Re: Australia vs India - Border Gavaskar Trophy
Yuvraj is nothing but flat track bully, when he comes up against a quality attack he gets found out.It's all right spanking Pakistan around on roads in India but facing that the Aussie attack is a whole different ball game.Bring Sehwag in for Yuvraj and drop Dravid down to three.Sehwag did well in Australia last time round.

Re: Australia vs India - Border Gavaskar Trophy
I guess its obvious that the Indian selectors dont read this forum, because they've left Sehwag out of the 13
. in fact they may keep the same team, although pathan may replace khan (who may be injured). and pathan may even be asked to open!

Although the potential decision is highly ludicrous, Pathan has opened before in two innings - he scored 93 and 6. The 93 was on, by no means a flat pitch and the 6 was part of India collapsing for 100 all out.

Re: Australia vs India - Border Gavaskar Trophy
wow, that was the most amazing day of cricket i have seen in a long time. lots of wickets and amazing strokeplay, and the 2nd highest first day total at the SCG. good on george, wonderful innings, right up untill he started to think about the ton. well played hundred by symonds although VERY lucky not to have been given out. well paced nevertheless. australia in a resonobly strong position consider they were 6/134

Australia recovered very well from 134/6. It seems like they will be able to post a score in excess of 400. Australia had some luck, but India will need a lot of it and some determined batting if they have to get near Australia's score.

Re: Australia vs India - Border Gavaskar Trophy
Brad Hogg made a valuable contribution with the bat. If he bowls well then it would be pretty hard for MacGill to make a comeback. Symonds was brilliant. He is still unbeaten so Australia have a good chance to score something like 450.
India has bowled well until now and failed with the bat. If Rahul Dravid struggles again India will fail. I think his over defensive batting puts unnecessary pressure on the middle order.

Zaheer Khan has been rules out for the entire series.
Its a big blow for India. Zaheer was in terrific form. I hope that VRV Singh has improved since he last played for India.

Re: Australia vs India - Border Gavaskar Trophy
Well played india is what i should be saying but it ended up with me having to blame the umpires, a clear caught behind can be missed sometimes and forgiven but come on 3rd umpires cannot get away with mistakes like that. Lucky australia have been dug out a hole.

Re: Australia vs India - Border Gavaskar Trophy
Laxman has given good start to india. Dravid is playing over defensively again but Laxman has a strike rate of more than 100
Dravid should rotate the strike more because the other batsmen will suffer because of him. Defensive play will never work against australia.
They only say it after the ball has been played not before. The players would definately complain to the umpires otherwise.kizza said:
