This match is at Sydney, so I believe that has a spinning pitch or not?

 

[McLOVIN]

i dont know what to do any more after the 2nd test! this is really confusing!

 

[Abhas]

Could see new faces in this dead rubber. Tricky selection.

Very tricky one indeed, we may have to discuss this!!!

 

[SciD]

Who the hell are Aussie bowlers in this match?

I have funny feeling on Hayden as well.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I am reading now that Bollinger took 5 five-wicket hauls at the SCG. If I had known that I would have included him in my team.

Ponting has a great record at the SCG, but I was doubting about him, Smith, Kallis or Steyn. I decided finally to not take him.

Typical pick Punter and hes out for a duck!

 

[WestIndian]

Typical pick Punter and hes out for a duck!

Saw it but still cannot believe it!!!!! I mean a century, and missed another by 1 run and today first ball, golden duck!!!

 

[ZexyZahid]

This is just great. I took Ponting again in the team and he is out for a duck. Clarke is going good, but I don't have him as a bonus player.

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

I clearly remeber, i had Johny boy as captain but just now found i have Punter WTF :

 

[ZexyZahid]

You've taken the whole Australian team. : You do know that South Africa won the first two matches and that there are performers among that team?

 

[Akash00]

This will be a great match for me, I guess. Having Katich, Clarke as bonus. Don't have Punter in my team. Smith as captain, so it's all going fine for me till now.

 

[SciD]

:boxing
Ponting seems to love scoring droughts when me or Syl pick him.
Whats worse hes my captain. Time to grab 10 catches.

 

[ZexyZahid]

The bad thing is that he can gain another duck in the second innings. If you have him as captain you would get then -120 points.
