Australia tour of West Indies

[WestIndian]

Ok 4 down Katich gone, still alot of runs on the board and I would expect Symonds to push things on and at the same time giving us a few chances. I wonder what Punter looking at as a final total to give us to chase.

I'm inclined to keep Jacques considering he's a proven performer against India. Plus he's proven in the domestic game he has the ability to perform. Mind you i shouldn't be complaining about Casson's position. After all i am an India supporter. Sure drop Katich and keep Casson and Johnson. Maybe Hayden needs to be "retained" for the Ashes series and Katich seemingly forgotten by selectors.

Well it looks like we can bowl them out after all. They yet to bring up their 400 and have already lost 2 very quick wickets this morning.:happy

 

[SciD]

I expect Lee to score quick 50.

Big Ben getting the ball to turn quite a bit now.

 

[WestIndian]

Hey I find the Aussies are finding it very difficult to score, they just don't seems to to able to get Benn or Bravo away for any runs.

 

[Gilly Fan]

We need to start attacking now. I know we're leading by 408, but remember back 5 years ago when they chased the World Record score to beat us. We don't want that happening again.

Especially with the form Chanderpaul is in.

As I speak, Haddin dances and hits hard down the ground for 4.

Last post before bed:

Australia can't win this test, but the Windies definitely have a chance with Chanderpaul. Even with a lead of 500 Gayle and Chanderpaul will get big hundreds and guide them home. In the case doesn't happen the rain will come to save them.

I put all my vcash on that happening.

A huge hit down the ground by Haddin for 6 which dents the blinds in the site screen.

Geez, they're getting reverse swing with a 130 over old ball.

Thats the whole idea of not changing the ball.

If Katich gets a double century here, then what happens with selection when we go to India? Both Katich and Hayden have proven records in India and Jaques doesn't.

Drop Hussey

Benn getting all these chances to bowl at Australia and the conditions are getting better for him he has a good chance to get ahead of Jaggernauth.

 

[Gilly Fan]

Brad Haddin is blasting the Windies all around the ground. He now has his highest test score.

Thats the whole idea of not changing the ball.

I think it's so the ball is harder to hit as it is soft. A new ball would be crisp and nice and hard. It would be easier to hit.

 

[Gilly Fan]

Oh my god, 3rd dropped catch this innings. This time it's Haddin.

What the hell is going on!?!?!

Gilly Fan added 21 Minutes and 31 Seconds later...

Finally a catch is taken! Brett Lee has safe hands. Big wicket of Gayle who goes for 26.

Chris Gayle what are you doing, when hos team needs him to play a sensible innings he plays all these attacking shots. Good bowling from Clark, nice little spell.

Time for Ronnie to make a double ton.
