Good thing Hilf didn't get a wicket then.

Haha that would've been irony of galactic proportions

 

[Jayzamann]

Laxman is a very poor batsman with the tail, from memory. Seen him do this in quite a few matches now.

Maybe his fourth innings average is so high because he's not-out at the end of the innings?

 

[Ikki]

Winning $260 not making me feel any better at all. Thought it'd cushion the disappointment, but it isn't in the least.

Ok, I'll give you my bank details.

 

[Contra]

Only way to level the series is if MS wins the toss next game. Otherwise Aus pretty much have the series. This is the only thing I hate about 2 match series.. lose the first and it's over

 

[Jayzamann]

Single.

 

[GotSpin]

Hilf has to be the unluckiest bowler.

 

[Cevno]

Wtf Laxman?

Another single of the first ball,which australia are happy to give.

 

[Spark]

Hilf has to be the unluckiest bowler.

I'll say.

 

[Murtini]

Sharma will be out this over and VVS deserves all the blame.

 

[Ruckus]

I love how attitudes change.

A couple of years ago most posters were saying that Hilf would never be test standard. Now he's an integral part of Australia's impressive fast bowling attack.

Every over he has bowled, there has been at least one danger ball. And apparently he is Ponting's second cousin. Hilf Rocks!

 

[Jono]

Okay look, there is no way that we'll win this, so it's not like I can jinx anyway. Since when could Ishant Sharma bat? His technique looks damn solid. Getting behind the ball nicely, playing with a straight bat.

 

[Jayzamann]

Sharma will be out this over and VVS deserves all the blame.

VVS to get out this over with Sharma to blame.

 

[Jono]

Ok, I'll give you my bank details.

Heh

 

[Jayzamann]

he is Ponting's second cousin

Tasmania,

 

[Spark]

Tasmania,

Hauritz in...hmmm.

I can only assume this is for tail-cleaning duties.

 

[Jono]

Are you guys honestly suggesting that VVS should turn down singles and take the strike and try and get 80 runs himself?

That's silly.

Duminy didn't do that in his huge partnership with Steyn at the MCG in 2008. You gotta bat with the tail and protect them at times sure, but don't turn down free runs.

 

[Ruckus]

Tasmania,

heh yeh exactly

 

[Jayzamann]

VVS to get out this over with Sharma to blame.

Okay I don't even know what I was trying to do there.

He shouldn't give Sharma five balls to face every over.
