Australian Tour of India, October 2010/11

[aussie1st]

Poor by Hussey, his innings had no purpose and our score went no where. Now we are 5 down for 200 odd. North well the usual rubbish from him.

 

[Meet]

End of day:
Aus-224/5
Hope we get some early wickets tomorrow morning

North can gtfo of the test side.

It has been Watson all day. Wow, I'm loving the way he has carried himself today. Earlier he would just perish after playing put so many quiet overs. He has shown a fantastic temperament in this innings. Would love to see him go far tomorrow.

Though, credit to Indians especially Ojha and Zaheer for bowling very well. Ponting and Watson were looking for a much better score with the position they were in really.

Why is he even there actually? Don't Australia have any alternative to him?

 

[LongLegs?]

And people were saying that Zaheer's "peak form" had come to an end. Rubbish.

 

[sami ullah khan]

Zaheer will always be a handful with an old reversing ball as Aussies have found out today.

 

[Biggy]

He'll score another 2 ducks then a ton and keep his spot.:sarcasm

 

[sami ullah khan]

^You mean he will do a Cook.

 

[AkshayS]

a good day comes to an end, Watson was the hero of the day. Superbly carried his innings. Ponting was good too.

and Well done Zak, we should get some early wickets tomorrow.

 

[angryangy]

Zaheer's always been injury prone, so his "best" isn't a matter of how good he is, it's about how many games he can string together.

 

[aussie1st]

^You mean he will do a Cook.

Nah it's a North, he is the king of it. Everytime his neck is on the line he will do just enough to keep his spot.

 

[razahood]

whoo Australia managed just 224 in whole day of 90 overs.Did India keep it tight or Australians were over conscious?

 

[Gaurav_7]

Both.

Quite a few, just the selectors love North too much. Smith is one option, Hughes another and then there is Khawaja and Ferguson waiting in the wings. And of course if we get desperate David Hussey, Klinger or even ask Hodge to come out of retirement.

 

[razahood]

No i don't think they should go for Hodge again call Ferguson or Klinger they are better choices
