India are my favourite side to watch as their team is filled with great personalities mostly good but the few agro ones just add to the overall personality of the team.

My faves are Tendulker Ganguly Harbajahn Kumble and Dhoni I will let you pick the two agro's.

Love Sreethanth pity he isn't here.

Australia is a similar make up with good and bad personalities thus making for such an intrigueing series.
If Australia aren't playing I always go for India to win because they like Australia are great entertainers.

Cheers, well have to see what happens now, they have agrredd to let the unpires call all low catches, that is ponting and kumble.

Good news that is though Ganguly was clearly out on super slow mo on my hdd recorder coupled to an lcd with set top box clarity.

Ponting still should have butted out.I just saw a documentary where it shows his relatives.

He is of chinese extraction (Miners I think)the original name was Pon Tin his grandfather.
I am NOT being racist here I just thought it interesting.

Jeez ...here I was thinking he was related to George Bush....kinda looks like Bush though

Asad Rauf gives lbw decisions by numbers....3 not outs followed by an out irrespective of where the ball pitched or how high it was
----------------------------------------------------

Dravid was plumb. Makes up for Tendulkar .
No way Bowden is going to give an LBW after that.

Thats the difference between Aus and Ind.....Symonds makes 162 n.o after a shocker from Bucknor....while Dravid throws his wicket away with a double hundred for the taking

India will be rolled over for 350 or less tomoro...

Correction....300 or less!!

325 I reckon.

With pathan coming in after his first ton, and dhoni in a quart of form, sharma can do something but rp isnt a threat so i would say yeh 330 may be 40 is in reach but much further and i would not gamble it.

Dhoni if he gets going will bat with the tail though I sense an early breakthrough.

The Aussie batting is a worry without Hayden but surely Clarke Ponting and Gilchrist are due.

What a performance by Lee he showed Tait up yesterday though Tait doesn't look right to me.

Having said that he can crush the tail so can Lee.

Ponting needs to get his bowlers at the right end and pair Lee and Tait first up.

Pathan looked very shaky against Lee I think he may go early.

We are getting Channel 9 a local station with the likes of Healey Greig Slater Taylor Lawry etc as commentators.
Is it being relayed with the same vision but different commentary?
