Aus vs India, 2nd Test, Sydney, 2-6 Jan (I)

Another 4 to Sachin... game slipping away from Australia.

Might put a pineapple on the Indians tonight...betfair have em at $8 atm...

What was the highest score by SL in their Aus tour ?

Why don't you look it up for yourself you lazy prick?

Which of the three? The one before the caught behind decision, the one before the 3rd ump screw up or the one before the lbw decision?

Grow up!!!

So probably not too surprising then...

Hadn't noticed that so maybe I was a bit harsh.

doremi, I was born short & ugly - some things you just accept & get on with mate - all the farking sooking in creation will not change anything. Use your powers for good.

I'm 20 years old and you don't see me favouring one player and one team and being biased towards umpires or other players or other teams...



Yes, that was a serious quote. I've only now realised this game is turning, and it's turning in India's favour.

yah contributions by the XIIth man should not be discounted.

Fair enough Smerky. I just have the feeling it's destined for a draw with the last half of day 5 to be exceedingly irrelevant.

Another 100+ session for India. Fascinating test match.

Come on Harby, don't give away the 50 FFS.

Tasty number

Without contributions from Bucknor Aus would have been 250 a.o

Hmm, well yeah, I was a bit bitter I guess. It wasn't a totally serious post either.

You need to be more serious.

"It wasn't a totally serious post either."

Cool! Good to hear.

Don't you have a set of railway tracks to play on?

This and the succeeding session will be more important than the numbers suggest. If we do this well, it will be the first time that we have (a) showed an ability to grind it out and (b) give to the Aussies what we've got the past few days and in the previous Test - simple frustration.

Given how rarely (relatively) India play Australia that's a superb achievement.

He played fewest no. of tests (23) amongst all 15 bats to reach that mark alongwith Barrington.

"doremi, I was born short & ugly -"

That was unfortunate. Myself I was born 180cm tall.

(Still ugly mind you....)

Mate - it's been a terrific Test played on a proper deck between to good teams. The magic of Test cricket.

Lol doremi, there's no greater KLPD than 'fessing right up.

Terrific stuff.

Now someone is going to ask what KLPD is- HH be my guest.

Aye Mick. Just a pity that the rain may ruin the finish.
