2nd Test - Australia v India

[mal]

Ive lost my enthusiam for this game.
India keep selecting 2 spinners in Australia [when will they learn]
Australia win another toss and bat first.
The umpires have ****** up a potentially great game.
Sharma a 19 year old got Symonds out for 30 odd, and then went wicketless[another career ruined by umps ?}

The only reason I am watching is because I want the loud mouthed Indians to get walloped.

Jaffer clean bowled by a terrific Lee yorker

India 1/8

time for a "Brett Lee Apology Thread"

[Pup]

Unforgiveable

Dravid caught at slip of another no ball.

Massive no ball at that.

Dravid is just starting to get in the groove, maybe this will be the help he needs.

Laxman is such a frustrating cricketer. Has all the talent in the world and in full flight (as he is now) looks as good as any player you will see. Why can't he be even a little more consistent?

[Pup]

Some brilliant batting at the moment. If you are not near a TV get to one if you can.

Unbelievable batsmen but god they are terrible between the wickets.

Exactly must be so frustating.

How brilliant is he looking at the moment.

Laxman in form is as good as it gets as he is currently showing.

Now let me guess
LAXMAN is batting on a flat track
Thats the secret ROD
he plays unbelievable innings on flat tracks
Any give in the pitch, any bounce and he is generally piss weak.
SCG/ADELAIDE OVAL speciallist in this country

Lets see how good he is in Perth next test

There is bounce in the SCG track today mal but i can't argue with you much there.

Actually, I think part of the problem is he gets shunted out of the team too quickly. Remember, he's looking for a middle order spot where Dravid, Tendulkar and Ganguly have been dominant for so long. If he ever fails a couple of times in a row, they seem to bring in some young punk to give him a go.

Just for Shiek Yerobuti:

Healy would've caught it

[Pup]

Laxman dropped by Gilchrist.

Very Very tough chance a fair way down the leg side. More of a half chance IMO.

[Pup]

Laxman 50*

Needs to go on with it.

[rod_rooster]

Just 43 balls for his 50 including 10 boundaries.

India 1/76

[Pup]

Symonds is such a brilliant athlete. That piece of fielding was superb.

[Pup]

Gilly has just put down a chance IMO. A simple one of the bowling of Clark.

Dravid the batsmen.

[rod_rooster]

Just for Shiek Yerobuti:

Healy would've caught it

and Healy definitely would've caught that last sitter.

And that one.

Should have taken that one.

Laxman was the batsmen.

[blink]

It's about time Dravid got a run! Moves to 19* from 98 balls....

[Pup]

Haha good to see he still has a sense of humour having a chuckle and raising the bat to the crowd.
