Tendulkar once again fails to make his hundredth century. Superb ball from Anderson gets him.

India 107/7 and this match will more than likely be over tonight

gee some ill disciplined batting from India, some one should teach them how to leave the short ball

do they actually have a coach

they really need to learn how to bat away from the sub continent

And us geniuses are letting them miss out on the Gabba. We put a bit of zip in the pitches (even Sydney these days has a bit for the quicks) and we can beat India and beat them well. But nothing surer we'll leave Hilditch in charge of selections and produce 4 slow roads for the Indians to make the buggers feel right at home.

4 boring, drab bat-a-thons going 5 days will keep the interest high and the money flowing :crazy:

According to the clowns at CA we'd rather watch Tendulker, Laxman & Dravid bat & bat & bat, no geniuses, we'd rather see Australia win (well most of us would)

I'm happy to give them Adelaide so long as we're already 2-0 up.

Seriously though most people want to see a contest between bat and ball. 100s should mean you've overcome the odds and stood out, whilst wickets should be gettable if you bowl well and maintain pressure, but not gimmes with the ball hooping around and doing crazy shit off the pitch.

If we get that, then let the cards fall where they may.

Wow the Pommy team are a bloody good side and will be number one for the next few years IMO. I wonder how many players in the test side are actually poms though. It is beyond ridiculous how many non-english players they select. Aussies have a long way to go but have some outstanding young prospects coming through.

To be fair the only Saffa's they have are Pieterson, Trott & Prior, Strauss has been in England since he was 6 to be fair
