Australia v Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI, Sydney, Nov 5, 2010

Bring back Timmeh, at least he puts a price on his wicket

This is a real chance for Australia to show the doubters that there's something worth watching and supporting.

And, for that matter, a chance to show that ODI cricket isn't dead.

This pair need to make the most of it now, because they won't let Discus Boy bowl all niight,

OK, a small thing, but is it so hard to make sure that players are wearing their own jumpers during matches? Isn't that why they put numbers and names on the back, so the spectators know who's who?

Clarke already crabbing it

Beat me to it Nath.

Certain run out, Pup pegs the ball from short range and Tayne Pocson inadvertently blocks the ball hitting the stumps and gets sconed on the thigh a foot in front of the stumps.

They just showed it. A real FUBAR.

Of course, Clarke could have run in and taken the bails off.

Or Watson could have done the basics, and got behind the stumps just in case there was a throw coming in from somewhere instead of standing there.

Is the current line-up the least intelligent team ever chosen to play for Australia?

for history

Watson's gone into hibernation as well.

Have they deciued, this game's shot and WGAF anyway and let's use the rest of the night for match practice for the Test bats?

holy poop, Clarke hit a 6!

Not the most convincing shot he's ever played - the next shot for 3 through the covers was much better.

And Clarke kneecaps another bloke....

Just checked the weather radar, there's rain around.

need to be 2/108 after 20 ov if the rain comes

And Shot Put nails Watson - what do we need with 3 down?

3/117 needed off 20

way to go toolbags!

I think we need to hope the rain comes before over 20.
