Third Test - Australia vs. West Indies

[El Diablo]

Hodge gone

still hasn't cemented his position

Pfft Hodge better than Clarke.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Can't see how it has anything to do with umpiring

just trying to put off the batsmen

not working though

:lol:

what exactly are they doing?

Hodge may nothave cemented it, but you don't have a whole lot of options - Symonds is in the side, and Lehmann and Martyn seem to be ruled out... Clarke needs to find his feet in first class cricket... Maybe Jaques in down the order...

 

[El Diablo]

you think that chirping got him out?

 

[El Diablo]

what exactly are they doing?

taling and yelling to each other as the bowler was running in

they were told to stop

 

[Tommy Smith]

Only one test match though. He deserves an extended run to prove himself like Clarke and Katich received.

 

[Balmain_Boy]

Chatting whilst the bowler is running in is not on.

Otherwise there shouldn't be a problem.

 

[El Diablo]

not saying he should be dropped just that so far he hasn't cemented a position like Hussey would of

 

[aussies1st]

I agree, chatting is fine but not when the bowler is bowling. Batsmen need to concentrate.

 

[El Diablo]

looks like they just got another lecture from Bowden and Dar

 

[Balmain_Boy]

Problem for Hodge was he looked patchy that whole innings.

 

[El Diablo]

he did in the first too

 

[JJ]

they'd better watch out, Billy will lay the slap down :lol:

 

[JJ]

If Dar had got the Hayden call right, this could be getting interesting

 

[aussies1st]

Don't worry Hussey would have saved us. He is perfect for these chases. He just needs a guy to stay in with him.

 

[El Diablo]

If Dar had got the Hayden call right, this could be getting interesting

we'll never know

may not have made a difference at all as each batsmen that's been dismissed so far would never of faced the ball they got out to

 

[Balmain_Boy]

Australia are going to get the runs. But it's great to see the Windies digging in and fighting hard. Maybe signs they are on the improve?

 

[sanjane]

If Dar had got the Hayden call right, this could be getting interesting

and what about the Sarwan, Smith and Ramdin ones..

???

Why is there no technology! It worked in the super series, why not here?

 

[El Diablo]

and what about the selective walker and Ponting decisions in the first innings?
