Should be a draw, however hopefully we get close enough to the total and salvage some respect and entertain the crowd somewhat.

Dispute of the day
Dhoni played the ball towards Mitchell Johnson at short fine leg and ambled the single. Johnson fielded and, seeing that Dhoni was yet to make his crease, threw the ball towards the bowler's end, by which time Aleem Dar had already handed Krejza his cap. Krejza missed the ball and the back-up fielder at mid-off - Michael Clarke - was bent over and didn't realise that the ball had sped past him towards the boundary. Ponting had a long chat with Billy Bowden and seemed to indicate to Aleem Dar that he had already called over before the throw from Johnson. The umpires didn't agree.
were there any runs score from the overthrow? seems stupid for Bowden to hand Krejza's hat before the ball reaches the wicket...

Took a piece of the leather that was sticking out off the ball. I'm sure it he didn't mean to 'ball-tamper' and he did it without thinking, but will probably be some sort of penalty for it anyway.

Yeah White's intention wasn't malicious, but its probably better for Australia that he gets banned anyway :ph34r:

Awesome. I would hate to see that being let off so easily.

Right, he may not mean it, but the stupidity of it should merit a punishment, esp after Ponting was warned by umpires before that for "cleaning' the ball without assistance of umpires.

TV showed Cameron White peeling off leather from the ball as if it was an orange.
If the loose piece was on the "rough" side of the ball, then he should be penalised by his own teammates for peeling it off as it would only aid reverse swing

Sounds like a total non-issue
