A few more questionable knocks from either Katich or Martyn, Jacques will be in.

Australia win the toss and bat first again

McGrath and Pollock are out.

Isnt anyone watching this carnage?

justforkix · « **Reply #6 on:** February 05, 2006, 05:12:45 AM »

Yeah. I am watching perhaps the historic event of 400 runs being scored. SAF might beat India to this record

justforkix · « **Reply #7 on:** February 05, 2006, 05:13:45 AM »

WOW - Symonds out

but Smith takes the wicket

dextrous · « **Reply #8 on:** February 05, 2006, 05:18:06 AM »

why isnt pollock playing

justforkix · « **Reply #9 on:** February 05, 2006, 05:25:06 AM »

some bruise. probably just pissed off that he and boucher is being sent in so late every match

dhruvdeepak · « **Reply #10 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:02:24 AM »

400 anyone??

dextrous · « **Reply #11 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:03:27 AM »

I'm thinking more like 360

justforkix · « **Reply #12 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:07:30 AM »

very tough now. 144 in 11 needed to get to 400. This record is safe for us to achieve tomorrow

My guess is 340. If Hussey gets going, even 375 is not out of reach

justforkix · « **Reply #13 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:11:00 AM »

Clarke and Martyn are wasting balls here. Poor Hussey. He must be given more overs.

dhruvdeepak · « **Reply #14 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:11:14 AM »

WOOHOO clarke out, hussey in!

justforkix · « **Reply #15 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:12:37 AM »

Hussey needs to play a blinder and Hall has to get 3 more wickets here

Hussey CAREER : Average 102, Strike rate 96 !!!!

Ian Chappell just gave SG's great offdrives a mention, comparing hussey to it.

fierce debate amongst some friends here on whether either of SRT or Viroo should open at all. cocktails add to the drama.

Sahir's chances goin down the drain

justforkix · « **Reply #26 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:28:49 AM »

There is GOD and then there is Hussey !!!

dhruvdeepak · « **Reply #27 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:31:53 AM »

i wouldnt go that far

but definitely, first there is God, then there is Hussey's batting averageS.
i say 375 is on.

BANG BANG BANG HOLEY COW huge 6!

smart bowling at death!

justforkix · « **Reply #29 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:44:20 AM »

Yup. but the damage has already been done.

dhruvdeepak · « **Reply #30 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:45:00 AM »

dude, this game is over. all that matters now is the fantasy competition

justforkix · « **Reply #31 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:47:03 AM »

Yea. Hopefully Smith will have some sense to play Boucher at 4 or 5 instead of those tortoises - Prince and Rudolph

Sahir · « **Reply #32 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:51:02 AM »

Does not matter who Smith sends up now-- they will all srumble under the pressure of the chase, on an SCG pitch that usually turns a bit later

Sahir · « **Reply #33 on:** February 05, 2006, 06:53:38 AM »

Must say what a brilliantly unselfish effort at the second run on the last ball-- I dare say you will rarely see an Indian worried about his averages doing that sort of thing

hahh, so much for volkswagen van der wath. gave 82 last game and 76 this time.
good replacement for kallis.
graeme smith must be tearing his hair out, he's playing with a south africa 'a' team

Sahir · « **Reply #36 on:** February 05, 2006, 07:06:07 AM »

I hope Smith uses van der Wath, Botha, and Pollock as the pinch-hitters, for my fantasy team's benefit

can't send Pollock. he's not playing because of a bruise !!! Hope they send Gibbs at 3 and Boucher at 4

The way Smith is batting, he deserves to play only for South Africa A.
