Wrong. Vaughan was replaced by Ian Bell. Collingwood came in favored over Bell.Dasa said:
Great comeback by Hussey. I'm glad to see him scoring runs for Australia. I just hope that Clown gets a chance to make an impact on the match.

This reminds me of some of the innings in the Ashes when Australia was in the field. The bowing isn't THAT bad, and the batting isn't THAT good, but absolutely nothing is going the way of the bowling team, it's a dead flat pitch and the batsmen are playing well enough to keep the scoreboard moving.

Great ton by Huss.

Wow, he's done it. Great to see MEK get what he deserves, especially after waiting so long. Hopefully they'll keep him in the side now.

Nice century for Matty Hayden as well. He's been in amazing form recently.

In terms of local series, I think I'd have to go back to '96 against Sri Lanka for cricket as boring as this, although that series did have a chucking scandal in the middle of it to keep people awake. The weather's dull, there's little atmosphere, the play's been stop-start, and there's no contest. I think I've seen more exciting games of bocce down by the Oakleigh railway tracks.
Hussey's done little wrong here, and while this century won't be particularly remembered, he may have given the selectors something to think about for when Langer returns to the side. You can only play the opposition you're presented with. I guess he'll be hoping Hodge doesn't make a double century (in which case, Clarke will get very nervous - unless he does too).
Anyhow, well done once more to Corey Collymore - he's shown some very good discipline and has been extremely solid on a flat pitch against batsmen having little to no trouble with the rest of the attack.

they've dropped century makers before, e.g. martin love.
The next test is in Adelaide, where you bat first everytime if you win the toss. Personally I'd think of having the same line-up only with langer in for hodge and hussey moved down to 5. Of course if Clarke fails again then he could be the one.....

Yes, but the side was very settled then, and its far from the case at the moment. Hodge is making his debut, Symonds is playing his third test and Hussey his second. Any one of those three could be dropped for Langer, really.
