***Official*** India in Australia

Because of course it's embarrassing to have a player complaining about being racially abused? 8-)
Because it seem to me to only happen when we are struggling for wickets, where is all of the rhetoric of what happens on the ground stays on the ground?

Should change it to what happens on the ground stays on the ground (as long as we are winning8-) )

India need wickets - the lead will start to raise eyebrows pretty soon. In any case, Ponting is officially Harbhajan's bunny! I love it.

My God, Harbhajan getting Ponting on the first ball he faced from him was one of the greatest things ever.

Have a think Punter, because he's killing you atm.

I don't understand why player of Ponting's quality is such a bunny to a quite an average bowler. It's got to be in the mind now IMO.

- This is what makes Hayden such a good batsman. He will make runs for you even when he has to grit it out in the middle. Top inning by Hayden so far.

- Good decision to bring in Tendulkar. He has a good chance to take 1-2 wickets on this pitch given the turn it is offering and how he can be a tricky customer.

Ritchie Benaud - his cricketing knowledge is just incredible. As sharp as he ever was. Just answered another of those Johnny Walker cricket questions.

It should also be said the Benaud replaced Craig as captain of Aust. and they were team-mates at NSW

Richard would always come up and say Hayden is not good enough to score runs on dicey tracks but the Indian attack was so dire that they just weren't able to bowl in the right areas! :p

That Hussey's Heroes vs. Roy's Rebels ad has been talked about a lot (its brilliant), but that first kid who is chosen, who Hayden taunts saying "hope you brought your helmet", has a really dopey and deep voice for a 10 year old or whatever he is.

Extremely dopey when he says "won't need it".

I've captained Australia? :-O

Interesting that Hayden is struggling enough that Ponting is now acting as a runner. I guess Chris Rogers would be next person in line if Hayden's back is bad enough for Perth, unlikely that it is.

Australia now officially ahead in the match. I don't really see India winning now, unless the Aussies collapse (doubtful).
