[ajdude]

if my daughter ever came up to me and said 'dad can we watch freo' I'd probably neck myself there and then

 

[Spikey]

hey guys wade gathered a tricky one correctly

 

[social]

Reckon Oz are done here as we will be lucky to get 150 in our second innings unless India bowl their dibbly dobblers for more than a couple of overs

hope this portugese prick gets dhoni on debut

 

[Spikey]

nope not that one

 

[hendrix]

**** off harbhajan that ****ing century

 

[Mr_Ronan]

no.

1. He escaped because of poor umpiring, not lack of DRS (i.e. a better umpire may have given it)
2. He was the second, not the 4th.
3. Clarke escaped with an equally bad decision and scored a century, which is much more than you can say for Jadeja.
4. Numerous Australian tailenders might have been overturned under DRS.


tl:dr: They don't want it because they're halfwits, not because it would cancel any perceived advantage.

In response:

1. If DRS was in use he was gone.
2. Hawkeye replay showed Tendulkar LBW would have hit off stump, Jadeja was LBW to Starc (clearly pad before bat), Dhoni clearly did not inside edge that one from Patto , Bhaji was plumb. So, yeah it is four.
3. Yep Clarke was lucky and...
4. ...there were also two aussies tailenders who were lucky, but India have had 3 batsmen get reprieves and one tailender.

I hope this innings will stop people underestimating Dhoni as a test batsman. He is definitely test class in Indian conditions.

good onya moz

 

[benchmark00]

Yesssssss MOZZZZ

 

[Spark]

wtf sort of shot was that?

 

[Howe_zat]

jeed: "Hmmmm. 90 minutes left for scheduled close, 30 overs minimum should be bowled by a team bowling 13 overs per hour. Indian fans should hope Clarke get banned for the next match for poor over rate."

jeed there informing us there are 39 minutes in an hour

 

[Spikey]

good boy moz - keeping the bowled record on

 

[benchmark00]

ajdud

 

[Mr_Ronan]

Woeful shot but that was actually a really good ball from Henriques...tailed in to him and then a fair bit of seam movement too. Nice stuff.

How do u guys reckon he's bowled so far? I think he's done his job nicely, despite Dhoni really taking him on earlier.
