*Official* Australia in India - ODIs

[pasag]

That was a lot of fun.

 

[Stapel]

What in the world is wrong with a run-a-ball century as an ODI opener, even on the flattest of pitches???

Praveen.. seriously last over is definitely the over to bowl length bowls and short bowls....

Anyway... 351 on this pitch and this bowling lineup is quite chaseable.

It's a lot of runs though and all it takes is the odd good over/poor shot/bit of luck/etc and India will be gone

I'd say 60/40 to Oz with a lot depending on Sehwag because he is the guy that can keep them in sight right from the word go

 

[Sylvester]

350 is a good total, we don't have the overly attacking bowlers that in the past conceded those record totals. But the inexperience might get to our bowlers.

What's the bet that India wins the game where they bowl and field very ordinarily, after losing the game where they were fantastic in the field.

India have got no chance in hell. I don't care and I'm happy to take my words back but it's an almost certain 3-2 to Australia in the series. India don't deserve to win this game after that horrible bowling and fielding display.

60/40?

No way, 75/25 in Australia's favour at best. Even with Australia's bowling injuries.

Btw, Tendulkar's angry throw after he caught White out on the last ball summed up just how bad an effort that was from India.

Sure.. flat track. But 320 max is what Aust should have gotten.

That would be gold.

Like some others, I dont understand the criticim of Marsh

100+ @ 100 sr is very good anywhere except the back-garden

Was also pleased to see White play his natural game and showpeople what he's capable of

Yeah definately; Australia's favorite to win.
Really need Sehwag to go on today for India to win.... not the usual 30 of 15 stuff.

Why the **** are India only $4

This is ridiculous, was hoping for some value at India, looking at $5.50 and then laying them after a quick Sehwag start (hopefully).

Instead you'd think they're chasing 280.

Ridiculous.

stan daaaaaaaarsh

Was at West Ryde Hotel with mates and $10 dollar steak. Watching Watson and Marsh bat was just sublime, raucous cheers when Marshy hit the two to reach his ton. One of my favourite cricketing moments.

Refuse to read any post before this one, can only assume Marsh has received criticism for only striking at 100, or some rubbish like that.

Smiling so much here. Lovely looking knock, that six over point was immense. WAG.

Good steak?

 

[shanmuga1980]

Good steak?

Seriously recommend it if you're ever around. Includes chips and salad aswell, bargain.

 

[Nate]

Voges bowling to get us home.

...

 

[four_or_six]

Mmm... chips.

 

[Uppercut]

Harbhajan aside, that bowling/fielding performance was one of the worst I've seen in a long time.

 

[R_D]

Finally... 17,000 runs to Sachin...Congrats

Yeah for sure... besides the drop catches... so many fumbles in the field and general misfield were ridiculous.

Love you Sachin.
