1st Test - Australia v India at Melbourne Dec 26-30, 2011

Jeez the way these Indians appeal, I wonder if they would have had any DRS left by this stage.

Great innings on debut from Cowan- more or less exactly the temperament that Australia needs from an opener. It's made just about all of the difference

 

[Mr Angry]

Quality.

 

[Twizzle]

50 to Cowan

 

[aussies1st]

Onya Cowan.

 

[chrisD]

Only 50, but worth much more to Australia at the moment. Good celebration too, has the look like he thinks the job is only half done.

 

[hineyrulz]

Terrible decision to bat first...........

 

[chrisD]

Cowan does seem to have issues with straight deliveries.

Terrible decision to bat first...........

lol, and this Cowan guy is a complete hack too, why'd we drop Phil Hughes for him.

 

[Mr Angry]

After i go shopping i go to cricket.bags antd all....ffs.

 

[umina panther]

shut up bill you silly Victorian

 

[aussies1st]

Like that delivery?

 

[aussies1st]

Another year another no hundred.

 

[hineyrulz]

Good nut that one, and the streak continues.

 

[Meth]

Is 62 enough to save Punter?

 

[AlwaysGreen]

The Handspitter of old would have gone on and scored a big one. 62 is handy but his aura has gone. This young chap looks promising for India.

 

[some11]

Loving Cowan's leaving.

 

[Twizzle]

Is 62 enough to save Punter?

yep, I dont think he was in any danger as there really is no one to replace him

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Cowan = Steady Eddie. *









Not the comedian, but because he's like a rock.
