Australia vs India

[crappycraperson]

450 would be safeish.

The fact that Kumble and Bhajji look comfortable out there doesn't bode well for us.

 

[crappycraperson]

I am off to bed now anyway, 3:40 am here now

 

[mehro]

Has anyone ever seen Australia drop so many catches in an innings?

 

[The_Red_Hope]

Yeah you are right. What's it been now, four or five dropped catches ?

Dang. Kumble's gone. 526 all out. Great show boys. Now for some early wickets.

 

[mjdj]

Less making ads - More fielding practice.

Anything less than 500 will be disappointing.

 

[mehro]

6 catches were dropped in that innings.

 

[crappycraperson]

This one is heading for a draw. Crap pitch.

 

[Merman]

Wonderful game. This is whats so beautiful about test cricket.

 

[mehro]

Heard that RP won't be playing today. Sucks.

 

[Merman]

I hope we win this match, it would be a great present for Sachin.

 

[crappycraperson]

Heard that RP won't be playing today. Sucks.

What?

 

[mehro]

Only bowled 4 overs yesterday and hobbled off clutching his hamstring.

 

[crappycraperson]

Well that effectively reduces us to 10 men

 

[mehro]

Yup. It's been confirmed. Ruled out for the day.

 

[VP]

It's going to be a draw.

I did not see Gilchrist's retirement coming. Also, I had no idea he was 36.

 

[ZIDANE]

I didn't think it would be so soon I thought he would have stayed a few series still he is going to carry on with the one day matches for the rest of the season.

Australia's Matthew Hayden:
They have very wide tactics and that was indicated by the fact they didn't want to take the new ball.

"They just wanted to stop us scoring, which is perfect for us really because all we wanted to do was bat for time in the game.

"The way they bowled today was perfect for us not to lose the game, Australia is 2-1 up in the series and we definitely want that to stay."

India's Virender Sehwag:
"I think it's been a great day for India, the bowlers did a great job on a flat track.

"I think they're not going to win so they are scared and playing very defensive.

"They only scored 260 in a day, this is not like Australia. Last time we came here they scored 400 in a day, I think they're scared about defeat."

 

[Merman]

I did not see Gilchrist's retirement coming. Also, I had no idea he was 36.

It is a sad news. He is a great keeper.

 

[mehro]

RP's been ruled out for the rest of the game.

 

[mehro]

The best part of this series has been... feck it. I don't want to jinx it. I'll tell you after the series.

I was referring to Ponting's poor form there.

And he's scored a 100 now. It's my fault that India won't win this game.

you silly boy

 

[Cornell]

Clarke drops another catch.

Would've been 2/2.

 

[Desert Eagle]

Well done Sehwag. Shame about Sachin's final innings down under. Also big up Gilchrist who is the greatest wicket keeper I have ever seen play.

 

[Donaldo]

Well, that was an anti-climax.

 

[Kiwi_fan]

I've decided that we're going to win this series. 2-1. You heard me.
