fineleg Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Terrific bowling and persistence by lee, clark and MJ. Good accuracy, bowling to field, consistent line & length. Hogg did quite good and hogg will be a handful in Sydney. Aussies have gracefully transitioned from loss of McG and Warney Even Andrew Symmonds flights more than Bhajji!!!!!! As for Ind batting, less said the better. Link to comment
Guest Hiten. Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Warne actually predicted that Ausi's will demolish India @ MCG, but India will fight back in the latter part of the series. Demolition @ MCG .... CHECKED Indian fight back...... tbd Link to comment
jacky007 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 bhajji said the ball wasnt moving at all :S:S:S, so he had to bowl at over 85kmph. not sure where did he came up with that from coz he was even bowling over 82~85kmph in the second inning when the ball was turning Link to comment

fineleg Posted December 29, 2007 Author Share Posted December 29, 2007 more like a perpetual halloween ..... :nervous: LOL! Yes, this halloween repeats itself anytime India finds itself in a tricky 4th Inn proposition! We are pathetic in providing a Sangakkara like fight in 4th Inn :angry_smile: Link to comment

fineleg Posted December 29, 2007 Author Share Posted December 29, 2007 Iam talking about jacky's avatar finey .... Indian cricket teams performance never ever bothers me ..... and I will still remain a very loyal fan even if they lose by an innings for the next 10 matches ... and Boss scores 20 ducks in a row ... :wink_smile: oh jackeys avatar, ok. :D Well, if they keep playing pathetic, we have the right to call a spineless perf as a spineless perf. Saying what it is does not mean disloyal. Regarding SRT, yet another 4th Inn disappointment from danra's God. I am wondering where danramrah is hiding :D Link to comment
arkay Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Ozzie bowling in MCG Ozzie bowling in MCG Brett Lee : Clearly led the attack. He setup VVS Jaffer & Tendulkar beautifully to make them lose their wickets. While he did n't run the opposition, he came at crucial intervals to break the partnership. Stuart Clark: From being 3rd seamer, Clarke became a leading wicket taker. Since he bowls to the stumps always, Indians kept either defending or losing wickets. Unless Indians are offensive, he will keep getting wickets at regular intervals Mitchel Johnson: Did nt perform the way Brett Lee / Stuart Clarke. Before the start of this game, Mitchel Johnson was no. 2 seamer. But Stuart Clarke has solidified his position better. He does not have any variations and most of the time, all his balls are seaming away to the keeper. Even though he bowled a couple of inswingers from round-the-wicket, he was not upto mark. If ozzies want to bring Shaun Tait, he may be the one who may leave way for Tait (provided Hogg is not needed) Brad Hogg: Hogg was more hype. In the odi's batsmen have to runs and there are fielders who can guard the ball in the boundary. He bowled a lot of full-toss and would have gone for more runs had Indians been in good form. He did bowl some wrong ones in the 2nd innings. But that is expected of him when the ball is turning on day 4. He will definitely play in Sydney. If he is not among wickets, he would leave way for Tait Link to comment
Donny Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Clark may have bowled first change but there's no way he is or was rated behind Johnson. Johnson was used with the new ball because he can swing it and is a lefty - and quicker than SC. Many thought Tait should've played instead of Johnson. Ask Dada and Yuvi if Hogg is hype. :wink_smile: Link to comment
Desi Cartman Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Symonds wasnt bad either ... Link to comment

Donny Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 He was not required to get all batsmen out. He did his job. Link to comment
Guest Hiten. Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 UV was never a good player vs spin. DADA has got softer on spinners after his 'comeback'. Link to comment
