I'll assume you don't have any coverage of the test series. If you do email me your address and I'll send you my glasses, you can borrow them for the rest of the series.

spot the sarcasm genius.......
might wanna look back at some old richard-tooextracool posts too where ive backed both katich and martyn as good players of spin while our buddy said that they were both 'weak'.

 

[tooextracool]

Where did I say that he has redeemed himself? I was mentioning the fickle nature of the Indian supporters and their changing their mind, game by game on the ability of their players.

well then i apologise for misreading your post.
which 'indian supporter' did say that zaheer was useless though?

 

[Waughney]

Gillespie and Kasprowicz out in quick succesion....

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

I don't think Lehmann will be missed. This may well mark the end of his career, but for those who have watched his performance in this series I cannot imagine he intended to remain for much longer, he simply didn't loot hit, comfortable or particularly dedicated, despite a nice innings yesterday.

I would also like to see Watson debut if Ponting is not fit for the fourth test, but I don't think he will. It will be either Ponting at 3 and Katich at 5, or Clarke at 5 and Hodge at 6.

Jeez, young Clarky might be stranded in the 80s or 90s. Hope Pigeon can stick around for the ton to happen.

L Sivaram (or whatever) is a complete idiot. For Gillespie he saw some big inside edge when there was none. Then he changed it to faint inside edge. Then, maybe none. Of Course the cereberal Slats then jumped in and claimed you can hear 2 noises but can't see the edge. This is such a joke. I can't believe I am paying for this moron L Siva to do commentary.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Cracking pull shot for 4 from McGrath.

As I said that, McGrath proceeded to hit 7 off 2 balls.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Haha, and now McGrath punishes the bad ball. A century in his 100th test match maybe?

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Clarke unfortunately out for 91. Still, a great innings and he has answered his critics once again.

Khan gets 4 wickets and Australia all out for 398. India will need to bat well on a pitch with plenty in it for quick bowlers.

 

[Slats4ever]

how bloody good is pigeon... indias bowlers are bad... but this bad? i had no idea...

 

[Sehwag309]

Barry Richards/ Dean jones talking abt the hard criticism on gangs and the politics around BBCI etc.

They talk abt the the toss and he said India has lost its last 6 tosses anf ganguly only won 25% in his career

Dean said they should send others to win the toss, barry said he did (dravid) and he lost too

Dean said, they should try everyone in the team, Barry said , anyone but parthiv patel he would drop the coin

I heard that too. Good one ! I think Ganguly, Yuvraj and Parthiv should all be sent back to prove themselves all over again (Parthiv for the first time) in domestic cricket;

Agreed. But Clarke did have 2 lives, right (Patel ?). I think McGrath will be extremely dangerous - lot of pressure. This could be his showcase (100th) Test

Terrific catch from Gilly to dismiss Sehwag. Difference in keepers showing.

Difference has been showing, and has been seen by all, for many a Test now. Everyone has seen it EXCEPT Ganguly

 

[JustTool]

Chopra, even with his measly 9, has already done more than the pathetic Yuvraj in the last Test(s). I know Ganguly is watching BUT does he get it ? Not a chance !

How can you talk of a difference between Gilchrist and Parthiv ?????

Whats the difference between David Beckham and Tony Blair ?? One is a footballer the other isn't PERIOD
