AU 3/40

[mighty hounds]

Marsh oh Marsh. I would rather Hughes

and that's saying something.

Khwaja should have never of been dropped for marsh in the first place!

[Jim05]

Dumb decision by Clarke not to enforce the follow-on. A certain victory now looks like becoming a tame draw.

Sensible decision to bat again.
Some people just dont understand the intricacies of Test cricket.

Not true, we had the foot on the throat, dont let them off.
The bowlers only had short spells, we would have had them a couple down by stumps.
If i was Sehwag i would be cheering that Australia is batting, no way did he want to bat tonight

[mal]

I agree with Jim ...

[dedja]

3/50 at stumps ... 382 ahead

[overloaded]

Sack Warner

[locky801]

If we get knocked over for 100 here, one never knows what might happen

[The Sleeping Giant]

We would still win. If we didn't a 3-1 series win.

[dedja]

If we get knocked over for 100 here, one never knows what might happen

Then India will lose 10 wickets getting nowhere near 430 ...

We will win no matter what, if we bowled again today it just would have meant it would be over on day 4.
By batting again Clarkey is ensuring it goes to Day 5

[mighty_tiger_79]

we had to bat again

it made sense

So in December you wanted to retain a bloke who at that stage had played twice as many tests as Marsh, but had scored less Test runs and whose average was 10 runs below Marsh's (30 v 40). Interesting selection process.

Marsh has wasted this opportunity though, can't see him playing the next test.

Is it just me but are we starting to hand out standing ovations willy nilly, especially in the members area?? WTF giving Tendulkar a standing ovation for a scratchy 25 runs?? I means at 11:30 there was every chance we might have seen him again that afternoon!!

20 years ago you'd barely get a glance over The Advertiser broadsheet if a batsman got out in his 20s in the members.

[dedja]

You're confused I suspect ... the applause was for Johnny Haysman in his gumboots and speedos walking in front of the hill.

Are you saying you don't like the new breed of members?

I blame the newer members that the SACA have let in and also cost them their oval Christ I didn't even stand up for Kohli's hundred

Thats what T20 cricket has done.... f**ked up a good game

Marsh has wasted this opportunity though, can't see him playing the next test.

But in comparison Khawaja had actually performed at first class level to earn the opportunity to play Test cricket. Not sure whose c*ck Marsh has been sucking but what the f*ck has that dud ever done to get the chance to play Test cricket for Australia? The guy is even more useless than his father who people seen to remember fondly for some reason despite the fact that as a test cricketer he was no f*cking good.

Just for mal's sake, here i am and i believe that my long held feelings on Marsh as a Test cricketer have well and truly been justified now. If he can dominate at first class level then sure give him another go but his current record suggests that he simply is not good enough to do anything but slog in some hybrid form of the game that no-one gives a sh*t about.
