well can the indians win after fridays debacle ? i'd suggest they can with a better team in but doubt they will

no Stuart Clark in comes Ashley Nofke and Voges is on stand by incase Hayden dosen't play.

voges must be 12th man because Brad Haddin is playing


India 0/11 after 3 overs

Sewag bowled by Bracken 1/11

Tendulkar out after stepping on his own wicket!!

Why did they need third umpire when it was extremely obvious and why didn't Sachin just walk off? He knew he hit his own wicket!!

Amazing to see a player like him get out in that way.

TOTALLY agree why didn't Tendulkar walk ?

And even further from why didn't he walk, why when given out did he start shaking his head from side to side, hopefully it was just in disappointment that some one of his class made a mistake and not that he didn't agree with the decision

because the law has been changed, it use to read if you had finished with your shot your not out, now if you 'hit wicket' regardless of whether your through with the stroke or not, you are out, i'd say tendulaR was just getting clarification

Bill Lawry fumbles....

"Swing and a miss....GOT HIM, YESSSSSS!"

Sharma, caught Gilchrist bowled Lee.

Currently 6/103 off 26.3 - Lee has 3/22 off 8 overs so far.

So Tendulkar was out no matter what. Should of just walked off. Im sure you dont ask for clarification if you knick one behind or get bowled?

India all out for 194.

Australia need 196 to win.

Actually Australia need 192 to win, another rain delay caused the target to be reduced

now we require 141 off 26 overs

india scored at 4.3 runs per over, now we need to score 5.4 per over

where is our reward for bowling them out

Add to the fact the rain on the pitch has made the ball fly all over the place! I hate rain in one day cricket, totally stuffs it up.

This from the cricinfo commentary tonight:

20:54 local, 10:54 GMT The rain is back and everyone's going off. I don't think they will come back on. Its happened once too often. Harbhajan patted Clarke on the bum as he walked away. Clarke just smiled, but then of course the cameras were on him. Symonds didn't see it, as he was already walking off. Don't tell me we will have another incident. Its raining and the covers are back on. Cue the violins. And Milli Vanilli.

Does the guy go looking for trouble or what?????

Does any match ever get played in full at Brisbane?

Some of the commentary from cricinfo is gold and this is yet another example

Happy birthday Spelly

Cheers. Though I was hoping for a good match tonight, but not to be.

Some people very hard on Sachin here tonight, He obviously did not feel his foot trod on the stumps so was just seeking clarification as were the umpires.. I dont see any problem with that at all??

And with him shaking his head when he was heading off, He would no doubt just be annoyed with himself for making such a careless mistake at a crucial stage in a match. People do get disappointed when they get dismissed, dont read to much into it.
