So happy to see Pathan being shown his real " aukaat !!"

As if he is not bound to have one bad game :P
 
Pathan might have had Hayden stumped last over but it wasnt referred

Sharma has been bowling mainly in the low 140s - around 142 or so
 
Need a big knock from Haydunce here. Geez Ponting's had a very ordinary year so far - two tons only I think.

yeah he was MOM of the test match India won that ended the Aus streak of what 17 games in a row?, what about his aukaat then? Pretty high.
 
ESPN shared an interesting fact: Last time India defeated Australia at final was almost a decade back, 1998 Sharjah!

Ah Hayden feasting on India again - will you all be glad when he retires?

Hayden > Gilly > Mcgrath > Warne

This would be the order of joy (as an Indian fan) for me over these Oz players' retirement!


So is there any pressure on him from Aus. media to retire? :D

In one day cricket yes. Not in Tests.
 
Aussies 5 down, their middle order has flopped pretty much all series and pointings having a stinker!
 
Still, anything over 230 will give a better than even chance for Australia to bowl out India. I hope India keep the inform Gambhir at No 3 rather than sacrifice him as an opener.
 
Let's see if Hopeless can resuscitate what's left of his ODI career by giving Huss some company. If we can get to 200ish we're half a chance.

is it too difficult for your imbecile mind to keep this in the spirit of the game? you get thrashed at times, and another day you bag a 5 for. its the nature of the game, and the bad days always catch up with you. does not mean that the player is any less competent than he was a week ago.

no I'm sorry his aukat is a bowler found in every gully of pakistan, because you ahve declared soafter 2 overs in ODI cricket..

u happy now, now go have some chai with miandad.
of course, india will not do anything for miandad, so he might have to import that tea from china.

Hey you watch your tone. your obsessesion with some useless , piece of crap bowler does not mean i would stand this rubbish you keep coming up with. You talk about the spirit of the game... how about maintaining the spirit of this forum.
 
and a male streaker disrupts the game...

so what punishment he would get under Australian laws?

None, its all a part of the ploy for the mental dis-integration of the opposition
 
Big shot from Lee but Sharma gets under it and has caught it

8/231
 
pathan has been horrendous with the bal ltoday. Hopefully he makes up for it it hthe bat, which he'll haea to as it looks to be a close game.
 
That's rubbish captaincy from Dhoni. I wonder what's the logic bringing Irfan when Ishant has 2 overs left.

Ishant is injured and out of the ground so he was forced to bowl Pathan

Aha, my bad. Clearly a sad day for Irfan. I wonder why his obsession with the "slower delivery". He has become a trundler in ODIs to which every batsman fancies stepping out and hitting. Only Afridi loses his middle-stump ;)

if I wanted a comeback I'd have wiped it off ur mom's chin.

Anyway, I think we will win this one.

is "we" aus?

if so I hope not, but aus will probably win

Gambhir/Yuvraj/Dhoni need to step up. If sachin showed up it'd be good too.

yes, we is Aus.

You will soon have a split personality switching between being Australian and being South Africian
 
Uthappa lookn comfortable in the opener's slot against genuinely good new ball bowlers..
 
An interesting stat courtesy of the ESPN Star commentary team, the highest opening partnership against the Aussies this series was 29 before this one. Hopes and Hogg have bowled with the luxury of early wickets in every match, would be interesting to see how they go today.
 
I suppose the Indians are going to start whinging now and blabbering on about the Hussey catch and how it bounced and how there was sufficient doubt and how it should it have been referred and how the benefit of doubt should have gone to Uthappa and how the Aussies celebrated too much and how the samosas smelt of potatoes.

You beat me to it :))
 
Gumbo gone. Brilliant running between and wickets and fantastic communication between the two batsman.
 
Familiar story isn’t? Gift wrapped wicket and hopeless run out. Damn damn damn!!!
 
As much as Gambhir is to be balmed for not being alert, Sachin had enough time to cancel the second run. Just lacked the presence of mind. you can see in the replay he knew gambhir was out while crossing him

It was a clean catch. Ball was nowhere close to ground!
 
SAchin is scoring at good pace, but If india has to win he will have to stay there for long tinme.

You not watching live?
Bowler bowled way outside leg-side and Gilly tried to distract umpire by appealing for catch, umpire smiled and signaled wide!
