India vs Australia - ODI

[ScouseCat]

Dravid won the toss and elected to bat first.

Nathan Bracken opened the bowling for Australia and dismissed Sehwag in the first over, a great catch by Hayden at first slip.

India: 1 for 1

 

[Fall Out Boy]

I have a feeling that Tendulkar is going to murder this Aussie attack.

 

[ScouseCat]

VVS Laxman and Sachin Tendulkar are currently at the crease, Williams and Bracken bowling for Australia.

India: 1 for 10 after 4 overs.

 

[ScouseCat]

The pitch looks like a good batting wicket, the commentators are saying India will need to score near 300 to feel confident. Tendulkar and Laxman are starting to find the boundaries, lifting the run rate in the last few overs.

India: 1 for 41 after 10 overs

Tendulkar and Laxman are slapping them. Especially Bracken.

Williams and Bichel have been guilty of straying onto the legs of Tendulkar and Laxman in the last couple of overs... big mistake!

India: 1 for 63 after 12 overs.

What are the odds of Aussie chasing 340+ on this pitch?

 

[mattyc2422]

Small small ground.

It's possible, but Tendulkar and Laxman would need to really cut loose, because India's batting falls away a little after the top 4 with Dravid due in next.

India: 1 for 81 after 16 overs

Tendulkar 53 not out
Laxman 25 not out

That is rubbish, Tendulkar and Laxman are playing well and considering our bowling attack consists of Bracken, Williams, Bichel, Harvey and Hogg, (just coming on now) we're doing ok.

India: 1 for 111 after 22 overs

Always seems to murder us on the sub-continent, he saves it up for us. The kiwis were able to contain him relatively well in the test series but no suprise to see him build a big score against us.

We seemed to have stopped the haemorraging, and have held India to less than 5 an over with 7 overs left.

 

[skipper kelly]

For anyone watching the game, is 300 going to be reachable?

 

[IceTemple]

Boy did Brad Williams just lose the plot! Great hitting by the batsman but very bad bowling.

 

[IceTemple]

The way the Aussies have started bowling under pressure then 300 is possible. I would hope the score ends around 270 tho'.

 

[IceTemple]

Oh my goodness!! If there is anyone out there watching the cricket on TV did you see Deano? How old is that guy looking!!?? I think I should go and get my cane as it makes me feel old.

 

[IceTemple]

270 would have been about right if Williams wasn't such a d*ckhead. Geez this guy has no idea how to bowl in a ODI!!

 

[hirthy]

Even Agarkar is scoring runs off him!

India 272/4 (49.0 ov)
Australia

Get Matthew Inness in there FFS!

 

[ozzult]

Agarkar completely turned that game around. Aussies need 285 to win.

 

[skipper kelly]

Australia will get the runs. No problems.
