    Simon Katich should have punched Michael Clarke instead of grabbing his throat

    Blessed is spot on with those perception comments. Comments about punching out Clarke aside, Mo Matthews is right about one thing : Katich would have been the ideal transitional captain for this side. Even if you are the biggest Clarke fan in the world you'd have to concede this is a terrible...

    Australia's New Captain Meets The Public

    http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/michael-clarke-stars-in-his-own-day-nighter/story-e6freuy9-1226032603404 Cricket Australia must be pleased the Clarke era is off to such a good start:thumbsu: This ain't gonna end well, is it? :o

    Hitting form at the right time....

    Agree with you that there have been some promising signs today - particularly Smith - if we can get ten quality overs from him every game, we're suddendly looking a nicely balanced side. England, though, have been absolutely shocking with the bat tonight, throwing wickets away, and really...

    Another captains knock from Clarke

    As for the booing when he came out - these tickets are not cheap - people presumably go to these games for enertainment, and have seen Clarke deliver nothing except scratching around attempting to find form on the national stage. They're just sending a message that they want him to get on...

    ODI Series game 5 Australia v England @ Gabba (Sun D/N)

    You just knew that was gonna happen, as soon as all three of them got going. Anyway, love him or hate him, we're stuck with him for the World Cup, and he looked a bit more positive today, particularly early on. Turning point maybe.

    That was a bastard of a ball. In all sorts now...

    ODI Series game 5 Australia v England @ Gabba (Sun D/N)

    If Ponting is almost ready to return, is this a bat-off between Clarke and White for the same spot?

    ODI Series game 5 Australia v England @ Gabba (Sun D/N)

    Neil Mitchell and Kerry O'Brien can sleep safe tonight, knowing Mark Nicholas is out of the running for their jobs.

    ODI Series game 5 Australia v England @ Gabba (Sun D/N)

    Tony Greig : how is it un-Australian to boo a player who has consistently bored the crowds to tears with his self-centred, soporific batting in a format that is supposed to be about entertainment? Putting pressure on your fellow batsmen while you scratch around trying to save your own arse -...

    Another captains knock from Clarke

    Don't care how many he makes - he'll be picked next game irrespective of his score, but I just want to see him lift his strike rate and not heap all the scoring pressure on those around him.

    Slats, I don't think Nicholas likes you very much...

    Another captains knock from Clarke

    Best result for all concerned would have been for Australia to wrap up the series, then Clarke could have been rested for a week or two, where he could focus on his batting in private. As it stands, with the series still live, they won't throw White into the captaincy, so Clarke's (and our)...

    3rd ODI: Australia v England @ Sydney (Sun D/N)

    Still not sure where we're at. Could see England winning 3 of the next 4. Are they planning to ever play any of their A-grade bowlers this series? Anyway, well done D. Huss - kept his head beautifully, and deserved the MOTM. Lee:confused:
