the track I reckon Nathan Coulter-Nile will be a great replacement for Watson. At the moment though his batting isn't the greatest and he would bat behind Johnson.

For the Sydney test I think they would bring in Khawaja and expect to get overs out of Warner and Clarke on a pitch that may help the spinners

[Coach Bombay]

Well if they want to knock out their changerooms maybe they should play Christian. Free labour.

Hearing Ben Cutting's name alot perhaps he is a chance, pretty handy with the bat but not sure how he has been going this season

I really like Cutting but like NC-N his definatly a bowling all rounder (bats around 7-8 for QLD) and wouldn't bat ahead of Johnson. If the SCG is a turner there is no real need for an all rounder with Warner and Clarke in the side

[Johno6]

Terrible shot Lyon
Johnson will bat like a T20 now I reckon

I like Cutting too but i have my worries about whether his bowling will have the impact at test level (Similar to Hastings).

What a shot..

God i hope not

[stampy]

whats wrong with these ******* umpires? blind freddy could see that bird was well in ffs

[Johno6]

When the bat is near the stumps he's in by that far and they call for third umpire is a disgrace
They are too worried about getting calls wrong

[RustyCage]

Lead by 304 at the completion of the first innings

[RustyCage]

A run out in the first over

[RustyCage]

[dedja]

[Jim05]

[RustyCage]
