**Official** Australia in India Thread

The genius Bucknor - at work again....another case easily resolved by technology.

Yousuf Youhana was nearly dismissed by Rangana Herath a few overs before the close but Steve Bucknor didn't spot the ball popping off his bat onto boot straight to the short-leg fielder. Youhana was unbeaten on 23 when stumps were drawn, but Pakistan would need a minor miracle to save this one.

Relevance to the Australia in India series?

A ball into the boot is about the hardest call to pick.

Good news that Sachin is back, game on.

Anyway, Let us congratulate Shane Keith Warne for becoming the highest wicket taker in the world. One has to stand up and give a long round of applause to this champion bowler from Victoria.


He has revolutionized the art of leg spin bowling with his wizardy. He is a great character and his on field activities can be emulated by any upcoming youngsters.


Who can forget his special delivery to Gatting at Old Trafford in 1993? Who can forget his 8/71 against England at Brisbane in 1994-95? Who can forget his 8 for against Pakistan at Brisbane in 1995-96? How special was the delivery to Basit ali in the same series? Who will forget his heroics in Sri Lanka this year? Who can forget his 6 for at Old Trafford in 1997? Can anyone forget his so many of his mesmerising and awe-inspring spells?

His drift, loop, dip, side spin, top spin, over spin and craft can be showcased in a museum which will be an inspiration for a millennium. He is a once in a century cricketer. We are all privileged to have lived in this age when he has played.

It is a pleasure to struggle against Warne. It is a privilege to get out to him. It is a great honor to score runs against him. Rahul Dravid had the pleasure and privilege of struggling and getting out so many times to him. Sachin Tendulkar and VVS Laxman has the greatest honor of scoring runs off this champion.

He might not hold this record forever. But his legacy will live forever. Those luck souls who were present at the MA Chidambaram stadium will say for years " I was there".


Shane Warne - Take a bow! You are the greatest spinner the world has ever seen. We won't see a better bowler than you. If you see one then we will be in cloud nine!

Exactly the response I expected, elicited and got. 8-) Thank you for confirming what I believed, and I feel sorry for your lame attempt at personal insults. Because things are 'hard to pick' is why umpires need assistance. Hope that's not too complicated and hope you can keep the discussion to cricket :)

You guys are so smart. And to be part of the same mutual-admiration society is just oh so English :) Hopefully, they can start playing some real cricket in England soon and you won't be so frustrated...like Hussain.

Wow. You couldn't have been condescending even if you said that while sitting at your throne and Marc was polishing your shoes with his tongue.

im surprised that australia havent have enough warm up games on this tour, certainly would have thought that they would like to get more non-test match practice in between tests as well as try out some other players.

Amazingly enough, one of local TV stations here has decided to pick up the India-Australia Test series midway! This means that I'll see the remaining Tests live and free. I'm in heaven!
