2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Australia at Pallekele Sep 8-12 2011

[hineyrulz]

its funny, but Punter got flamed when he bowled Hussey but Clarkie brings him on twice and he gets the breakthrough twice

Different situation though Twiz,I'm sure Clarke has thrown him on for an over or two just to try something different. If i remember Ponting had Huss bowling for nearly an hour when we were pushing for a win.

yeah I know thats what makes it funny, Clarkie can do no wrong as skipper

I am loving it but he just needs to ton up to release the pressure on his batting..

 

[Timbo]

Punter really didn't know how to rotate an attack or when to use part timers. He bowled to a very rigid plan (which was: overs 1-15, use quicks; overs 16+, let Warnie bowl them out) and when it didn't work he went to custard. Clarke is already showing more.

draw coming up

SL powerhouses Jaya and Sangga to get big tonns and fizzle the game out

cheers

The light thing could work in our favour this time, new ball tomorrow morning with a fresh Harris.

draw coming up

Harris bowling beautifully

 

[Horrie Is God]

I hope that missed chance by Clarke doesn't cost us too much..

 

[beads6]

Big drop from Clarke, could be the end of us winning imo.

 

[Timbo]

What a catch!

Walk off Jayawardene you sook.

 

[Timbo]

Now he's blowing up on his way back to the pavilion.

Wanker.

 

[beads6]

Sick of these Sri Lankan turds, they have been very poor all series in Sportsmanship stakes.

 

[Horrie Is God]

41 runs it cost us,but the important thing was it was Mahela we got..

Hopefully we can run through them now & only have to chase 100 odd..

Great recovery by Clarke..A bad drop followed by a pearler of a catch..

 

[aussies1st]

Good showing by Pup, said your call mate but I'm 100% confident I took it.

 

[aussies1st]

Unless Johnson a goodie to H.Jayawardene just then.

 

[counterpuncher]

That catch looks better and better every replay they show.

 

[Horrie Is God]

Copeland is bowling without luck..

 

[aussies1st]

Argh cmon Johnson.

 

[Mr Angry]

And down come the rain and any hope for a result.
