Super Eight

[Raghav]

Gilchrist has been outstanding with the gloves so far, made 2 or 3 good takes down the leg side.

Poor guy..he needs to correct for the tait mistakes

JAYASURIYA GONE, love you Bracks.

 

[Raghav]

Good toss to win for SRL and they rightly opted to bat to put pressure on AUS with some good hitting

 

[Perm]

Bracken gets Jayasuriya, plumb LBW. He was looking quite good to, shame for Sri Lanka.

 

[pasag]

Bracken you gun. There's the game.

 

[pup11]

Take that Raghav!!

 

[andyc]

Great ball from Bracken, no doubt about that one. Just need Tait to get it sorted; I really need him to get a wicket here.

 

[pup11]

Superb over from Bracks (the unsung hero of Australian cricket).

 

[simmy]

One wicket and Sri Lanka are really in trouble. Jaya is some gunny (yes that is a word) batsman and will severely dent SL chances of 300.

pup11 should have 500 posts in these thread by the time this game is finished, he has 478 already.

 

[pasag]

My words coming true...SRL will score over 280 and AUS will fall short..Thats for sure

Dying to win just to shut you up tbh.

Yeah he really is useful. But yet the nutter Tait gets all the attention.

How many have I got?

This is why Australia need to play 5 bowlers with Watson out. Tait is bowling puss so we may very well need 15 overs or more from Symonds and Clarke. Symonds and Clark should be used just in case Tait/Johnson have a bad day at the office really, not be relied upon to act as a genuine bowler between themselves AND do that.

Pidge replaces Taito in the attack, expecting Taito to bounce back well in his 2nd spell.

Yeah agree, shows how vital Watson was to the side.

and YES!!! McGrath you son of a gun.

 

[Jono]

Sanga out.

 

[andyc]

Looked too high for me first up, but meh. A wicket's a wicket.

Hawkeye says it was just missing, no real problems with it on the replay though, Sangakkara had no idea

 

[simmy]

Dar... gives it. Looked plumb to me.

 

[Perm]

Sangakarra gone LBW to McGrath's second delivery. I thought it was going over TBH.
