Pura Cup: Victoria vs. South Australia

[Fall Out Boy]

Cosgrove dropped Hodge.

Time for Hodgey to make them pay.

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Surprised that Tait wasn't given a chance first up.

Perhaps he's injured.

Regardless, with the low cloud, SA might have a chance to take a few wickets this morning.

 

[onslaught]

anyone having problems with the the Cricinfo scores for the game? Mines gone back to stumps day 1 even after force refreshing..

[Russian]

Yep, 2nd time this morning i.e. 27 minutes

Hodge 55, Elliot 28, 1/87

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Cricinfo is constantly going back to stumps scores for me, very frustrating.

 

[ross gibbs]

regardless of opinion lehmann is a monty to go to sri lanka.
vic 91/1 and tait yet to bowl.
long day ahead for the jellybacks

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Hodge has scored 37 in 31 minutes himself today.

Amazing.

 

[onslaught]

Hodge 59no and looking good again... scoring quickly.. Is he gunning for Martyn's spot in the Aus side?

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Miller replaced Rofe, surely Tait has to be injured.

Just the disease that seems to be passed between Redback captains, here he is.

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Baffling decision.

Tait's worst is more dangerous than anything Mick Miller will ever bowl.

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Elliott dropped by Boof Lehmann.

1/103

122 runs from hosting the final.

 

[dan warna]

400 runs from declaring...

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Hodge gone for 73.

Time for Mossy to turn around his recent form.

 

[Russian]

Hoo ****ing ray

Was gonna give up on this game and watch the 2nd XI game but we're 0/87 there

Good to see some youngsters playing in the 2nd XI - Fitzgerald, Higgs, Johnson

and the 12th man for the 1st XI is bowling 2nd change for the 2nd

Let's have a few more s

Geez, a bit critical. He missed out in the last game (27 & 8), but he's got 615 runs at 55 this season...not long enough to get out of form!

I did say recent, didn't i?

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Good little fightback from SA.

5 runs and a wicket from the last 5 overs.

 

[Fall Out Boy]

2/138 at lunch.

Excellent comeback from the Redbacks, although i think the horse has bolted.

 

[dan warna]

moss hasn't shown too often in his career an ability to slaughter attacks, he's more of an accumulator.

hodge on the other hand...

 

[bluechampion]

Sloooooow

Gah... the go-slow continues.

Mossy has made about 20 runs off 60 ballss and Elliot has made maybe 60 of about 4000 balls.

Is this very disciplined bowling from the Redbacks, or something else?

 

[dan warna]

nah, mossy is on all out attack mode from the sounds of it by his standards anyhoo...

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Half way through day 2 we're 28 runs off first innings points.

So are hard to please.

 

[bluechampion]

interest

I'm not complaining... I want the win first and foremost. It's just hard to accurately judge how the game is flowing with the commentary on baggygreen. I'm genuinely interested to know what Elliott (in particular) has been going at such a slow pace, and what implications it has for the state of the game.

Plenty of time left in the game.

Even if we go at this rate for another day, we'll be 300 clear with a day and a half to play.

Time isn't important, that's probably why Elliott is playing it slow.
