Sri Lanka v Australia 3rd Test

[Jim05]

Johnson out for stuff all.
Siddle and Haddin have got a nice little partnership going. Lead over 300 now. Dare say it will be called off early

Wheres all the critics ???????????????????????????????????????
Quick to criticise Clark for playing that flimsy shot in the first dig
Has played his shots in his glorious match saving 2nd dig, and NO critics
Oh thats right there gunna wait for Clarke to get out to an attacking shot before they post

As for Phillip Hugues, got out to a flimsy sweep, but he attacked and made a 100 +
Thats the way for him to bat ALL the time
Unless we are 9 for with a few overs left

AU are gunna win this series 1-0
Clarkes been a mostly attacking skipper
His batsman as a rule have played thier shots
AU have made the play and deserve to win

AU 4/304

FFS Mal, any batsman worth 1/2 their weight in salt couldn't help but make runs on this ROAD especially given a 2nd chance.
1 st innings runs are made by great batsmen and set games up to be WON, 2nd innings runs to force a draw are admirable but wont return the team to No. 1.

Funny seeing Herath carrying on like a dickhead as if he's taken a wicket to win them the world cup after getting Siddle out.
Someone should tell the clown that they've LOST the series 1 - 0.

[Squids]

Marsh and Hughes must open the bowling!
