Haddin.... argh.............

 

[Precambrian]

He doesnt endear himself to anyone, Gavaskar. Playing the blunt guy is convenient, but it's got limits. Sometimes gives me a creep.

However, he's got a point, but is at sea to express it.

 

[four_or_six]

Watson has bowled well. That wasn't good from Haddin at all.

 

[IndGunner]

Isn't haddin playing with an injury or something? must be affecting his focus

and a another drop this one a caught and bowled by kato

 

[four_or_six]

Nice from Aleem Dar.

 

[silentstriker]

Yea, Watto has bowled real well. Australia would hope to clean up this tail really quickly now, for less than 500.

 

[alternative]

Good total imo.

Just FTR knew Dhoni was going to throw it away before getting 500.

 

[alternative]

VVS indeed is very very special against aussies.

150 up.

 

[Johnners]

Good total imo.

Just FTR knew Dhoni was going to throw it away before getting 500.

Ganguly, such a dud.

 

[pup11]

Watto has been good because of his upright seam presentation, that is something the other quicks in the Aussie line-up can take cue from, most of them deliver the ball with a wobbly seam, and that has somewhat added to their woes.

Anyways seeing the way Katich is bowling i am now sure Beau Casson would have been worth the gamble on this tour after McGain was ruled out, as Julian said during commentary, the prime reason for the selectors to not pick him was that he bowls at a slowish pace through the air, which should really not have been that big a deal.

 

[silentstriker]

Why are the commentators talking about a declaration? It's a good time to bat, and it won't be on the 5th day. Bat as long as you can IMO and hopefully only once. No declaration.

 

[IndGunner]

Ganguly, such a dud.

Why is ganguly such a dud?

doesnt he have a better average than most of the Aussie batsmen for the series

 

[alternative]

Ganguly, such a dud.

Haha. Great see Watto supporter throwing cheap shots just like the ****wit watto himself.

 

[Redbacks]

They might bat till tomorrow and make 600odd, or they could declare tonight on 550 and get 5 overs at Australia, maybe dismiss Hayden

 

[Lambu]

Haha. Great see Watto supporter throwing cheap shots just like the ****wit watto himself.

so true.

 

[alternative]

Awesome stuff from Laxamn today, loving it.

 

[duffer]

Haha. Great see Watto supporter throwing cheap shots just like the ****wit watto himself.

Heh, when even Mark Waugh's taking the piss out of an Aussie it's undeniable how farcical he is.

 

[four_or_six]

Good on Watson for his efforts today. At least he's playing with some oomph... something many of his team-mates appear to be without.

 

[silentstriker]

They might bat till tomorrow and make 600odd, or they could declare tonight on 550 and get 5 overs at Australia, maybe dismiss Hayden

If they declare on 550, they'll have around 25 or so overs at Australia.

I hope the Aussie batsmen can show some spunk in this game, they were really piss poor in Mohali, a good first innings reply can go a long way in helping them salvage a draw in this game.
