India v Australia, 2nd ODI, Kochi, 2nd Oct

... and just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed...

Could be another washout, apparently.

It most probably is. Unless it's bone-dry and sun is shining with a vengeance down in Kochi, I don't see a match happening.

... i'm gonna go out to run and let myself get absolutely soaking wet ...

...nothing lasts forever and we both know hearts can change...

October rain? Not quite the same ring to it....

(through September under the weather)

... take the GI's, I will have the spies...

The forecasts over 6 websites this morning (Australia) indicate cloud and 20% rain at worst. Except yahoo who always predict 50% chance of rain with scattered thunderstorms.

I have bad vibes about Australia's chances don't know why.
Maybe it's the absence of a fielding Captain.

Is India the most unsporting crowd in the cricket world? It's eerie to see the likes of Gilchrist hit a rocket to the boundary to be greeted by deafening silence.

Most ignorant, certainly.

Ponting might be playing after all.
Betfair have Australia at 1.58 against Centrebets 1.60. and the TAB are suspending betting still.
Anyone got Rikky's mobile number?

Nah, surely that title belongs to the Aussie fans and their,"Why are you playing for England? You're not English!" jibes at Sajid Mahmood.

Clearly.

Gilly already gone 5-1.

India are home.

Hodge snared by Sreesanth now 8-2. The Kochi crowd would have gone berserk at thier local hero getting this breakthrough.

Hodge FFS.

Stabilising by the looks of it 36-2.

podge was due for a string of failures after his efforts in safsterville

FIXED

Clarke given out, stumped off Pathan without referral to the third umpire. Ponting puts his nose in, third umpire is referred and replays show that Clarke is out. A new type of dissent being pioneered by Ponting perhaps.

Looks like the Spin tandem of Bhaji and Pathan (!!) is working well.

He's probably the only spinner capable of pinging it down at 137.1 kph.

slow != spin

What did Ponting do, exactly?

Pathan and Bhajji getting spanked by Symmo now. Didn't quite work out then.
