*Official* Australia in India 2010

[TumTum]

Ponting will not bat until 600.

Australia can't bat to 600.

 

[Faisal1985]

Good stuff from North and Paine...Australia getting the much needed confidence before Ashes in there young batsmen.

 

[Ruckus]

I hope if there is a chance to declare, Ponting isn't too cautious. Hopefully he will declare, at say 500, if the opportunity arises.

 

[Spark]

If recent history is a guide, he'll declare about 500.

 

[Spark]

Shelled! A real clanger.

TBF to Raina, he is generally a pretty good fieldsman but much of India's fielding wouldnt be out of place in club cricket

Hating that India are playing North back into contention for the Ashes 6 spot. Can't they do anything right?

 

[Spark]

Hmm, another mishap in the field. A bit all over the shop here the Indians.

And another drop! Goodness me. Maybe not fair to call that a catchable chance though

Oh, at last. That had been coming for a while, Paine just hasn't looked right for some time.

 

[Craig]

If recent history is a guide, he'll declare about 500.

Or earlier even.

 

[Top_Cat]

Wonderful bit of bowling there, surely he's gone.

 

[Ruckus]

Good knock from Paine, hopefully Johnson can up the ante here.

 

[Shri]

Finally...

 

[Spark]

Good knock and a great partnership nonetheless.

 

[Kylez]

Paine gone for a well made 59, the guy has really impressed me on this tour. Well bowled from Ojha as well, spin and bounce.

North approaching his hundred to..

 

[Craig]

An end of a Paine-ful innings for India.

 

[Craig]

99...

 

[Spark]

100 for North. Questions about whether he should even be playing aside, this has been a quality innings.

 

[Craig]

pasag is on suicide watch AWS.

 

[Ruckus]

100 for North. Questions about whether he should even be playing aside, this has been a quality innings.

[Ruckus]

Damn Johnson seriously needs to work on his batting.
