***Official*** India in Australia

Love how you can hear Huss in the background

"Good...good..."

But those KFC ads can die a slow horrible death.

I mean how is it possible to be 0/568 after 16 overs, at a run rate of 33 an over in a T20 game

Laxman out!

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Another!

Hoggy!

 

[Laurrz]

wonderful wonderful wonderful wonderful

AUSSIES ON TOP

well played VVS tho...

 

[JustTool]

Good Lord. What a crappy shot.

Crappy is being too kind Awful. He should have starred in the movie: MISREY. Knowing Indian cricket stay tuned for some sequels. Here's a prediction: Yuvraj will fail (again and again) in any quality Test cricket.

 

[LJMJ]

Laxman gone. Uh Oh. What a disaster. We're back in trouble again.

 

[funnygirl]

And we started the ultimatum

 

[NZTailender]

Ponting would have scored 0.

Going to have to agree with someone else here again. Dravid clearly isn't in form, and yet has scored 54. Any other out of form batsman would've been out for a score of <20 at a strike rate of about 50.

Aaaahh... a wicket goes down finally! We need to get either Tendulkar or Laxman out tonight just imagine both of them going beserk together!

 

[SJS]

Oh no !!

 

[Prince EWS]

Yeah agreed. Dravid's innings wasn't exactly as 'fun' to watch as Laxmans but it was an entirely different innings. Dravid added 54 runs to the Indian scoreboard, in a partnership of over a hundred runs after a wicket fell early. it was a valuable contribution.

And he did it all while obviously not seeing the ball as well as he usually does. Amazing innings for mine. Only got out once, too, which is always a plus.

And you would be critising him if he didn't get those runs and didn't last as long in that partnership with Laxman so STFU.

2 LAZY shots and Aussies back on top.

Told ya - Dravid's batting failed to wrest the initiative -- -- it was there to be had for India. Just like Kumble failed to seize it with his crappy field settings versus Symonds/Hogg.

Aussies gonna win another one here.

 

[Craig]

India can't afford to lose another wicket tonight.

 

[pasag]

And it comes to an end. But not before he reached his half century. Great innings for mine - showed us all why he averages 55. Runs out of form: the holy grail.

Agree very, very strongly with this, anyone can score centuries when they're at their peak and seeing the ball like it's a watermelon, but the scrappy affairs when you're clearly out of form, worn out and going through a really bad rough patch, for me seperates cricketers and shows why Dravid is one of the best of this generation.

And your problem is.....?

We did it!!
C'mon guys one more.

 

[Laurrz]

oh my that was close

so impressed with Pontings captaincy.. i would've personally taken Midge off...but now he's bowling very very well and thratening to take an edge every ball

 

[Top_Cat]

Awesome knock by Laxman but what a smart bit of bowling to get him. Hoggie saw Laxman was reaching in the previous over and made him reach a little more. Well bowled.

Tendulkar looks very vulnerable to a similar out to Dravid here.

 

[LJMJ]

Johnson with a beauty to SRT. Damn.

 

[Perm]

That's one example of why Australia are so good, they keep on trying through the whole day and now there are two new batsmen at the crease to face the last 30 minutes of play.

Congratulations on fantastic knocks from both Laxman and Dravid though. Two entirely different affairs, yet both beautiful in their making.
