Doherty>>>>>>>>>>>>>Hauritz

 

[hineyrulz]

Doherty has two, not the smartest shot i have seen.

 

[Gidley Up]

Doherty is having a good debut, but he's a no better bowler than Michael Clarke.

 

[Meth]

wow

 

[Bazal]

Haha, that one spun!

Ummmm no.

 

[Panther_Daz]

Good old Sri Lanka. Can throw away games whilst looking so in control and have been doing so for years.

Australia hot favourite now. 2 kids at the crease with not much to come...

 

[beads6]

Pretty sure we have just found our spinner for the world cup.. He gets some good purchase on the ball too.

 

[Collingwood Storm]

Before the game the commentators were saying that Doherty is only in the squad for the first game as Hauritz will be back from the Shield game.

I hope they have a re-think.

 

[Dragon]

I guess the Lankan batsman are used to playing for spin

Oh dear what happened to your precious sangakkara?

You have to be joking??? :?

 

[Panther_Daz]

That is an ugly looking First Class record for Doherty...

 

[Bazal]

And a ripper from Johnson too! Why can't he do that all the time

 

[beads6]

Pearler of a ball from johnson

 

[IanG]

Xavier has 3 for 3 off 2 overs. Now Johnson picks up a wicket. What a turn around. Sri Lanka now 6 for 86

 

[beads6]

And a ripper from Johnson too! Why can't he do that all the time

because he closes his eyes as he bowls.

 

[Marshall_magic]

Geez, we might actually win a game, been a while since we've done that.

 

[Panther_Daz]

And a ripper from Johnson too! Why can't he do that all the time

That is the beauty of Johnson. He has some unplayable balls in him.

 

[beads6]

That is the beauty of Johnson. He has some unplayable balls in him.

that is why he keeps getting picked... :lol:

 

[Gidley Up]

that is why he keeps getting picked... :lol:

Or maybe it's because he averages 25 runs per wicket in ODIs.
