As you said! Take this:

17.2 Harbhajan Singh to Ponting, 4 leg byes, sharp, flat delivery down the pads and it beats leg slip
17.1 Harbhajan Singh to Ponting, FOUR, good shot there, Ponting skipping down and collecting the ball on the full, clipping it over midwicket for four, and Australia's lead passed 100
Yeah. you must be so proud of your countryman pounding those fours off Harbhajan.

Makes sense, gets carted against India, breaks down and quits the game, one FC match later and you want him back into the Test side above a proven performer like Bollinger? Grrr.
Yeah Bollinger should step in for Clark, no two ways about that he deserves a chance as he has been doing really well for a while now, but losing Clark would be huge lose nonetheless.:(

Haha, how about no? One of the stupidest things I've read re: team selection.
Especially considering Tait himself has confessed that his bowling isn't upto test standard yet, so he is much better off playing Shield games this season and working on his bowling.

Ooooh, Kato living very dangerously here. Bhajji is getting closer. Surely Rudi has to crack soon?

Ponting looking good till now. If he could stay there till the evening, aus would get a lead of above 260 thereabouts

How good is this? Seriously amazing cricket to watch. Loving every minute. Ponting vs Harbhajan is enthralling.

I think it's worth noting right now, the umpiring has been excellent. Katich had one appeal which could have been given and Hayden probably wasn't out, but both are pretty understandable and the decisions on a few of the other close ones have been really brilliant. Umpires always get bashed on here, so it's worth giving some credit. Rudi's having a good one.

edit: Damn, gone.

I think one very serious problem with Katich is that when he is put under any sort of pressure he just goes into a shell and gets terribly bogged down, which puts pressure on the batsmen at the other end too, so Katich needs to find a way to break the shackles and not just let the bowlers get on top of him like this.
