Is that Mark Nicholas, the very very bad Ch 4 host?

Yes thats him , the very irritating commentator & former Hampshire skipper , why didnt they just get Rhavi Shastri again

 

[marc71178]

Or even Sidhu!

Shastri is even more annoying than Nicholas. To boot he's twice as boring.

Channel 9 have gone all out - Shastri is giving comments as well.

The radio is a better option. The ABC have Harsha Bhogle and Kerry O'Keefe in tandem - always entertaining.

Steve Waugh - oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

What a great start to the day but really really hope that they do not go back to their old ways and concede not more than 450.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

I must admit that I did crack a smile when I saw that Mr. Waugh was out for a duck. Unsure as to my motives though...

 

[iamdavid]

Shastri is even more annoying than Nicholas. To boot he's twice as boring.

He's IMO opinion the most biased commentator in the world , in the world cup final India were 3-50 odd from 13 overs chasing 360 & he was going on about how "Australia were just tipping the match in their favour".

He is actually quite funny , in the same respect as our friend Mr Amits , provided you dont take anything he says seriously.

Oh Dear , 3-13 lost in 4 overs before lunch

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Oh Dear , 3-13 lost in 4 overs before lunch

What's this?? An Aussie worrying? Concern? We can't have such nonsense.. get a grip. :P

A smile? I fell of my couch laughing like crazy

Inappropriate & unessecary , a simple would have sufficed.

It works both ways mate , we have the runs on the board & it will be EXTREMELY difficult to bat last on this deck , something you will have to do , provided we dont make you follow on

 

[NikhilN]

We will see

*breaks out again*

 

[Gaijin-san]

This might not have been so bad if:
A) Marto had stood his ground, or
B) He had run when Waugh told him to, as Waugh was running to the danger end.

Oh well, it's starting to get interesting!

I think we'll have to surgically remove that grin from Amits' face.

 

[masterblaster]

A good effort by Zaheer and Agarkar.

I still have a feeling though that a certain AC Gilchrist will blow India out of the water, as he has done so often in the past.

As an Indian supporter I hope he goes cheaply.

But Im expecting fireworks from that man...oops sorry! That run machine, Adam Gilchrist.

 

[NikhilN]

Stupid Rain :!(

 

[Choora]

Zaheer Khan Rocks!!!

Top effort by the best left armer in the game today, Zaheer bowled beautifully and was justly rewared.

India are now in a good position, however the danger man for India is Gilchrist.IF Gilchrist goes early then India might well be able to bowl out Aus to a score below 400. .

 

[Tim]

Things may start to get quite heated in here soon...

 

[Salamuddin]

Zaheer Khan

While I wouldn't sing the praises of Zaheer just because he got a couple of wickets, I suspect that Bruce Reid has suggested a few things to him.

Against NZ (in the tests) and the TVS Cup, Zaheer seemed to be falling away at point of delivery. He seems to have corrected himself on what I've seen in the first test.

He also seems to have developed the ball coming back into the left hander (something that I haven't seen a great deal of from him in the past).

It will be interesting to follow the progress of Khan and Nehra over the summer. They are both talented lads and I'm sure they'll benefit quite greatly under Bruce's tutelage.

 

[Choora]

If rain continues, this match might end up as a draw:!( .
