Test Series v India

[Jeba]

Not sure I like the idea of playing 4 quicks in Sydney, as has been reported. I would think that would be at the expense of Lyon, and the SCG has traditionally favoured the spinners.

Harris is a good bowler but at the end of the day I reckon he's just going to have to count himself unlucky.

Madness to play 4 quicks at the scg. Especially with Harris not bowling that well and very short of first class bowling.

 

[Coxy]

Harris should be 12th man. End of discussion

 

[Steve Ward]

India are 1/2 well bowling Patterson

Dominant morning for the Aussies got then 4/72. Pattinson with 3 of the wickets

Interesting that Hilfenhaus is struggling yet again on the SCG. Has his moments, but he's looked least likely to snare a breakthrough.

He hasn't really bowled poorly just had very little luck. Seems to be bowling a bit too short this test so far.

Huilfenhus on a hat trick I don't think he is struggling

 

[Coxy]

He was to that point. He needed me to bag him to fire up.

Nice one brother

He has a role in this team and he's executing it beautifully. He's not there to take a bagful, he's there to be threatening with the new rock (which he was) and then move into a containment/pressure building role.

 

[Steve Ward]

Lyon needs a bagging

 

[ningnangnong]

Haha, and now Zaheer's on a hattie.

 

[Steve Ward]

Pup and ponting on fire go you good things

 

[Bucking Beads]

C'mon boys keep making runs.

 

[Coxy]

I think they need to. Realistically, the SCG is a horrible place to chase any total of note. I'd say a 200 lead is a minimum requirement at this point.

 

[Bucking Beads]

I hope we just bat and bat and bat. The runs will come quick IMO

Please retire, Ricky. At least now we can remember you with some fondness.
