***Official*** India in Australia 2011/12

[Athlai]

Time for me to accept that India will be the 4th best test team over the next decade. Fine with that as long as we smash ****s at home.

More like 7th.

 

[NUFAN]

Butterworth.

Oh yeah. I would probably go for Nathan Coulter-Nile.

 

[adub]

Miranda Kerr the new face of anti-union lock outs according to Nine news break.

Good for a gratuitous swimsuit shot though.

Even my missus doesn't mind me watching that shot. You have to appreciate outstanding work in any field of endeavour.

 

[Prince EWS]

Oh yeah. I would probably go for Nathan Coulter-Nile.

I like Coulter-Nile; reckon he'd be a bit Starc-like at this point though.

 

[Burgey]

Reckon Harris is hurt. Shaking his head and doesnt look happy at all.

Hopefully not.

 

[Sylvester]

Faulkner would have been the one but he's going for finger surgery. Other than NCN there is Hogan whose doing well this season.

 

[Nate]

If we had to include another quick in the squad, who would everyone pick?? The player has to be fit at the moment..

Trentland!

 

[NUFAN]

Took you a while to like him IIRC. Not really sure how Starc-like he'd be though, I think he'd be a success at Test level.

 

[adub]

One more than current?

No. In a three man attack I'd have Butts, Copes, Faulkner, NCN, and probably a few others in front of him. As the 4th quick he's not as critical if he goes bad. (although would be happier if the 5th bowling options were better than Muss, Pup, Warner and Punter.

 

[Spikey]

i would have picked josh lalor

Still sprays it a bit and reverts to the "I'm just gonna bowl short rocks now" option a bit too readily IMO. Just don't think he's quite there yet.

 

[benchmark00]

It's 3:00pm and we've still got 5 and a half hours of test cricket.

**** yeah.

 

[NUFAN]

FML - I have to actually get back to work in a few minutes. Too hot to be outside today.. Wanna see 1 more wicket before I go though.

 

[Spark]

Geez that's close.

 

[adub]

i would have picked josh lalor

doesn't play Big-Bash so no chance for Test cricket.

Not getting any luck with the LBs.

 

[Burgey]

In other news, in 1854 on this day Anthony Faas of Philadelphia, PA, patented the accordion.

Sad day.

 

[Spark]

Wow Gambhir is lucky.

 

[Jacknife]

Someone just posted this on cricinfo, must be reading here.

"I feel that the selectors should have looked at Nathan Coulter-Nile as the fourth seamer for this match.

 

[adub]

odds on when we finally get an LB it will be missing by plenty?

Your fault for being a parking inspector imo.
