Day After Day After New Year Test: Australia v India @ Sydney (Tue-Sat)

[aussierulesrules]

Wow. How much swing is Hilfy getting?

 

[Blue and Gold Blood]

That early wicket makes up for the "it's my land goongala" BS that went on before the national anthems.

Starting to get sick of that crap before the start of every major event.

Loving it!

UP in Queensland we missed all that crap. Feel sorry for you Mexicans.

 

[eddiesmith]

I think Lyon should open the bowling in the 2nd innings

Amen to that.

 

[thecatattack]

That was a good shot.

Would love it to swing first day, get them out cheap. Then it dry out and flatten and we score 500 +.

Though not confident with our middle order.

 

[Glacier]

Well and truly over it. It sounds a bit like the Tiger slam or Serena slam to me. Sporting stars who the media love having some sort of achievement made up for them and a big deal being made of it.

I would say 100 international hundreds is a pretty big deal

God I love your optimism, but cannot see our batting line-up score 500.

Why I had the second line...

 

[Simple Jack]

Certainly, and when he gets into the 80's start talking it up.

Don't start every innings once he gets to 20.

 

[mike14]

it's an incredible achievement for sure. But how often are 'international' stats used in cricket? generally they focus on either test or ODI stats, they don't combine them.

Good on Sacchin when he gets there, it's a fantastic feat, but the build up/carry on is over the top IMO

 

[Baby_Jenks]

God I love your optimism, but cannot see our batting line-up score 500.

Easy. Patto scores 150, Siddle 100, Hilf and Lyon get a 50 each. Leaves the openers a.k.a. our top 7, to get 150 between them. Easily doable.

Our top order still wouldn't be able to score 150.

 

[thecatattack]

Lol @ Siddle.

 

[dan warna]

Our top order still wouldn't be able to score 150.

Hussey and Punter are good for 60 each, the rest should be able to scramble 30 between them.

 

[Baby_Jenks]

Dhoni is due to let Mr Tra have a big score.

 

[grizzlym]

Well, then it's fair to say our top order should be able to get 150 across two innings. Provided, of course, we have an ounce or two of luck.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Hilfenhaus swinging it too early and not always getting them playing.

 

[Blue and Gold Blood]

Lol at Haddin solo appeal for LBW for ball bouncing 10 feet over the stumps.

Patto and Hilfy need to get more on target....

 

[Baby_Jenks]

Well, then it's fair to say our top order should be able to get 150 across two innings. Provided, of course, we have an ounce or two of luck.

If not we can always start crying and yelling and stamping our feet about the 'cheating' Indians or the 'influenced' umpires.

 

[Eth]

Did you just say our top seven are capable of scoring 150+?

 

[larrikin]

First day back at work and the test starts. Add insult to injury, left the little radio at home...

 

[Baby_Jenks]

With the help of the extras. I'm a realist
