Australia vs England ODI Series - 7 matches - Sep 4 to Sep 20

[King Pietersen]

Dimi bowling superbly at the minute. Any chance he can bowl 20 overs? Ravi might be worth a bowl on here.

Well made 50 by Ponting, good mixture of timing, power and placement. Rashid being smacked out of the attack, finally Clarke got a hold of him.

Over to the two medium pacers, good thing Collingwood isn't playing as that would be 3 medium pacers that would be slowing us down.

 

[Ollie_H]

Is Clarke batting too slowly?

 

[King Pietersen]

Bowling looking toothless again. What a surprise.

 

[Sureshot]

I personally think having Swann and Rash in the middle overs has potential for getting wickets in the middle overs.

 

[King Pietersen]

Colly would be a bonus as well tbh. He'd have been very handy on this track.

 

[Sureshot]

Yep. I don't think we should forget how well these two are batting and how good batsman they are either!

 

[aussie1st]

Much better strike rate from Clarke, having Ponting going at a run a ball helps. Really shows how bad the English batters stuffed up by gifting their wickets, this pitch has got nothing.

 

[Brook]

I wonder if Ponting is trying to put in a more impressive performance than Sachin's century the other day; he's certainly going for it.

 

[Howsie]

Bresnan is such a good bowler, he's actually someone England can work with.

 

[King Pietersen]

Hundred for Ponting. What a player. Been superb tonight.

 

[aussie1st]

Finally Ponting gets a ODI 100, been a long time between drinks but finally hes managed to stop throwing his wicket away. Well played.

There goes Clarke just not enough power on that one but it was there to hit. Much better innings.

 

[King Pietersen]

Mike Hussey and his stupid little beard are gone. We're still in this if we bowl well. Spose it helps that we've got a decent total on the board for once.

 

[aussie1st]

What on earth was that. Shocking stuff by Hussey, can't remember the last time he got out in that fashion.

Dimi almost grabs Ferguson too, that was a risky shot to get off the mark.

 

[Sureshot]

Great captaincy by Strauss here, very ballsy.
