[tigerpie]

-5 for every over not bowled......that'll get it back to 90 pretty quick.

[dedja]

what other indoor cricket rules do you recommend that they adopt?

[dedja]

Rubbish Captaincy by Smith.
3 overs after lunch and 6 on the fence for Spud Duminy

[The Sleeping Giant]

Bowler down. Trying to slow down the scoring.

[bennymacca]

They can and do ... the captain can be suspended for the next Test.

i know that it is in the rules that they can do it, but they rarely seem to enforce the rules if they bowl more than 80 overs in 6.5 hours

Bowler down. Trying to slow down the scoring.

Best way to slow scoring is to take wickets. Bring the field up and make Watson hit over the top

[The Sleeping Giant]

If only it was that simple.

[Jim05]

If only it was that simple.

Its not that simple but with the field back the Aussies can knock it around all day. Dont reckon we are in any hurry to declare

[Squids]

FFS I hate Watson the hack

or they could just hit it over the field....

and as i type that, watto is out!

[Jim05]

Geez that was terrible by Watson

[dedja]

Schiffer for brains ...

[bennymacca]

Geez that was terrible by Watson

harsh critic

just made a 32 ball 40 and hit a few sixes, of course he was going to hole out sooner or later.

good knock by watto, they are obviously trying to put the foot down now

Rubbish its only just after lunch on Day 2, he could of knocked around 6 runs an over atleast with that field.
Cant see what the big hurry is, id be batting to after tea

[whufc]

Tend to agree

Watson isn't the smartest cricketer getting around and it ended up an ordinary shot

But I wouldn't take to much into that innings.

For him to bat like that he obviously had a license to swing and at the end of the day if he averages 40 at 6 plus his his bowling he will be close to the best all rounder in cricket atm

[bennymacca]

well i didnt see you complain about the ones he was hitting out of the park jim

live by the sword, die by it

those are exactly the sorts of innings that are not good enough at number 3, but can be invaluable at 6, especially if it allows him to bowl more

It's Clarke and Boofs style, they want the game moving forward at a huge rate all the time, especially considering there could be abit of rain about today.
