Australia vs India

Re: Australia vs India

The Aussies were average last night and uncharacteristically poor with the disciples of bowling tightly in the final overs.
The wickeeper/captain from India has a very strong resolve about him.

What the hell happened to Bracken last night?

They really got a hold of him. It happens.

Re: Australia vs India

The umpiring was shocking. The bowlers dominated early on. Saw 2 lbw appeals against Tendulkar turned down . The second was as plumb as you could get. In between the those two he dangled his bat way outside his pads, got an definite inside edge through to Gilly but again the appeal was turned down.

Not sure if Ponting was given out stumped in a close call too.

This game was won before it started.

The Indians were on the business end of a pants down spanking today. 9 wickets in hand and 25 overs left is a comprehensive victory. We are now three one up with two to go.

Re: Australia vs India

The Aussies knocked up a huge score thanks to Symonds with support from Haddin, Hopes and Lee but the Indians have moved on at a cracking pace and are 70 without lost in the 13th over.
I reckon the Indians might win this if the openers can get through until the 20th over.

Re: Australia vs India

Aussie win.
Hogg and Johnson brought the Aussies back.
Someone needs to tell Sreesanth that if you talk the talk you need to walk the walk. Dropped Symonds early on and a fairly easy one.
Although Brett Lee's drop of Dhoni was worse, a real dolly.

The Aussies are struggling tonight. They dropped Hayen and moved Clarke to the top of the order. Clarke got a first ball blob as did Symonds.

So did Hogg but the ball clearly missed the bat without the need for replays or slow mo aids. Same ump that gave Tendulkar not out 3 times in an earlier game when clearly was. Cheat.

Thats 2 ducks for Clarke opening the batting. Hodge is useless.

I thought the Aussies would get pumped but just lost and probably should have won having them 6-64 at one stage.

Overall the Indians were well outclassed in this series but couldn't understand their arrogance.

Yes it was a funny game. Given the treatment of Symonds I suspect the Australian crowds will respond in an even more aggressive manner.

Re: Australia vs India

I watched to Twenty/20 last night and we got beaten with 11 balls to spare. Not a fan of the game but the crowd was just phenomenal. It was the most packed venue I have ever seen.
Ponting was in exciting form and Hayden looked real dangerous. Hidge failed to produce and I guess he will have his card marked so to speak.

I reckon we we 20 runs to light on last night.
