Floodlit match at TD,Melbourne : Match start scheduled 03.15 GMT.

Australia team: (from)
*RT Ponting, DR Martyn, PA Jaques, MJ Clarke, A Symonds,
MEK Hussey, +BJ Haddin, JR Hopes, B Lee, BR Dorey, GD McGrath,
GB Hogg, SR Clark, SM Katich, NW Bracken.

South Africa team: (from)
*GC Smith, HH Dippenaar, JA Rudolph, HH Gibbs, AG Prince,
JM Kemp, +MV Boucher, SM Pollock, AJ Hall, JJ van der Wath,
J Botha, GJP Kruger, M Zondeki, CK Langeveldt, DW Steyn.

Gilly has been rested. Haddin comes in as the keeper.
Interesting to see if SA recover from the loss to SL.
Smith needs a big score soon.

What abt your favorite van der Wath ??

HEHE - Boy u r so dumb and act lke an immature kid

justforkix · « **Reply #4 on:** January 19, 2006, 08:49:31 PM »

To answer your Q, IMO, he will not be in the playing XII

gouravk · « **Reply #5 on:** January 19, 2006, 09:25:04 PM »

Whats so dumb abt that ?? You cant take a little banter yourself ??

We are all gentlemen here...respect folks!

justforkix · « **Reply #7 on:** January 19, 2006, 11:27:24 PM »

HUH. well IMO, calling van der wath my favorite player is dumb because I had given no indication to that effect in either of the two DGs.

Look who's talking about not able to take banter

Anyways forget it. Henceforth, will discuss only cricket.

gouravk · « **Reply #8 on:** January 20, 2006, 12:20:15 AM »

Yes, of course you didnt say he is your favorite player, I made that up. Thats what made it banter. Otherwise it would have been pure fact.

justforkix · « **Reply #9 on:** January 20, 2006, 01:03:56 AM »

OK. u r not dumb and u r not acting like an immature kid.

anywayz, as i said earlier, he won't be in the XI.For Aus, if Doery is playing, wonder if Lee or McGrath is rested ? Will aus do that with the VB series being tight.

Damiend Martn opening will also be interesting. Allows Clarke to come at 4, which is probably the right position for him.

gouravk · « **Reply #10 on:** January 20, 2006, 01:19:56 AM »

Not quite been able to follow whats going on in the series too closely so far. So not quite up to date with whos in form and all that. But for me of great interest to day will be the 2 ranji trophy semis along with the aus game

martyn gets the aussies off to a flier !! 4 off the first ball

gouravk · « **Reply #13 on:** January 20, 2006, 03:25:08 AM »

this guy steyn has a bit of something in him, quite liked what i saw of him

gouravk · « **Reply #14 on:** January 20, 2006, 03:29:32 AM »

the aussies turning it on here - 17/0 in 2 and a half

gouravk · « **Reply #15 on:** January 20, 2006, 03:30:41 AM »

OUT ! spoke too early, martyn trying to over attack ??

Teddy · « **Reply #16 on:** January 20, 2006, 03:31:03 AM »

Pollock to Martyn, out Bowled!! Once again gives him the charge, this was pitched just outside off, good length, Martyn swings hard at it, gets a thick edge to the stumps, Martyn's over-aggression has brought his downfall! D Martyn b S Pollock 11(9) 4s-2 6s-0

Cool

we will know how he bats - i.e. like kemp....

Unfortunately he may not bowl unless a bowler gets injured or bowls badly and is super-subbed

jfk: here i am.. how are u today sir. (sing like "where is thumbkin"). Yea this place is active

gouravk · « **Reply #19 on:** January 20, 2006, 03:56:43 AM »

hmmm .. a series with 12 league matches can be prety boring

justforkix · « **Reply #20 on:** January 20, 2006, 03:57:01 AM »

HEHE - welcome, losing - u have a welcome thread too created by teddy

gourav - my fav player's full name is Johannes Jacobus van der Wath

gouravk · « **Reply #21 on:** January 20, 2006, 03:59:37 AM »

he seems pretty old to make his debut ... at 28

justforkix · « **Reply #22 on:** January 20, 2006, 04:16:39 AM »

Also - ordinary record. seems more of a bowler who can bat rather than an all rounder.

Sahir · « **Reply #23 on:** January 20, 2006, 04:16:59 AM »

Some heat on that stroke from Symonds

losingnow · « **Reply #24 on:** January 20, 2006, 04:19:13 AM »

losingnow · « **Reply #33 on:** January 20, 2006, 04:29:41 AM »

the sequence of last few deliveries..
4,4,4,4,nb+1,nb,wd,W,4..4. Amazing

gouravk · « **Reply #34 on:** January 20, 2006, 04:29:48 AM »

this steyn guy has some talent. i saw him bowl a gem of a delivery to michael vaughan last year.

justforkix · « **Reply #35 on:** January 20, 2006, 04:30:51 AM »

Jacques just a 100 in the last 1st class match he played. yep looks in great touch.

but what an over from Steyn. 24 runs and a wicket

Good that Symonds is out for 7
