Wow - Lee steeming in and Jaya hitting him for SIX over point.
mouth watering prospect on offer!

Ricky Ponting says Sanath Jayasuriya and Co. can expect a barrage of short-pitched deliveries from Brett Lee.

"We'll use some changes of pace through the innings and Sanath can expect some short stuff as well. It's important we start the game off well, they're a very good front-running side and when they get started they can be hard to peg back with bat and ball so we've got to start really well," Ponting told AFP. "You can't afford to give him width, (Kumar) Sangakkara is similar as well in that they're very strong square of the wicket. And Adelaide Oval, the way it is, you've got to look to bowl pretty straight."

Australia team: (from)
+AC Gilchrist, SM Katich, *RT Ponting, DR Martyn, A Symonds,
MJ Clarke, MEK Hussey, B Lee, GB Hogg, NW Bracken, SR Clark,
JR Hopes, ML Lewis, BR Dorey.

Sri Lanka team: (from)
*MS Atapattu, ST Jayasuriya, +KC Sangakkara, DPMD Jayawardene,
J Mubarak, TM Dilshan, CK Kapugedera, WPUJC Vaas,
M Muralitharan, CRD Fernando, PDRL Perera, CM Bandara,
KMDN Kulasekara, WCA Ganegama, WU Tharanga, RP Arnold,
MG Vandort.

Jaya and Pattu to open after winning the toss.

Wide ball to start off - Lee on fire.

Teddy · « **Reply #2 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:19:10 AM »

Big shout turned down.
Harper - good call.

Teddy · « **Reply #3 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:21:47 AM »

Chappell (Ian) wants SL to see off Lee

I say hoist him over point! - come on Jaya.

Bracken to share the new ball with Lee.

Teddy · « **Reply #4 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:24:34 AM »

A great diving stop by Clarke!
A definite 4 saved; followed by a wide ball.

Pattu looks in good touch - final leg is up for Bracken.

Teddy · « **Reply #5 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:33:34 AM »

Superb SIX from Jaya - over long on !

good shot off Clark!

Teddy · « **Reply #6 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:41:15 AM »

Good maiden over from Lee - had Pattu in all sorts of trouble.

Beat him couple of times - Pattu lucky to surive thru the over - he lives to play another over!

Clark to continue - Jaya on strike.

Teddy · « **Reply #7 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:45:47 AM »

A good shot from Pattu - after 2 maidens in a row.
A FOUR to break the shackles and get some breathing space.

Teddy · « **Reply #8 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:47:17 AM »

Harper just poked Jaya's eyes - must have shoved a contacts or something.

SL got their SS dead right - Bandara to bowl.

Teddy · « **Reply #9 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:51:39 AM »

Symonds,Clarke,Hussey compared to Arnold,Dilshan,New guy - that is where the difference lies according to comms - a fair call.

A solid pull shot from Pattu!

Teddy · « **Reply #10 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:53:05 AM »

Clark is coming in for some treatment here - another one lofted by Jaya for 4!

Bowling change in the offing perhaps - Bracken ?

Teddy · « **Reply #11 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:54:17 AM »

Yes, Indeed - Bracken is back - the lefty !

interesting to see if he will swing the ball back to the right handed Pattu.
Jaya is on strike at the moment.

thx teddy, looks like sahir is updating alone at the other place...wouldn't it be better if he were just here

Teddy · « **Reply #13 on:** February 10, 2006, 03:57:26 AM »

yep - half the fun is gone without Jaya..

dextrous · « **Reply #17 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:03:38 AM »

decent start, they just have to keep scoring, even if its singles and such...if by 40 overs they reach 220ish, they can hit the pedal...

did i say i love seeing the aussies lose?

Teddy · « **Reply #18 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:04:11 AM »

super shot from Pattu - a good one to backward point!

let us say we like a competitive match! good running between the wickets.
The bigman needs to fire - Pattu ! Sanga has to come to the party
the pitch looks fat ! so should be a good one.
Moody looks on...

poondu · « **Reply #20 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:15:14 AM »

looks like they dont make the slazenger bats anymore . I dont remember seeing one for the past 7-8 years or even more

Teddy · « **Reply #21 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:17:34 AM »

Symonds into the attack - very interesring move. Gilly standing up!

they def. do...i own one...altho i prefer gunn and moore

Teddy · « **Reply #23 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:19:30 AM »

decent start by the islanders; 65/1 in 14 overs ; match well balanced at this stage.
will be interesting to see how one team will pull ahead; Ponting is waiting for a kill i reckon.

bad line punished - 4 to Pattu off Roy!

dhruvdeepak · « **Reply #24 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:37:44 AM »

looks like no one's posting on either DG!

dhruv,
how the hell did u get to -4?!!

personally, with india-pak matches going on, i only can afford to spend so much time watching the other games--have to do work on some nights at least

dhruvdeepak · « **Reply #26 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:42:09 AM »

hah, i hear you. bu yeah, this is 4 nights straight of cricket this weekend. if you count friday, and monday morning as your weekend

i dont, but will manage

Teddy · « **Reply #28 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:46:20 AM »

great going by the islanders

just 1 wicket down after 20 overs.

Without mcgrath, the aussies (including Lee ) look orphaned.

Clark reminds me of Aggy every minute. Symonds is Roy.

oh my.. Hogg is bowling.

can they really win the wc with this bowling and the Ashes?

dunno

I think we need to get rid of this "smite" business.
only applaud can stay !

Hey Dexo what say you - just leave applaud and take out smite !

100 up for the islanders;

Pattu nearing well made 50!

Sanga doing the support business well.

i really love the music snippets in this production of the VB series, very tasteful.

dhruvdeepak · « **Reply #36 on:** February 10, 2006, 04:56:48 AM »

nice sedate batting by SL here, very sensible.
I had set SL 275+ as an excellent total, but with the boundaries brought in so much, you never know. They'll probably need more.
Attapattu and Sanga milking the bowling so easily. Pressure's of. What you going to Ricky?
