Aus v India 4th test, day 1

Can India avoid the whitewash?

posted on 24/1/12

Also, why did sehwag bowl more overs than yadavster?

Afridi....cheers.

The bowling straight after lunch needed to be good and it wasn't...terrible in places and took the noose off the Aussie in doing so.

I can't see any bowling attack getting India out twice on this pitch to be honest.
Surely 2 or 3 of the big guns will hang in there and generate a big score.

With very hot conditions expected all week, the bowlers are going to have to be looked after somehow by the captains which makes me feel Clarke will bat if possible until mid afternoon.

Draw for me....

Same old story.Aussie victory is a forgone conclusion.

I can't see Austalia losing, but I also can't see them winning.....to bowl out a team twice in these conditions when the series is already wrapped up is not plausible, to hot and no real incentive to bend the back, maybe if it was 1-1 and the series on the line....then yes they might, but I can't see past a draw personally.

They are rubbish aren't they? Not much more to add these days.

Agree testmatch. The Indians are a lost cause for the forseeable future, until they find replacements. By that, I don't mean the woeful sehwag.... Did you see some of his fielding placements yesterday?.... Laughable at best..... Bring back Dhoni anyday.

Do you remember Dhoni taking off his Wicket keeping gloves in England and having a bowl? and if I remember rightly, it was with the new ball lol. Shambles. Personally I love their demise and is there any chance your boys can play them soon? I would love watching you beat them 4:0 too

Test,

Yes, i do remember that, dhoni at least fought it out to the bitter end on that tour, unlike some of the others..... Have you heard Gambirs recent comments?? I think he's still got a headache from his fall at the oval back in the english summer

Afridi. Tears are welling up in my eyes again as I picture him dropping the catch, tripping over his claud hoppers and smacking his head in the turf. Seen his comments mate and he is definitely still struggling lol
