well, i hate to say i told you so, again, i swear i've said that so... .... if there's a spot open for the next match, it will be hodges, katich won't play another test, ever Well, I hate to say I told you so. Katich on 113* doesn't look to shabby does it. Pity he's never playing tests again . This is awesome Katich = Mega Champion

Yew go Clarkey! Welcome back ;D Cant believe he comes on and dominates with the ball What a champion. Poor stuff on Windies part, letting Lee (68*) and Johnson (29*) add so many runs. Thats really hurt them. Nick what the hell are you on, we have a problem with our tail? No other teams match it.

Yea good stuff Clarke, Tom that's the first time in like 5 tests that our tail has wagged, i'm not so sure about no other team has a tail that matches ours.

Congrats to the Windies, pulled off a tough task that so many fail to do. Good work from Sarwan and Chanderpaul.
As for Australia... Highlight the problem... MG Johnson 20 overs 1/70 SCG MacGill 19 overs 0/75
And one is being replaced... Whether there will be an improvement will be interesting to see. The other however probably will not be dropped, even though obvious improvement can be made! Bring in Bollinger!!!

they wont do it,
if getting tailenders didnt count as wickets mitchell johnsons average would be about 60
it just annoys me he has no wickets until he just bounces out 10 and 11 and gets 2/60 or 2/80
grrrr

Thats exactly what frustrates me. His figures make him look respectable, but the majority of his wickets are the tail. I also know its going to take a beating for him to be dropped.

Well once again Symonds top scores for us with a 50.

Wish he could go on with it though. Some pretty soft dismissals in that lot.
Casson, Lee and the rest of the tail will get us up over 300, but its not looking good.
Australia will bat much better in the 2nd innings, I think a lot of them would have learnt their lessons about hooking after that performance.

Noo Johnson 4 wickets... 3 were the tail. Im sick of this pretender. I went to bed after his first 3 overs and he was about 0/28 and I thought "Yay, finally this will get Johnson cut". Was not happy to wake up and find out he took 4. Lee and Clark did the real work. The CricInfo headline Johnson's Best Puts Australia on Top is BS But yeah the Windies have missed a big chance to win a game here.

Lol c'mon Tom 2 were tail enders, Bravo and Ramdin a middle order. Still I see what your saying, He should be taking top order wickts like Lee and Clark, Lee took bth Openers. Good bowling, he got 3 for and Clarke, Clark and Symonds all pitched in with a wicket. Did you also notice that all ten wickets were catches, strange.

Yew Katich and Jaques!!! The NSW opening partnership fires at full force ;D I was right about the batting being much better in the 2nd innings. Hopefully Katich goes on for a 200 in what may be his last test (For the moment anyway). (Im going by the fact that everyone will be fit for India). He only needs 14 more runs to be the top run scorer for the series, my bet is looking a good chance!! I tell you what, Huss hasn't had the best series has he? Highest score of 56 with an average of 22 (Beaten by Brett Lee with 34). Very unlike Mr Cricket.

johnson bowls pies his wickets Bravo - caught down leg side trying to smoke a pie Ramdin - out of form, hardly scored a run (bar one 49) all series the last two are tail-enders,
and now he's making demands for the new ball?
good luck

who will get picked for australia's next test
katich or jaques?
dont go on preference, i think the selectors have a tough choice
wait i've got a better idea a) who should they choose b) who will they choose

Post by ::Richo:: on Jun 15, 2008 19:17:43 GMT 10
I hve know idea who they should choose they've both been up and down.
They will keep Jaques being the emcumbant (i think that's how you spell it)

Post by TC Ink on Jun 16, 2008 14:13:52 GMT 10
Jaques will hold his spot of course. Johnson with another marvellous bowling performance today. Congrats to Casson on his first test wicket Katich only need 5 more runs to be the highest Aussie run scorer of the series Damnnn. Good to see Haddin in the runs.

Yay, another win ;D Congrats to Casson on his 3 wickets, a lot of people are bagging him out but his figures were good and he did better than Johnson Im glad the Windies put up a good fight, made it an interesting series. Still lacking in a lot of areas though, but they are on their way to moving up the test rankings. Now bring on the shorter form of the game!
