India - 5/ 219

We could have done with another 40 runs

The pitch has been tampered with.

It is behaving strangely getting high bounce at a spinners length, but not so much at a pace bowlers length.

Cheating Indians must have done something to get a wicket to behave like no wicket anywhere else in the world behaves.
A different treatment on different lengths.

Perhaps the Australians need to hone their skills using a stump to hit a squash ball against the side of the house.

Shaun Marsh... 4 and 1

Warner Fails again over seas... but he says he's hitting the ball well and a big score is just around the corner...  Cheesy

meanwhile... Khawaja averages 48 in Test Cricket and can't get a game...  Undecided

He IS an 'ALL or NOTHING' sort of player.

If he is selected, you have to accept that.

So don't select him. This notion of scoring a run a ball century every 4th test is idiotic.

How good was it to see India get belted by the Pakis last night.

It could not be worse for the Indians, beaten by Pakistan.

I guess they will be holding 12 places at the open at the Mumbai sterilization clinic when those blokes go home.

Big upset considering the Pakis were absolutely pathetic when they were out here and India is no easy beat.
Ranked 2nd after South Africa.

So, what is happening with the cricket? Are we have a cricket free season this year? Or just some overpaid sportsmen whingeing that they want more money?
