[dedja]

beer time ... Must be half past then.

[mal]

I was impressed the first time I saw James Pattinson bat at Test Level
This Test is a reaffirmation of those thoughts
JP has made in this Test
55 runs
135 balls
not out twice

His bowling in the first innings was impressive
2/55 [23]

I think he is the best of the tailend batters
I would be batting this
PATTINSON
SIDDLE
HILF
LYON

[mal]

Must get Sehwag early ... Just a suggestion, maybe not drop him 5 times this time

[mighty_tiger_79]

pattinson is the all-rounder we need

no need for watto now

[Johno6]

I agree with mal on that batting line up
Game could be decided by the new ball
Must get early wickets with it..... Obviously

[dedja]

derrrr ...

[Dirko]

Seems as if Watto & Mitch were the faces of every ******* cricket ad on TV, and they're the ones not playing

It didnt suprise me when they said Patto used to open in school sides. He has a natural technique and just looks better than most tail enders. We cant keep relying on these guys to post decent scores all the time though

Always a need for Watto, fantastic cricketer

[mighty_tiger_79]

watto does the ads to keep Mal happy

[Johno6]

derrrr ...

Haha. Just stating the obvious

Aus need to take 10 wickets to win

[mighty_tiger_79]

india need a total 292 to win

[Johno6]

If aus don't take 10 wickets and India don't make 292 it will be a draw

[mighty_tiger_79]

if india last to the end of day 5 on 291

it will be a tie

[Jim05]

Come on Clarkey give Patto another slip

[Johno6]

Touche

[Jim05]

if india last to the end of day 5 on 291

it will be a tie

Not unless they are bowled out on 291, otherwise its a draw

[NFC]

Sehwag gone!!!!!!!!

[locky801]

Hilf picks up Sehwag. Great catch by Hussey

[dedja]

Gambhir is looking very shaky, and Sehwag is gone ...
