Australia's Tour of India - 7 ODI's

[Howsie]

Love watching Johnson bat, hopefully he's able to get a few over the rope.

 

[Spinksy]

The 50s are coming thick and fast for White now. Well played and hopefully he can really up his strike rate.

Seconded, Hussey with fifty.

Hopes run out though, such a shame because he looked to fire.

 

[SaiSrini]

We have played on flat tracks for most of the last few games. When we played the WI on a lively track, we were already out of the series. This is what is going to happen in the future where our bowling attack tries to restrict as much as possible and everything is left to the batsmen to win or lose games.

Disappointing way for Hopes to get out he was looking good. It brings Johnson to the crease, lets see if he can show why he should be opening.

Provided he's given a chance to bat. Hussey's driving to home now though, 2 fours in a row off Sharma's bowling. Looks good.

A Hussey master class going on, what timing and placement from those two cover drives.

 

[Spinksy]

Johnson getting started now. 9 (5), needs to stay in more than anything though.

Pretty funny that there was an article the other day about the selectors having to think seriously about Mike Hussey's future.

Dayuum. What a six!

Huss' can "Wooooo" all he likes with shots like that.

 

[aussie1st]

Holly crap that deserves 12, out of the ground!

 

[CricketPunk]

Wow what a shot, 300 on the cards now.

 

[Spinksy]

28 runs in 8 balls would be pretty epic from Hussey here. I really cannot see it happening though.

Why did Dhoni think bowling Kumar at the death was a good idea?

Didn't read it but assuming it was for Test. But its not the best way to judge a player for his Test spot, Hussey is brilliant in ODIs and his ODI spot wasn't under threat. Of course if he failed in this ODI series there could have been problems for him.

Excellent knock from Hussey comes to an end. And despite his drop in pace Sharma has bowled well.

because hes a mediocre captain at best who was fortunate to hit a purple
patch resulting in the media hyping him up as the next best thing !
