1ST TEST: Australia v Pakistan MCG Dec 26-30 2009

[Hallatia]

One nightwatchman has a higher score than all the players in the team bar Ponting!

I think this would be more embarassing though, because it would be a night watchman succeeding as batsman, where all the other Aussie batsmen so far have failed this Summer ... :crazy:

 

[TheParraboy]

Havent watched a ball bowled today unfortunately

Can people give me quick answers to these questions


Did Katich get out to a good ball?
Whos fault was Sunshines run out, was it a silly run?
Did any of the Pakistani bowlers look good or promising?
Was there any turn for spin bowling?
What do we looking likely getting in the 1st innings everything considered?

Cheers Guys

1 - decent delivery, but it was a nervous shot from Kat
2 - I would not blame Kat for that, he didn't even know where Sunshine was, a bit of a silly run, but noone's fault really, just one of those funny things that happens from time to time
3 - a few of the Paki bowlers looked good, most of them were bowling pretty well, but they were majorly let down by their feilding
4 - there was a bit of turn, not that I can see Hauri doing much with it ...
5 - 450 - 500odd maybe more

thanks bud :thumn

couldnt believe when I logged onto cricinfo scorecard to see both openers out on the 90s :crazy:

 

[Hallatia]

I'd be happy that both openers got good scores, but they were both dropped a few times, feilding and dropped catches were killing the Pakis in the first session and a half

 

[hineyrulz]

The 2 opening bowlers did well, the offie bowled ok today but was overbowled with some terrible fields. And it looked like their were 11 Edward Scissor hands out there today.

 

[TheParraboy]

Gee, Just saw highlights of some dropped sitters. Pakistan could have had us in real trouble had they held on to them. They havent brought their A game fielding to the table at all

 

[wittyfan]

Haurie is set for a big one!

 

[aussies1st]

Hussey starts the morning positively. Just hope he doesn't stuff up when the good teams come again.

 

[Twizzle]

shame Punter got out, he was in pretty good touch

 

[Hallatia]

Huss is doing well this morning and he has a nice strike rate so far this innings:crazy:, I have decided, he will be the first Aussie to get a century this Summer...:sarcasm:

 

[TheParraboy]

Both Haurie and Hussey looking good

Clarke, North, Haddin, Johnson to come

550 total easy before we declare sometime after tea id say

 

[WarriorsFan4Life]

That was out.

 

[aussies1st]

Well played Hussey, looking really good again.

 

[hineyrulz]

Is this the same Hussey from the last 18 months????

 

[Hallatia]

That was out.

I thought so too, but what can you do...

 

[TheParraboy]

Well, There is always the option some choose to take and that is to have a whinge and cry how Australia always get calls go there way :sarcasm:

Your favourite commentator thought it was not out

there was not much in it, so I don't think you could really complain about that call

I love Warney, he says that wrong calls are just a part of the game that you just got to learn to live with and that they even eachother out in the end

 

[hineyrulz]

This is why the Nightwatchmen is a waste of time, slowing up the run rate and ruining out momentum. While Pup and Haddin sit on their bums. As i type Hauri blasts one.

 

[aussies1st]

FMD not again.
