LOL I wrote that email to you Turby not Precambrian.

Ouch pretty much got a taste of my own medicine

Ind needs to attack more ..... and i don't know why Kumble is bowling first up

Worth a crack but Kumble, great bowler though he is, hates conceding runs off his bowling and it could work out well for Oz if he goes into his usual defensive mode

Yeah, very surprised to see Kumble opening with Khan.

Great to see the Aussie openers going out ont eh attack. I think they've sense the hesitation of the Indians. 0/150-odd at lunch, please.

Good fifty by Katto....

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Best batting display we've put in since the first day of the series.

 

[ret]

50 up for Katich

watching Kumble bowl is a pain .... trying to pitch on the rough thats further up from the batsmen

Ishant brought into the attack .... may be that will bring some luck to India

 

[Top_Cat]

One slip for Sharma?! Man, thats just crap. They're still 500+ runs in front!

 

[silentstriker]

Kumble is so crap at setting fields, it's so bad. One slip? Ugh.

 

[duffer]

Wicket please!

 

[ret]

Wicket please!

Mishra please

Well, you said that and a catch DIDN'T go to slip so I guess the spell is broken. Happy to end my campaign to have you banned from the forum for the duration of the series. haha

100 up for Australia

Good to see some people have a laugh at my expense.

Great opening partnership this! Glad to see Hayden back to form, in no small measure helped by Kumble the bowler and the captain.

 

[pup11]

Haha, i love it when Katich desperately dives like that to make his ground, the guy probabaly doesn't have any skin left on his elbows and forearms by now, but that surely was moronic running between the wickets there, no need to take risks like that.

 

[Top_Cat]

Haha, the Cricinfo guy is on fire today!

Breaking news: This is the first time Matthew Hayden and Simon Katich have been involved in a century partnership. Okay, not breaking news, but still.

No reverse swing yet, in case you were wondering.

During the break, Tendulkar gave an animated speech to the huddle. Ai la!

One more of his pearls....

 

[Precambrian]

Gambhir banned?!
