F**K off North.

Great innings by Watto.

Struggling big time now. Hopefully only 5 down at stumps.

Wait on. Looks as though there was an edge.

Another missed chance from India.

Hopefully Paine makes them pay

That's great Hussey takes forever to score his 17 and then he ends up getting out leaving us in sh*t. North well usual sh*t.

Is Ponting part of the selection committee? I guess at the end of the Ashes it could be the end of Katich, Ponting, Hussey, Haddin, North(if he doesn't score any runs) etc Test careers. Could be a bit of a turnover.

saw a bit of the test in a pub, so no audio...

Tell me what n03 nincompoop gets run out in test cricket? absolute no no way to get out in this form of the game. Whats worse It looked like he could have made it easily but wasnt going as fast as he should until he realised it too late

Watson getting dropped at 0 and 30 odd, without him we are all out under 150, and sehwag runs down the runs on his own

On Ponting, Anyone know what insighted the argument when Ponting got out, looked heated. I think Bowden had to step in?

Marcus North was unlucky, But a pearler of a delivery from Khan. If it hits him on the pads its not out

Hopefully Paine and Sunshine and the lower order can at least get another 100 on the board

Hopefully Hilfy, Dougie, and Notch can cause some damage with the new ball tomorrow, otherwise this test is as good as gone

fmd, I went to bed early to get up for work today and I see they only scored 224 despite being for 1/127 when I last saw. Glad Watson got his century but how is it that Marcus North keeps getting picked?

North is a waste of space.

Surely we'd be better off with Smith at 6 and it would give us 2 spinners which is something we could use on a pitch like this.

I think our selectors need to get away from our normal formula in India and get another spinner in there, and I dont see North being rated as a spinner.
