18th Match: India V Australia: Mohali, India

[Rob H]

4 more from a cracking cut shot. Poor bowling, super batting. 100 up

 

[Rob H]

101/1 off 14

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

auss really rollicking here

 

[Rana]

this match will be over in 35 overs at this rate

 

[OZGOD]

This is pretty brutal stuff. Surely Dravid has to bring in a change - the seamers are getting caned and have completely lost their line.

I expect Harby to be introduced very quickly.

 

[OZGOD]

As I type, Harby comes on in the 14th over.

 

[OZGOD]

Good turn on Harby's first delivery.

 

[Rana]

106-1

 

[OZGOD]

Geez it's SO QUIET out there. Can't tell the boundaries at all.

 

[OZGOD]

what do they do if one of the openers needs a runner before a wicket has fallen?

Is it just tough luck?

I'm guessing he'll have to retire hurt?

 

[infamous9383]

too many boudries given away by Ind

 

[infamous9383]

108/1 after 15 overs

Aus cruising

 

[infamous9383]

Geez it's SO QUIET out there. Can't tell the boundaries at all.

Yeah i was wondering that too

 

[OZGOD]

Mongia on as well now.

 

[infamous9383]

Mongia to bowl

 

[Rana]

I'm guessing he'll have to retire hurt?

or maybe number 10 or 11 have to run

 

[OZGOD]

Yeah i was wondering that too

Don't they politely clap boundaries from the opposition in India?

 

[KalAhmed]

Good half century to Shane Watson

 

[OZGOD]

Fifty for Watson. Exceptional by his own mediocre standards.

 

[infamous9383]

shane watson for fifty

 

[KalAhmed]

Great Ball by Mongia! Good spin and Watson didnt read it. LBW

 

[infamous9383]

watson gone

 

[infamous9383]

watson and gilchrist leave

 

[OZGOD]

And Watson is out straight after getting to 50. Straightening and looked plumb.

 

[OZGOD]

Crowd came to life all of a sudden.

[OZGOD]

It's impossible to tell the boundaries from the crowd reaction but that was a good cut from Punter. He's crept to 32 off 33.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Mongia causing problems here, turn and bounce.

 

[infamous9383]
