147kph? Didn't know his upper limit was that high.

He pushed 150 in Australia when he had his tail up. Getting Ponting out would probably give anyone a bit extra tbh.

90mph again. Interesting. I hope he doesn't go too hard. We need him to bowl long accurate spells at decent pace, rather than trying to be express.

Reckon Zaheer is the big threat to Hussey (Lefties in general) being able to angle the ball in & seam/swing it away. Don't think Sharma is quite as good to the lefties can be left alone on the angle across the batsmen a lot & don't think he is comfortable bowling around the wicket.

Ponting's 123 is obviously a blip on his poor record in India. He hasn't proven anything this tour....

Nah, he has. Still has to do more, but its a big question answered.

ABC radio doesn't have the online broadcast rights to cricket in Australia. I'm actually not sure who does but they seem to just want to hoard them without using them which is a shame.

I could see Aus being in this same position as India if we had one the toss. Still with Clark out we couldn't afford our best bowler to bowl horribly. If India didn't have a few concentration lapses they could very well have been 600+, virtually no one looked like getting out. Can't blame our batsmen here much, out for so long in the field, I had a sneaking suspicion we'd lose a few quick ones, lucky we bat deep. Hopefully we can shut up shop and salvage a draw and come back refreshed after the break with some sort of plan.

I have a feeling White will get a significant score in this Test; I've thought so since before it started for some reason. Looks like we'll need it.

His effort balls can be very quick indeed, when he pushes those legs through the action powerfully.

Completely agree with this, i am never comfortable to see Australia bat second after the other team has put substantial runs on the board, they in general screw up, and that has been pretty much the case today, but the ball for some reason is reversing for the Indian quicks and that too so early on in the innings, and that has also played a part in the poor Aussie batting display so far.
