So Haddin do F**K all with the Bat?

What?

I'm not excusing his poor batting, I'm just stating the reality. At this stage they'd see his value supporting Smith as more important than his batting.

haha, yeah right, its just like having the last dance of the night with your sister....

If anything, they're at least improving the Aussie lineup by showing how useless Haddin and Watto are.

Bailey any chance of a return if Joe or Henriques are overlooked for no.6?

Does Tim Paine still on the scene in terms of potential to be keeper of they don't go with Wade?

 

[damochandler]

they like to make hard work of it

predictions of a draw after just 1 day always look stupid

Well Cricket is s**t anyway. Like Watching Paint Dry.

20/20 is Hit and Giggles

If it is so s**t, then piss off and leave us alone.

 

[GreekLunatic]

Bad hands should retire he is a dud with the bat

My 6 year old niece thinks the same man.

Don't agree with the MotM - had to be Haz or Johnson.

...then why are you posting on the cricket board?

 

[yakka man]

Johnson stiff not to get MOM, but Smith is a worthy winner.

Why did the Ump grab a stump? I have never seen that before.

I think they usually grab the one with the camera in it, to stop they players taking it.

Either that or he knew from his performance so far he won't be umpiring again!

 

[telsor]

Made hard work of it in the end due to a lack of batsmen in the team, but still, it's 2-0.

 

[damochandler]

haddin will play out the series and retire in sydney. watson he's done

You do know you're on the cricket forum right?

 

[Ashton Agar]

Keeper is there to keep. Wades keeping is nowhere near test standard. Ask Lyon whether he would want Wade keeping again..

Hartley or Whiteman although the latter has had an average season

Wade's not even all that bad, get a clue!

MOTM award goes to Kohli.

Paine was dropped by Tasmania.

In fairness there were meant to be showers forecast for 3 of the 5 days IIRC which probably led to that belief.

 

[Beutbrute]

Honestly it is getting into the ridiculous situation with Haddin.
We can't keep carrying him if he can only keep.

Who replaces him for Boxing Day?

Scored the equal least amount of runs for both teams along with Aaron... Except Aaron stayed in the middle for longer

 

[frankrizzo]

Sort of a moral victory for India. Kudos to them for coming close to snatching the match away in both of the matches. A great series so far.

They were 4/310 the aussie bowlers looked cooked and they were going to bowl last on a surface where 200 batting last would been almost impossible, they should be distraught that they lost this game.

Morning of day 2 and morning of day 4 just one quality partnership and the game is theirs and they missed out twice.

These two games should hurt more than just getting thumped from ball one.

Bailey and Paine no chance at all.
