2nd ODI: Australia v South Africa @ Hobart (Sun)

[dont bowl there]

Shit player...

 

[Costanza_]

Very soft from White. Looking pretty dismal atm

 

[aussie1st]

We clearly are clueless when using our batting power play continue to lose wickets.

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

Rather M Hussey out there then White

 

[Xtreme]

Shit player...

You could almost say the same about Warner......

 

[carntheroos4eva]

Thank goodness he is out Mr Cricket indeed M.Hussey plays for himself ,time for a spell.

Harsh words mate.

 

[dont bowl there]

Anyone have a clue why White is in the team?

 

[Biggie]

Really struggling here.

All out??

 

[fusion]

Better hope we score 300... we got a pitiful bowling attack.

Doesn't look likely. The last 5 overs have been terrible - 2/19, with some of that part of the powerplay. A run rate of 3.8 isn't good enough, especially when we were only 3 wickets down 5 overs ago.

 

[Bernie Quinlan]

What an absolute dud.

 

[Biggie]

Anyone have a clue why White is in the team?

Shits and giggles??

 

[Costanza_]

We'll be lucky to hit 250, the Saffers should romp it home with A.B.DV back in the team.

 

[Groucho]

Anyone have a clue why White is in the team?

Strike rate of 106 has probably got something to do with it.

 

[carntheroos4eva]

Anyone have a clue why White is in the team?

yes as the allrounder....

Really struggling here.

All out??

Don't be stupid

What an absolute dud.

I disagree

Doesn't look likely. The last 5 overs have been terrible - 2/19, with some of that part of the powerplay. A run rate of 3.8 isn't good enough, especially when we were only 3 wickets down 5 overs ago.

Who knows the run rate is 4.8 now

Shits and giggles??

As I said don't be stupid

 

[Bradesmaen]

So he hits 2 runs off 1 ball then gets out? Thats real handy.

 

[bluechampion]

This batting power-play sees to have been taken at a terrible time. Two batsmen who had only just settled suddenly told to up the rate... It fails and all of a sudden every new batsman sent to the crease has to go hard. Result: wickets, which equals: no runs.

Would have been a darn sight better to have one taken with Ponting and Marsh at the crease, especially as Ponting seemed to be in the mood to loft to the outfield at every opportunity.

 

[Flat Track Bully]

Mark Nicholas= comedic genius... funniest thing said ever on Channel 9 coverage

 

[Biggie]

Is 250 even possible now?

 

[Cousin Jed]

 

[fusion]

Still struggling, looked like we'd get 280+ easily, but now South Africa have turned it around. With still 7 overs to go, we're a little worried that we could get bowled out if we go too aggressively.

Laughed when Tony Grieg spoke about the wedding happening at the ground - the other commentator quipped: "Good to hear you talking about weddings on air again, Tony".

 

[bluechampion]

Curious.

 

[alfy!]

Poor finishing here by the Aussies, after a great start.

 

[pieman123]

another soft dismissal, why didnt ponting take the pp in overs 45-50??

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

Hussey no2 is gone, soft dismissal

 

[Biggie]

DUSS out to a shocking shot, caught at point.

Batting powerplay has netted 3 wickets, 2 boundaries and complete frustration for Australia and their supporters.
