Starts today at 5pm and it's looking like Kallis might be right for this game. It would be good if Michael Hussey could go on and start putting a few scores together but will Hauritz get picked? ;) He usually gets dropped after he's done alright.

Merv has just informed that this is the worst start in ODIs by Australia ever.

Well, if you are still watching, that was a nice shot from Johnson. That avoids the lowest score by Australia in ODIs.

Which game was that? Wasnt the 1985 game at Adelaide Oval against NZ was it? I seem to recall that was a nightmare, but i think they scored about 90 or so that game..

Yes, 70 runs.

70 was the total in this match in 1977 as well:

Seems okay to me, give her a go!

On the other hand, Courtney Walsh needs subtitles.
