Re: Australia in India
My word, we really need to break this partnership!
And Krezja, has he got confidence or what? After getting carted for something like 32 off 3, most spinners would've given up on flighting the ball to keep down the runs. But not Krezja, he kept it high, and didn't it pay off? Dravid and the big wicket of Sewag
Krezja should've played all series in my opinion. White has only had one performance of note, and that was hid 42 last Test. Krezja in his first Test, 2 wickets, although he has been expensive. And if he is persisted with, he is going to learn a lot.
Just my opinion

Re: Australia in India
Just got my first glimpse of the game
Krezja in - good
Wait, what's that? White is still in the team?
Andrew Hilditch got some 'splainin to do

Re: Australia in India
Tendulkar gets his 40th test match ton. What a champion, what a player
Dropped twice but no-one remembers that in 20 years when they are going through the stats
Krezja i have been impressed with his effort and continule tossing the ball up to the batsman.

Re: Australia in India
Krejza's been okay in my opinion. Still pretty expensive but at least he's been prepared to take a few chances and keep the ball flighted. 3/138 isn't the best but at least he's taken a few wickets.
Dropping Tendulkar will hurt them though. Can't afford to drop Sachin and he's already gone and rubbed it in. Must take quick wickets tomorrow if Australia want to stay in the series, Brett Lee needs to take some wickets here.

Re: Australia in India
Sachin only got 20 or so more runs after the drops so it won't be crucial, but the Aussie team of old wouldn't have dropped those.
Re: Krezja- I don't care if he averages 40 per wicket- at least he's getting them. We havent bowled out India much this series- and that's because we're not getting the wickets.
But have a look at this bowling lineup.
Lee, Johnson, Watson, Krezja, White
A long long way away from the days of McGrath, Lee, Clark/Gillespie, Warne etc
They'd be turning in their beds when they saw that lineup!

Re: Australia in India
I can explain this to you. Whenever you go over to India in some towns you can get something that is so similar to gastro that it's not funny. White is in the side because Stuart Clark has got Delhi Belly..... Also Michael Clarke has been sick with it, as have half of the team.....a for effort;278859 said:

If he couldn't pretend to be a spinner he's not going to be able to cover for a fast bowler
