SOS for mitch johnson?

Well they seem to be dropping like flies on both sides.

Michael Clarke's back is playing up again. Peter Forrest is out there fielding again. Hearing Greg Blewett on ABC Radio throwing George Bailey's name into the equation as possible cover.

poor effort in the field
no intensity at all
that ball that ran through two outfielders off a straight drive off mckay summed up tonight's effort

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I think Australia were complacent coming into this game. Sri Lanka's top 3 is the best in the world IMO and the whole team fights to the end.

Well played Dilshan.

 

[Mr Angry]

uber collapse....

 

[TheParraboy]

we are back baby

only 8 wickets to go

 

[IanG]

WICKET!!!!!!!!

TM Dilshan hauls out for 106 caught by Mussey off Binga

I still think the horse has already bolted though

 

[Xfactor1979]

the crowd thinks so
nobody left in the stadium

oh wait thats just the number of patrons that actually went

This Tri-Series deserves a decider in the Finals.

Not even PB can save us from here, we needed at least 300 on this deck.

 

[Jason Maher]

Pathetic effort. 4 runs an over for the first 30 overs nowhere near good enough. Especially with someone like Warner at the crease.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

That's a frosty whipping. I think Pattinson is on shaky ground for the third match.

 

[Eelectrica]

Bring back Mitch Johnson and Mick Lewis! They're due for a good game!!

 

[Horrie Is God]

Sri Lanka didn't use any vasso on us tonight..:shock:

Dinner & a movie would be nice before they do that to us again..

With the 3rd game in Adelaide they'd be red hot faves now..

Pathetic effort. 4 runs an over for the first 30 overs nowhere near good enough. Especially with someone like Warner at the crease.

The first person here to mention Warner's innings. He may have got a ton but 140 balls for 100 is far too slow these days IMO.

 

[Panther_Daz]

From Cricinfo:

Mahela says he had no issues about the full toss no-ball, he just had an issue about the late call and Clarke having a word with the umpire. He says he thinks he's been fined for that outburst, and if he gets paid he'll cough up. Hilarious



To show the character and heart on the field over the past month and not being paid for it is unbeliavable. Top stuff.

350 the way they batted

Clarke countered it with an 80 ball century. They had a run a ball 180 off partnership.

We were 80 short on that pitch..if Warner batted like Clarke we may have had 60 more runs to defend! There is no point having Dave Hussey, Mike Hussey and Christian in the sheds with 5 overs to go!
