*Official* Australia in India 2010

[King Pietersen]

Virender Sehwag is actually too good. Like a batting version of Graeme Swann.

 

[tombarlow123]

He's not a great batsman at all yet, tbh. Not by a loooooong stretch.

Okay, well if you want to be pedantic with the word great, you can surely admit he is a good batsman. And he isn't always boring to watch. And as I say that another pair of BEAUTIFUL shots by Sehwag

 

[TT Boy]

Road war for the Indian batsman. Dhoni must be kicking himself as Aus should have been shot out for at least 100 less.

Re: Katich. It's how many that matters, not how. And how can you dislike a guy whose very grit is made up of smaller, harder bits of grit?

No-one was suggesting otherwise; no need to get defensive.

Don't really like watching Katich bat heaps either but there's no doubt he's a gun.

 

[Uppercut]

Wow, the second four of that over was awesome. Even I loved it and I don't really like watching Sehwag bat at all. He played it like it was an underpitched off break. Rocked back and hammered it.

Whaaaaaaaaat

 

[BoyBrumby]

Whaaaaaaaaat

Indeed. PEWS hates puppies and ice cream too, I hear.

 

[mohammad16]

Whaaaaaaaaat

I think he wasnt too impressed by Sehwags first impression when he came on. He was still an aggressive bat then, but his game was not as polished, he is a lot more sublime, calm and stylish in his stroke play now.

 

[Top_Cat]

Whaaaaaaaaat

The man jizzes at the first sign of a Kallis' forward defense. You cannot be surprised.

 

[Evermind]

Johnson, once the third best paceman in the Aus attack (after Lee and McGrath) is now their main bowler. They still win a lot, but they're a shadow of their former selves.

Sehwag's at 37 already?? WTH.

 

[Uppercut]

Indeed. PEWS hates puppies and ice cream too, I hear.

Watching him bat makes me think there needs to be a law passed against being Virender Sehwag on the grounds that it makes batting far too easy.

 

[Prince EWS]

Whaaaaaaaaat

Haha I'm aware I have very unconventional tastes when it comes to what I like watching when it comes to batting, but Sehwag definitely isn't my cup of tea. Stays leg side of the ball and just tried to carve it through the off 90% of the time, although I will admit I quite like his on side shots when he plays there. No doubt he's an awesome batsman and that it's very effective but there are quite a few I'd rather watch.

 

[Burgey]

Re. Gambhir:

He's all right, but I have a theory he will **** like an Alsatian dog when he gets on bouncy wickets. Im not calling him that good til then.

But my opinion is clouded by the fact he's a complete ****, obviously.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Short leg, Ricky, maybe?

Wouldn't fancy it much myself, but if Johnson's gonna bowl short to Sehwag you gotta give him a chance.

 

[Spark]

Moment of truth.

Haha, not a good start.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Feck, that's a gash ball first up. Full bunger.

& over compensates. This could be quick and brutal.

 

[King Pietersen]

Great start from Hauritz.

 

[Prince EWS]

I do like watching Hauritz get hammered though so I might enjoy myself a bit of Sehwag in this match...

 

[tombarlow123]

Thought Hauritz might keep it tight early on. He's just given the best Test batsman in the world a full toss and a half volley first up...shows what I know...

 

[Kylez]

Bloody Sehwag carving it up again. I thought Bollinger and Hilfenhaus bowled decent in the first few overs but then lost it after that. The short stuff wasn't up to standard either.

Hauritz on..

 

[King Pietersen]

50 for Sehwag from 38 balls. WAFG.
