Sri Lanka win the toss and elect to bowl. Wade to open with HAHAHA to bat at 3. Clarke out.

Weird the Cricinfo home page says Australia sent in but the commentary says Sri Lanka to bat.

:-/ might get absolutely rolled here...

I think Warner is due. He looked great in Sydney before copping a dodgy one and the pitch looks like a batting strip. And of course he won't be run out by HAHAHA for at least until wade gets out.

Get ready for the arse raping.

 

[BunniesMan]

With Clarkes absence I'm very glad to see Hughes promoted to #3. He has been formally acknowledged as the best batsman in this team besides Pup.

He is due for a big score.

And I think it's reasonable to call anything less than 70 a cheap dismissal

170*

Don't see the logic in promoting Wade.

 

[Hutty1986]

Wade to open, sent in & Sri Lanka in top form. Uh-oh...

 

[Hutty1986]

Opening with spin??

 

[vvvrulz]

Why the F is Dilshan opening the bowling.

Hughes opened last game. How the f**k is dropping down to 3 considered a promotion?

 

[some11]

Wade the flat track bully so far.

 

[BunniesMan]

Warner plodding.

If he doesn't start his natural game asap he'll get himself out.

Don't see the logic in promoting Wade.

Hughes was promoted to Clarkes #3. Wade was simply the least bad option to take Hughes' spot.

 

[some11]

:lol:

Yep. Warner is useless if he doesn't play his natural game.

Hughes time.

 

[Earl]

We are in dire straights if our best batsmen is Hughes.

He has scored 7 runs in his last 3 matches.

Darsh 2.0

DA Warner b Dilshan 10 (18b 1x4 0x6) SR: 55.55

Ok maybe that's why.

 

[Canard]

Not even watching the game (Im at work) but Hughes looks shaky already.........

 

[8Ball]

Hughes plodding.
