Australia's Tour Of India - 2008

Can A.Mishra bat?I didnot see A.Mishra's batting in IPL!!

Australia bowling at a grand over rate of 12.5 overs an hour. Just pointing it out in case this match goes into the fag end of Day 5 and time is running out. Ponting has been a "serial offender" of over rate, as well, but the ICC referees seem to have no problems with that.

Session 1 for India, Session 2 for Australia. Exciting cricket again! Johnson is the revelation as always....

There is bounce in this wicket, but no movement whatsoever. With Ponting not willing to risk White, we wont know how the wicket would behave for the spinners. It will be interesting how the rest of the day pans out.

Yes, I heard he's a pretty decent bat. In fact, he started off as a batsman before he turned into a leg spinner.

He doesnt even have the spinners to bring it under control (coz they leak too many runs). And his fast bowlers take lot of time to get their overs in.

Did the pitch do anything when M.Clarke was bowling??

Australia captain Ricky Ponting rubbished the remark that his side was defensive in the Bangalore Test, saying it is the India's way of psyching themselves up.India pacer Zaheer Khan, the man of the match in the first Test, had dubbed the visiting team as "the most defensive Australian team" to tour India in recent times.

Why this pre-match when the match is going on, and everybody is not even thinking abt it?

Sachin Tendulkar, what a gun. One of the best ever to have played the game, and deserves all the credit he gets. What a legend. Great on the Aussie blokes to go up to him and shake his hand. Fireworks in the day time. lol. Well done Sachin.

Record Broken !!!!

Congrats Sachin....
18 years...
Alomst 12,000 runs...
Still a big one here is required....

 

[aussie1st]

Congrats to Tendulkar well deserved record as highest run scorer in Test cricket. Poor Siddle writing was on the wall that he would be the one of give Tendulkar the ball to get the run.

 

[SaiSrini]

Congrats 'Little Master'. You're a gem! Thanks for all those memories... The toughest day of our lives will be when we see you leave.

Ganguly seems more fired up after Sachin's record. We need a big partnership here from you two, guys
