2nd Test: Australia v India at Sydney Jan 3-7, 2012

[Fast Eddie]

He didn't want the pressure of trying to get 400. Probably would have choked in the 390's. Plus just doing some stat padding.

 

[Canard]

If India win this from here needing 470 odd runs and to bowl out Australia, then it want be anything to do with the decleration.

It will go down in history as one of the greatest sporting wins of all time.

Good call from Clarke for mine, its just crazy to say that its dumb, bad or otherwise.

Going to have to change your bait or spot mate..

 

[Hallatia]

I think the declaration was a very good move and petty well timed. And I am a huge fan of declarations when used strategically

Jesus christ it has nothing to do with the possibility of losing the game, he had the chance to score 400 and Hussey 200 and in doing so all it would have done would have strengthened their position.

Mateo is fat.

His wallet is.

 

[skeepe]

1/622 since Cowan fell.

 

[BunniesMan]

1/622 since Cowan fell...Sack Warner, Cowan and Marsh now.

 

[Horrie Is God]

Will we see "Magic Arm Clarkie" late in India's innings??..

 

[hineyrulz]

His wallet is.

His wallet is almost as large as his mistake rate.

 

[MSIH]

What a knock from the legend. Bit disappointed at the declaration, from a selfish point of view.

People will still hate on the man, but it will hurt them every time they see the record books. 329*. Sublime.
