West Indies in Australia

[aussie1st]

Warne gets another. Ramdin won't be able to do much like this.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Watson didn't got a chance to bowl. Also Clarke is getting less bowls nowadays. Maybe cause of his back injury.

Warne gets another one. It will be an innings defeat.

 

[aussie1st]

Clarke's injury definitely has stopped him bowling but he wouldn't get too many.

The flipper gets Warne his 33rd 5 wicket haul. Great effort.

 

[satishmania]

its Warne and McGrath magic yet again..Watson has done very little so far in this match..

 

[ZexyZahid]

Warne gets another one! Another five wicket haul.

I hope Ponting chooses to push on the follow on.

 

[aussie1st]

Aus look like they will be batting again.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I hope not seeing the way Warne is bowling right now.

West Indies falls short of the follow-on target but looks like Aussies are taking a bat. :

 

[satishmania]

follow-on should have been enforced right away. probably ponting doesnt want australia to bat last and chase a big target...

 

[ZexyZahid]

Anyway this gives a good chance for the batsmen who didn't have a good first innings.

 

[aussie1st]

I heard the commentators say Ponting maybe scared that if Gayle or Lara find form, Aus could be chasing a huge total in the 4th inns.

Hussey gets his first 4 all run in test cricket. What a fast player he is.

 

[satishmania]

hussey should make the most of ponting's decision to bat..

 

[ZexyZahid]

Well Lara factor is surely in, because he had 31 runs and didn't deserve to be out as I read it.

And it's lunch now after two boundaries of Hussey.

 

[aussie1st]

And thats lunch for day 3. Only 1 over bowled and no this was not cause of the slow Windies over rate. :

Well Lara factor is surely in, because he had 31 runs and didn't deserve to be out as I read it.

And it's lunch now after two boundaries of Hussey.

Nope definitely didn't. Ball was clearly going down leg side.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Of which club is the stadium actually? And what is the reason of calling it the Gabba?

 

[adthomp]

onyl 2 reasons why ponting chose this

1 give the crowd some their money have 5 days of cricket not 3
2 we know Australia have problems chasing runs and its possible they can be beaten there uneatable defending runs
