Clarke ahead of Hussey, what is going on.

No point giving possibly the best player in the world too long to bat, that would be unfair

And Clarke is sick ffs!

Oz has seriously lost the plot

Edit: they lost the plot before the tour started and are now just compounding their errors

**** you Billy Bowden, how the fuch can he be so condescending in his attitude towards the Indian players? Tell me if that's not plumb, what is

TBF Billy's condescending to everyone

 

[Precambrian]

Good RR. Aus will easily win this if status quo continues.

They are probably taking this as an ODI and Clarke bats at 4 in the ODI' so that' the only reason i see behind this and maybe they didn't want two LHB together at the crease, but anyways its pretty mind boggling to say the least.

Or on second thoughts i think he is out their to just throw his bat around as he out there with a runner.

Maybe they want Hussey to bat with the tail, because at the moment it looks like he's our only hope to bat out the whole day.

If only Hussey had shown the ability to score consistently at the Test level, you know, compared with a player who needs a runner.

Geez, get a grip. He made a mistake. Don't see how that counts as being condescending.

A lot of edges though.

Apparently Clarke is "generally unwell", hence the runner.

WTF? Wasnt he bowling yesterday? Dhoni should complain this to match referee.

Clarke is a fast runner. He wouldn't have asked for a runner if he wasn't sick - it's not an advantage to him. He has to be actually sick.

His reaction afterwards to Sharma. As if Sharma is a pest. Saw that attitude to Laxman also, when he signalled universal shutup sign.

The most weird thing is Clarke is not well and he is out there with a runner so what would make one promote him in the batting order in such circumstances.

It's what he does to everyone. Aussies included, even if he'd kill to be one.

I was thinking like this also.

 

[Anil]

the run rate is disturbingly high...the indians need to bowl tighter lines...

 

[silentstriker]

Saw the split screen with Clarke and Vijay where one was given and the other wasn't. ****

Like batting with a runner is such an advantage

 

[Precambrian]

Unbelievable, plumbest lbw, the TV is showing his with that of Vijay, whose was terribly marginal. Well played Billy.

 

[duffer]

Unbelievable - run out by one of the worst fieldsmen in world cricket!

Haha, awesome. Can't wait for the highlights. Mishy!

I think it is to maintain the RHB-LHB combo.

Hayden looking so good.
