1st Test: India v Australia at Bangalore

[mal]

Oh dear just a thought , stand by for perhaps some dubious umpiring decisions
Im betting AU gets the most 50/50 decisions in Indias last dig

[mal]

[quote="mal"]AU likely to bat 45 minutes today and get a lead of about 310
That should be plenty on a deck thats playing tricks
My man Stuart Clark will be a handful on day 5 and the likely match winner if AU win


INDIA 1/16
CLARK the wicket taker

[am Bays]

Big wicket makes it hard for India now as Shewag is the one Indian player who is in form and can score quickly.

[Dogwatcher]

Does anyone else wish Mike Coward would stop being the commentator on "all things Indian" and just commentate on the game? Rather than showing off his superior knowledge of Indian culture, food and history? It's nice to have a chat to keep the commentary flowing - but that's all he's doing...

IN 2/24
The perennial 4th innings chokers are doing it again
And here I was thinking that 299 was a generous target
OUT
SHEWAG
DREARYVID

Perennial 4th innings superchoker against AU Tendulkar is now in

[damian]

Feeling good about my money on the Aussies to win at $5!

[MightyEagles]

India 2/50 after 19 overs.

If he upsets you that much, why not place one of his comments in your signature?

[MightyEagles]

Ind 3/77 after 26.4 overs

[catchisthecry]

Bloody ordinary from India.
Needed 200 off 50 overs and Laxman and Tendulkar going at snails pace.
Don't get too many chances to bt australia, have a go!!

[RoosterMarty]

Pretty exciting stuff.

[RoosterMarty]

Haha does anybody else find it hilarious that White's first wicket in Test cricket is Tendulkar?

The crowd looked pretty happy.

A few more quick wickets could make the game interesting but I can't see a result here.

[stan]

Just got tendulkar for 49

[stan]

oh what f****** crap there about to offer the batsmen the F****** light.
Turn the damn lights on if you have to!

[RoosterMarty]

It was only a matter of time, Sachin was having a cry when he was walking off because they didn't bow down when he wanted the light offered.

[norm11]

Score?

[rod_rooster]

India 4/165. Need 133 to win but just 16 overs left. Players off for bad light again even though the light isn't that bad. This is ridiculous.

[mal]

AU would be kicking themselves
AU largely dominated for 5 days and we get a draw
Winning that toss in India is a big advantage and we didnt nail them

Well done to Sachin on his greatest 4th innings dig v AU ?
Well done to WATTO as well in only his 3rd test


Agree with the light
Its the most damming thing in cricket
Simple solution
Why not start the games 30 minutes earlier !@#$%^$#$%^&*&^%$#@$%^&

[hawkseye]

Im not usually in this threa but im annoyed Zaheer was given man of the match ahead of Hussey.

Very good point, why not start at 9am, plenty of light then?
