Pattinson vs Dravid will be interesting, Dravid who is in great touch looked uncomfortable facing youngsta beauty. Would have been fun if Raina played

The late wicket will give us some heart. Its a sunny day here, will be brilliant for batting.
We need Patto and Sidde bowling phaast this morning and try to get into the tail, otherwise it could be a long day for us.
On a side note i was going to go today with my mum but she refused to go because Dravid is batting :)))

Cant wait to have Pattinson, Cummins, Siddle, Watto as a bowling attack.
But apparently no Cummins until the WI tour and Watto wont be fit for Sydney Test. Sigh.

Argh Dravid is batting? Great. Hopefully he goes early and then he can wrap things up. Come on AUS!

Laxman is crucial..When in song Laxman actually plays with a strike of 70 odd in tests...dravid can peacefully do his job!!
KingKhanWC
27th December 2011, 22:28
Aussies were a bit unlucky on day two. If they keep up the same intensity they could restrict India to not much more than their total. Clarke needs to keep the pacers on and not let Indians settle against Lyons.
Still backing Aussies to win the test.

Speaking of Nightwatchmen.. Take this scenario, you know you will almost likely lose another wicket, the wickets doing all kinds of things, 4 balls to go, or a wicket will end the day... Who would you send out? I'd send out Chris Martin.

Sometimes i must miss something. Both of these guys are prime candidates for the short ball, Siddle loves bowling short and he is fired up.

He is a good bowler for English conditions, not so great out here. Looks to be going better than last summer where he bowled way outside off all day.

11 overs.
Every Indian has some type of worry against the short ball, including Dravid which we saw yesterday. Siddle is the best bumper bowler out there.

Kohli vs. Aussie sledging will be the most interesting battle of the series IMO. He loses it in the most innocuous of confrontations. Will be interesting to see how he reacts to the in your face Aussie approach. I reckon they'll also be targeting him and go out of their way to wind him up.

The Hilf can do a Bresnan job for Australia when the faster and better bowlers are injured.
KingKhanWC
27th December 2011, 22:50
This is where Shane Watson would have been very handy, he is very good with the old ball. Aus pacers need to save some energy for the new cherry but also need to attack. Tough call for Clarke.

You have to have some kind of variety. Even though he doesn't test the Indians in first innings. If India are batting on day 5 on a broken pitch he will become threatning. A bit like Swann at the Oval day 5 in the summer.

This is incredibly hypocritical due to the fact that Tim Bresnan, a tail ender averaged over 60 against India on green top pitches.

Dhoni's having a terrible year with the bat. He'd be under a lot more pressure had he not scored that century v West Indies in the last series. Mind you in that innings he was caught out three times but Kemar Roach forgot to plant his front foot inside the line.

Its going to be very difficult for him here with that technique. All bottom hand and no footwork on bouncy pitches = catching practice.

Wow the umpiring is not going our way at all. There has to be a psychological component to umpiring with DRS and then umpiring without it.
Ashwin doesnt keep the short ball down.

From twitter.
From his first inns - 148 away to Pak in Jan 2006. RT @AltCricket STAT-ATTACK: MS Dhoni has just one century in his 35 Tests outside India.
Wow, That is just sad for a guy who has played so many test matches. :|
