Australia v India | CT 2009 | Centurion | 28/9/09 [Match Abandoned due to rain]

[IAJ]

16 runs of that Sharma over. Looking better for Australia now.

 

[don1990]

What a lovely shot

 

[don1990]

wide.

 

[Juggernaut]

Bloody hell we complain if a bowler drops below 80 mph.

Praveen Kumar is slow death.

 

[Gollum]

Good bowling Sharma. Ruining all the good work of opening bowlers!

 

[haroonrasheed320]

Pnting going after Sharma now that was planned to face less balls from sharma

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Ponting

 

[Poison]

Ominous.

 

[don1990]

 

[don1990]

what a shot by pointing

 

[Juggernaut]

Beautiful shot!

That is brilliant.

Ponting at his best.

 

[Momo]

Wow

Shot of the tournament!

 

[Poison]

Beautiful shot!

That is brilliant.

Ponting at his best.

He looked in ominous touch in England aswell.

This is danger.

 

[Mohsin]

Did Bhogle just say 'Salam'?

 

[slix10]

Haha ponting smacks a six.

 

[don1990]

Kumar to Ponting, SIX, Some Magic from Ricky. Delicious straight hit. He glided forward, picked the length delivery from the off and middle and lofted it handsomely over long-on.

 

[Oxy]

I picked Parveen Kumar today specifically so he will bowl garbage to the Aussie batsman I have in my Fantasy XI

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Dhoni ) )

Advantage back to Aus after he took off his only wicket taker of the tournament.

 

[Mohsin]

Ponting should be dropped, he's taking too much time!

 

[jusarrived]

sweetly timed by Ponting , good shot

surely pitch has gone flat now

 

[Oxy]

Harsha Bhogle just went all 'Muslim' on us....

"Salaam" !!!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

48/1 after 10.

 

[Oxy]

48/1 after 10.

49-1 off 10 overs!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Its drizzling?

 

[Gollum]

Watch out India. Ponting is looking good. He is a treat to watch!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Paine stuck on elbow by Dhoni's throw.

50 up in 10.1 overs.

 

[Oxy]

Dhoni throws the ball at the Aus batsman!

Terrible throw,

Bhogle says 'excellent throw'

 

[RexRex]

haha ...nice one dhoni

 

[Afridi_Fan]

49-1 off 10 overs!

My bad, got that wrong.

 

[Oxy]

Pifty up

 

[don1990]

Bowling Powerplay on

 

[Juggernaut]

Don't wann jinx it but Ponting looks like he's setting himself up for a big one.

 

[jusarrived]

Dhoni throws the ball at the Aus batsman!

Terrible throw,

Bhogle says 'excellent throw'

it was probably hitting stumps , hows that a terrible throw ?

 

[Oxy]

Why did Ishan Sharma mention this 100mph nonsense?

His 1st target should be 85 mph at least once in a match for starters!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Nehra somehow stops that.

50 Partnership.

 

[Momo]

And the 'State the bleedingly obvious' award of 2009 also goes to Wasim Akram.

 

[jusarrived]

thats the best piece of fielding i have seen from Nehra , ever

 

[Oxy]

it was probably hitting stumps , hows that a terrible throw ?

Because it hit my fantasy XI keeper I cant afford him to be injured!

 

[Oxy]

And the 'State the bleedingly obvious' award of 2009 also goes to Wasim Akram.

Great bowler

Hmmm.....about the commenatry

 

[Momo]

Aussies back on track. Playing beautifooly now.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

54/1 after 11

 

[RexRex]

And the 'State the bleedingly obvious' award of 2009 also goes to Wasim Akram.

no way.ravi has won that nine yrs straight

 

[Mohsin]

And the 'State the bleedingly obvious' award of 2009 also goes to Wasim Akram.

Leave him alone!
Leave him alone you monster!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Ishant is livingh up to what he had said, he is trying to prove that he worked on his bouncers.

 

[slix10]

54/1 for Aus.

 

[don1990]

slower one & well played by pointing..

 

[OZGOD]

Holy @#$% what happened I went away for 10 mins we were at 1/22.

 

[Fish]

India take the bowling power play like every team does ater the irst ten overs, I would like to see a captain hold off for a while to see what happens. Ponting and Paine look like they are getting into the groove so it could have been a good ploy to delay the powerplay and force them to change their game and bring on the power play later during the middle when teams are just pushing the ball around and upset their batting plans.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Mishra comes in .

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Why did Ishan Sharma mention this 100mph nonsense?

His 1st target should be 85 mph at least once in a match for starters!

Sharma has already reached 100mph, courtesy of T Paine and a pull shot.

 

[Momo]

Great bowler

Hmmm.....about the commenatry

No doubting the bowler thing.

 

[don1990]

mishra on

 

[Amjid Javed]

Sharma has already reached 100mph, courtesy of T Paine and a pull shot.

[jusarrived]

Because it hit my fantasy XI keeper I cant afford him to be injured!

fair enuf


spin introduced , mishra to bowl

 

[Afridi_Fan]

There is some turn as Harsha once again mentions IPL

 

[Amjid Javed]

Holy @#$% what happened I went away for 10 mins we were at 1/22.

Go away for 40 Mins then )

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Edged for four.

 

[don1990]

edged & dropped....

 

[Oxy]

Edged - goes through 1st slip & keeper for 4

 

[Momo]

Sharma has already reached 100mph, courtesy of T Paine and a pull shot.

)

 

[Amjid Javed]

Aussies building well here and India need some wickets!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Dravid is standing far from where he should.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

58/1 after 12.

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Is R Dravid a Pakistani in disguise?

 

[jusarrived]

cant believe we have been picking Harbajan ahead of Mishra , the difference in call is so obvious in the very first over

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Harsha: Four of the over, could have been a wicket maiden.

)

 

[Poison]

How phaast has Ishant bowled, with full keel-paad?

 

[don1990]

Mishra to Paine, FOUR, Edged but goes between Dhoni and Dravid at first slip. It was a lovely leg break that spun past the lunging Paine, took the edge and Dravid dived to his left but couldn't reach it

 

[Oxy]

Someone should tell Wasim Akram that the we arent nursery kids and know a little bit about abou cricket.

"Heres the ball. Its white & its round" etc etc

 

[Afridi_Fan]

The ball just didnt bounce at all

 

[jusarrived]

Is R Dravid a Pakistani in disguise?

stop insulting the Legend

 

[Afridi_Fan]

This is an odd wicket for sure

 

[Oxy]

Harsha: Four of the over, could have been a wicket maiden.

)

Inflicting Waz & Harsh on us is unfair! I cant take it no more

 

[OZGOD]

Sharma has already reached 100mph, courtesy of T Paine and a pull shot.

 

[jusarrived]

260 is a good total , says Akram now

 

[don1990]

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

stop insulting the Legend

I like him. Doesnt seem to want India to win.

 

[Oxy]

Magnifico!!!

4

63-1

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Paine treating a 100 MPH bowler like a spinner.

 

[Oxy]

260 is a good total , says Akram now

Guy is off his head!
