Australia v England | 2nd T20 | MCG | 14/1/11

[*sallu*]

Another single, Morgan middling it straight away

 

[*sallu*]

Just 5 off, good over !!!

 

[*sallu*]

69 off 54, anyones game from here

 

[James]

Who would replace Collingwood as T20 captain? No doubt he sets good fields, keeps everyone positive and is still a demon out there, but you can't pick specialist fielders.

 

[*sallu*]

Another dot ball, well bowled Watson

 

[holldout]

me sense a wicket!!!

 

[*sallu*]

Who would replace Collingwood as T20 captain? No doubt he sets good fields, keeps everyone positive and is still a demon out there, but you can't pick specialist fielders.

He merits a place in the side on batting when in form

 

[AZ]

good shot, and an even better stop at mid-on.

 

[holldout]

4 saved!!!!well fielded

 

[*sallu*]

Great fielding, saves 3

 

[James]

He hasn't been in form in any cricket for over a year now. Only he would get away with this.

 

[*sallu*]

Pressure building on England, they need a boundary here

 

[*sallu*]

Shuffles 2 feet across and works it for a single

 

[James]

Singles to every ball not gonna get you anywhere boys.

 

[IAJ]

Who would replace Collingwood as T20 captain? No doubt he sets good fields, keeps everyone positive and is still a demon out there, but you can't pick specialist fielders.

After Collingwood, just give it to Morgan straight away, we all know he will captain England in the future anyways.

 

[*sallu*]

Excellent over so far 3 off 5

 

[James]

After 12 overs:

Australia 80/5
England 82/3

Tricky times for England, but they can still win.

 

[*sallu*]

And a dot ball, great over

 

[*sallu*]

After 12 overs:

Australia 80/5
England 82/3

Tricky times for England, but they can still win.

Australia will take it, since this is the time their innings choked up

It was uphill from Australia from hereonin.

Can England do the same?

All on Morgan

 

[*sallu*]

Another dot

 

[James]

Morgs, a boundary at last!

 

[IAJ]

He merits a place in the side on batting when in form

Well this you can say about many players :iamlegend

 

[holldout]

Much needed boundary!!!

 

[*sallu*]

:4

very crucial

 

[*sallu*]

Well this you can say about many players :iamlegend

He has generally been in form rather than out of form throughout his career not like many players :iamlegend

 

[*sallu*]

Despite the boundary, its an excellent over for Aus so far

 

[*sallu*]

Just 5 off 5 so far, well bowled MJ

 

[James]

He has generally been in form rather than out of form throughout his career

Not necessarily true.

 

[holldout]

Last 5 overs 24 scored!!!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

60 required in 7 overs.

Morgan the key wicket here.

 

[*sallu*]

David Gower "Even MJ is getting his line right"

 

[*sallu*]

60 off 42

Its anyones game !!!

Very good over against for Australia

 

[Afridi_Fan]

That was so lame. )

 

[James]

It's slipping away.

 

[AZ]

Davies holes out to mid-on, terrible shot.

 

[Khabri420]

Davies gone!

 

[holldout]

out!!! Davies gone!!!!

 

[*sallu*]

Outstanding catch, Watson doing it again, 2 wickets for nothing

 

[James]

Thank god this is Watson's last over. They an't got a bloody clue against him.

 

[James]

Luke Wright in

 

[*sallu*]

Davies holes out to mid-on, terrible shot.

Holes out is giving him more credit than he deserves

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Still Morgan is there.

 

[*sallu*]

Watson

2-14 in 3.1

Outstanding again !!!

 

[*sallu*]

If Morgans bats 20, England will win !!!

 

[*sallu*]

another dot, and the pressure builds

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Good Test innings so far from Wright.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Required RR 9

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Single to Wright.

 

[*sallu*]

and another dot

 

[*sallu*]

finally off the mark

 

[Watsupdoc]

Watson gets another

 

[James]

Luke Wright gets a run! 1 off 5 balls for him so far in this series, for 1 dismissal. So he is averaging 1.

Shame about Davies, he always gets out to those crappy shots. His innings had potential.

 

[holldout]

RRR almoist 9!!! England in midlife crisis!!!

 

[Amjid Javed]

A bit of a test for england for once!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Another single to Morgan

 

[*sallu*]

Theres no way Wright will do anything on such a big ground

 

[AZ]

the Misfits (Luke Yardy & Bres) need to combine with Morgan here.

 

[*sallu*]

And again, just another single

 

[Afridi_Fan]

57 requried in 6.

 

[*sallu*]

57 to win from 6

Its Morgan or Bust !!!

 

[James]

Theres no way Wright will do anything on such a big ground

Or any ground.

Shocking player, he has to go. They say 'is bowling is good, but they never bowl him. Pointless.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Just a single.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Another leg bye.

 

[*sallu*]

Should've been 2 again

The difference in running is costing them !!!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Good running, Wright gets 2.

 

[IAJ]

Tait needs to take som responsibility, he bowled so well in England last time.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

And another single.

 

[*sallu*]

And they finally manage a well run 2

 

[AZ]

Pinga!

gets raucous applause from the Aussie faithful, great to see him back.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Morgan missed out on that lollipop.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

51 from 5.

 

[*sallu*]

ooh, good field setting

 

[James]

Poor team selection and painful batting performance.

England will lose.

 

[*sallu*]

Paine left it on purpose

They want Wright in !!!

 

[*sallu*]

I'd risk O'Keefe for 1 over

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Dot ball.

 

[*sallu*]

Binga is in!!!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Couple to Morgan

 

[*sallu*]

Morgan has virtually found backward point on every 2nd ball so far

 

[Afridi_Fan]

100 up.
