***Official*** Australia in India 2012/13

anybody picking 2 spinners to play?

 

[Spikey]

just on lyon and the growing chat about him, given he got into the team more on bowling a certain style rather than wickets, surely all he has to do to keep his spot is to bowl that style. (which he hasn't been doing)

 

[Prince EWS]

India.

 

[Daemon]

2-0 to Australia.

First Test starts on my birthday. India better do well on that day at least.

 

[Prince EWS]

But if Lyon gets dropped, who will lead out team song!

I believe we'll see this squad:
Clarke (c) Watson (vc) Warner Cowan Hughes Bailey Wade Siddle Starc Pattinson Lyon Johnson Bird DHussey Beer

I'm pretty sure Maxwell will be in the squad, FTR. Hussey and Bailey probably fighting for one spot.

 

[Spikey]

jono to attend Delhi ftr

 

[uvelocity]

India.

enuff jokes, tipping ladder

 

[nsniks]

Would be attending Delhi test match for sure

I can't really see it happening, unless Maxwell or Hussey gets the six spot and you call either of them a spinner.

Warner and Clarke will be called upon to bowl a reasonable number of overs if the conditions suit, otherwise we'll have to rely on our fast bowlers to do most of the damage.

 

[Spikey]

i don't see clarke putting too much strain on his back just for a ****ing india tour when we have 10 Ashes tests this year.

 

[Jono]

There are actually only 9 Ashes tests this year dickwad

 

[Spikey]

i was saying this year as in the next 12 months you ****ing damien martyn

 

[Jono]

No one says "this year" to mean the next 12 months. Not even Damien Martyn.

 

[Spikey]

martyn does, but he thinks they're 14 months in a year

 

[Jono]

martyn does, but he thinks they're 14 months in a year

You can't bag Damien Martyn for being dumb and make this grammatical mistake at the same time.

The vibes I'm getting is that Beer will definitely be picked, and so he should. I'd think he'd be good in India. Quick through the air so he's tough to play off the back foot like you should look to do on slow turners and a good UFO ball which slides on.

 

[Jono]

No one can ever say no to a quick beer.

 

[Daemon]

Any news on Yadav's injury?

 

[vic_orthdox]

Yeah, think he's probably better suited to India than many of the other options. (EDIT: Beer, in reply to Benchy)

Maybe SOK might be OK, with his side spinners too, but none of our spinners get as much work on the ball as Swann or Monty.
