Haha, JackPot's first encounter with the Cricketwebenese acronym dialect. You'll get used to it soon enough.

Well, Ponting has called it right and obviously will bat. Let's see how India does. It looks to be a great batting track right now, unfortunately too good and it'll be a draw.

And White gets the gig. Worst possible choice, IMO.
Considering he'll bat at 8, anything less than 500 now would be a real let-down. They'll ned heaps to compensate for his bowling.

Dire choice, though.

EDIT: It sucks that a bloke who was plucked out of obscurity (Krejza) misses out, really. He must be thinking whether there was even a point to coming along if the incumbent gets injured but they fly someone else in, especially when the other guy has barely bowled in FC cricket for ages.

Confusing and destabilising selection is worse than a gamble which fails, I reckon.

a couple of centuries atleast or a big hundred, double hundred is up for grabs here

Right choice to pick White, even though he's nothing with the ball at least we have some extra batting. Krejza would have been even worse with not batting.

Does anyone know when the ABC Grandstand coverage will start?

Anyone got a radio link for this? Actually frothing at the mouth at the thought of this, bought myself some two minute noodles so I don't have to go out for lunch today. Almost ran back from class.

So would the lower order be...

Watson
Haddin
White
Lee
Johnson
Clark

Or would White bat above Haddin? Johnson has to be the best number 10 around, Test av of 33 but I'm sure that should drop over the season.

Doesn't ABC generally do these online?
