Australia v West Indies, 2nd ODI, Perth, 3 February, 2013

Will the Windies make 100? Will Aus rotate themselves to a loss?

Another day game. WTF? Are Wozzies afraid of Mozzies?

probably a ch 9 ratings thing?

Yep the time difference to the eastern states means day/nighters finish too late over here for many.

FMD, have we become a nation of grannies??

Seems so. I used to like the midnight to 1am finishes of the Perth day nighters.

Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG)
Former fast bowlers Glenn McGrath and Charlie Turner will be inducted into the MCG's Australian Cricket Hall of Fame tomorrow night.

Interesting discussion about the Aussie cricket summer on 'The Offsiders' today although despite the problems re. rotation etc. they concluded that the vigorous discussion showed that people are still emotionally connected to cricket here.

Still think the biggest problem was not making the call on Punter. Hussey's decision compounded this which has meant that they didn't have the chance to blood someone in the middle-order. The Sydney test selection was darn ridiculous though. After having blasted out the Lankans in Melbourne they reinforce the bowling and bat the keeper at #6.

Aus sent in, and Uzzy gets snaffled at mid wicket with a good catch. 1-16

Once again Uber K fails to live up to the hype.

...as does Finch

Finch flops again. Careless slash. [sigh]

We suck batting first.

Con looks flirty as always. All his runs through 4th slip so far.

Con gets one in the middle at last.

Now he clouts a zack over square leg.

Now clarke will fall as channel 9 says he is in tremendous form,rather than the shit form he gave us vs srilanka.

Three out of three nailed to fielders.

A little harsh, b. Sure, in comparison to his 2012 form, he was down a bit, but his scores were 74, 57*, 105, 50 & 29 for 316 at 79.00.

And now dickhead Con throw his hand away. Qunt.

Now we'll crab to 250. [sigh]

Oops, maybe we won't as Bravo crashes one into Pup's stumps. We're farked.
