West Indies tour of Australia, November-December 2009

[Dutch]

Add Ponting as well.

And much of cricket history!!

Poor from Sarwan, could have just left that and gone to lunch. They have now put serious pressure on the inexperienced middle order.

Thats what I am saying. Dravid, Kallis, Ponting and a few other would have just defended the over and gone in. Its not like its his 1st tour for fearsome tweak sakes.

post fixed.

What the hell is wrong with Johno and Bolly?

They're great.

this is the closest WI is going to get to victory and they're going to throw it away

I actually liked Watson, felt sorry for the dude for all the injuries that he had put up with but after this. No respect for him. Only Clarke, Hussey and Katich now. Sad to say really 3/11.

Watson carries on a bit in the face of Gayle after the dismissal, jumping up and down with a stupid look on his face.

Slats just talking about Hughes maybe batting at 3

I can understand the hate for Johnson, I' not fond of him either. Added with the pies he gets wickets with plsu he has that douchy air about him.

 

[aussie1st]

Well if they don't want to move the openers then I'm sure Hughes could slot into 3.

Hughes IIRC played at 3 in the T20 Big Bash and the FRC last year for a bit, he could adjust I reckon. George Bailey otherwise.

spot on, just forgot to add the super faggy labret piercing and his ugly horse face.

 

[TumTum]

How could he find #3 difficult anyway?

Unless he likes the new ball where bowler's spray it around much more.

Ahahaha Simon O'Donnell getting smashed on his debut by Viv, great watch

I think trying to judge players characters is in itself a bad attitude. It's too easy to hold them to unrealistic standards and it always seems like better players are allowed to be worse people anyway. Besides, if Watson hadn't made a goose of himself, what would there be to laugh at?

But he did.

I'd rather not have a guy with Hughes' temperament at 3. He's way too inexperienced to playing there - you need a guy who can adapt to the situation at number 3, if the pressure is on I can't see Hughes playing it safe. It'd be better to slot him at 6 and have him counter attack.

I'm starting to think that Cameron White might be the man for that role though. There's a big question over who will be our next captain, and I wonder if White would be a good option. He needs to have time to cement his spot first, but he's a world class skipper - brilliant with the bowlers and his field settings. He could definitely bat at 3 too. Time to drop Hussey I think and bring in White. Give Clarke the number 4 he wants, let Watson keep his momentum as an opener going and play White at 6.

 

[Cricketdude]

Is white a good enough bat though?
