Re: Australia in India
Yes and No. He's risking a ban if the overs don't get through but the others may also lose part of the match fee for the slow over rate.
Still a pretty poor effort though. Had a small opportunity to win but now that is well and truly gone.

Don't be upset.
It will be a bit like a ODI for us. We could get it if we get off to a flyer.Jolldo87;279838 said:Watson comprehensively bowls Singh for 52.
What are our chances of chasing around 380?
Don't be upset.

Re: Australia in India
Did you know that we were 10 overs behind?
Did you know that Chris Broad was going to suspend Ricky Ponting because of the overrate?
Stop your whinging.
It's a fact that spinners have to be used in this case. No matter what you think.
I don't think that ponting was selfish especially after the Match Referee was onto him about the overrate.Jolldo87;279842 said:

Re: Australia in India
Fair dinkum it is going to be some chase! 4.15 an over I think is a bit too much, but hey, maybe the hungry Australia of old may poke its head out and we get there. Or is that a bit to optimistic?
Krezja is an absolute superstar! Man I love him now. Sure he goes at a rate very rarely seen in a Test match, but he gives the ball some air and a bit of rip, has a go, and has been rewarded. Not sure how he will go next Test he gets (possibly next Friday). Will he be a solid performer or just a one-Test wonder? Only time will tell

Re: Australia in India
So what if Ponting was suspended?
I'd take the Border-Gavkasar trophy and a Ponting suspension over a series loss.
Had Watson bowled earlier then we could have bowled then out sooner and actually (possibly) had a very good chance at winning.

Re: Australia in India
You wouldn't care if ponting got a 5 week suspension?
I care and so do the Aussies.
Watson couldn't bowl because of the overrate problem.
He could only bowl after we got the ok to bowl him again. It meant that we had to bowl spin for most of the last session.
It's not a limited over game so it doesn't really matter when we have to get them out.
My cousin, who works for Cricket Australia, was on the phone to the coaching staff wondering what was going on and got to have a chat to both Ricky Ponting and Chris Broad. So we know what is going.
Sounds like most of you guys don't know what you are talking about.
Um we have got NZ when we come back.Jolldo87;279850 said:
