1983-2011 Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 play dhawan in the next test match instead of sehwag, bring in jaffer as backup opener
Robelinda Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 LOL Hughes. I didnt think we could do worse than in 2008 and 2010 in india, but this will be 4-0 so easily. At least in 2010 in those two losses they were closely fought hard wins, right to the death, this current tour is just too easy for India. Im sure Indian fans might be surprised at how easy India is doing it, but no aussie fans really thought we were much of a chance, we arent as good as England, and have been fumbling around ALL summer with horrible management and selections.
Ultimate_Game Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Why do people call him Darty? I don't get it Maybe you missed his darts on the leg and a few of which go down the leg for 5 wides :giggle:

Aussies aren't as good a team as England in SC conditions, but this Aussie performance really has been quite underwhelming.
Ultimate_Game Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Phil Hughes scores 300* (275) on Day 4. Hughes won't score 300 in the entire series.
Trundler27 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 no Pujara' date='Vijay there too[/quote'] I agree with the pujara bit (he may have had a positive impact)... but vijay would probably have flopped big time in australia.... anyhow, at least vijay has used this opportunity... now let's see how much further he can progress.

In my opinion, that is the best Domestic league for T20 and ODI cricket B->
Vivek.S.123 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Maybe you missed his darts on the leg and one a few of which go down the leg for 5 wides :giggle: Ohhhhhhhh so thats why they call him Dartbhajan, because of his huge wides that he bowls down the leg side :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:
Vivek.S.123 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 What makes me more happy is that the day was dominated by youngsters and not some experienced player like Sehwag or Tendulkar
Vanarp22 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Glenn Maxwell is a horrible bowler In T20s vs WI: got hit for 4 sixes in a row by Sunil Narine In Tests vs India: 10-0-55-0 WHY DO THEY KEEP PLAYING THIS GUY AUSTRALIA, HELLO?
Vanarp22 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Keep playing ???? This is his test debut I'm talking about generally in international cricket, not just Tests.
bharat297 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 He's not meant to be a bowler actually. It's the same thing they did with Cameron Smith in 2008. Maxwell is a batting all-rounder they have picked at No.8 in the bowling slot. It doesn't make any sense. Australia blundered by not picking Steven O'Keefe. He's a left-arm orthodox who is a decent batsman too. They could have combined him with Lyon and pick Krejza probably as the back up offspinner.

I know, but they should get a real allrounder because Maxwell isn't fantastic with the bat anyway and even bowling allrounders can bat as decently as him.
bharat297 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Hoping we can push for 700 today. Revenge for Sydney 2012!!!
Vanarp22 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Nathan Lyon -- best spinner in Australia or worst Test economy rate in Australia? This is going to be heated B-> :icflove:

Steve O'Keefe would have been the best choice. However even in the squad. Doherty and Lyon together would have been a better option, even though Lyon got smashed in the first test.
