Very nicely, and he did in the first innings as well. He has actually looked more dangerous than Kumble a lot of the time during this test, and his match figures of 5-109 match up against Kumble's match figures of 2-150 pretty well.SJS said:
When did he get his first century in the series?FaaipDeOiad said:
He didn't. I meant that he deserved a century, for the second time in the series. He made 81 in the first innings in Bangalore, and was the catalyst for the Australian recovery before Gilchrist and Clarke ran away with it.Mister Wright said:

That's good to hear. He's a valuable player, but if his time is up now, I want it to be because the selectors pick Clarke, not because they are forced into it through Lehmann's injury. One of the most exciting things in this series has been the bat-off between the two, and I'd like to see a result based solely on that batting.Mister Wright said:
I don't think what you saw in Aus against India etc was back-up in the sense that they're the guys who will step up when Mcgrath and Gillespie are gone. At that stage I think they were seen as bowlers to fill the gap, but not really considered to be the next in line to front the attack full time. I wouldn't become too excited expecting Bracken or Williams to take over new ball duties when the inevitable happens!marc71178 said:
