    Craig, don't you think he deserves another chance. Any other country would relish having him intheir lineup, simply because of his limited overs accomplishments. Trevor Hohns has already said that Bevan will very likely be touring India in 2004!

    Well thats going a lil overboard, Bevan is okay in tests, he has a big problem against short pitched deliveries, I mean a BIG problem kindaa like Indian skipper Ganguly. He's good with the ball too, I think Bevan has an 8 wkt haul in test cricket. I think Australia needs another Mark Waugh...

    Bevan is a good player of spin bowling, he has played well against Indian spin in India, he may not be hitting consecutive boundaries but he shows control and remains steady thru out. Did you know Michael Bevan will be there for the Test Tour of India in 2004. no kidding Bevan will be...

    If this is how OZ plays the Indian spinners, then what about the Lanka tour. Murali will haunt them to death! once again bring back Bevan at least he tries.

    I think Patel appeals at every delivery that misses the bat, just like the Lankans and it gets quite annoying. Anway Martyn sucks, he can hardly block the spinners - I think he should get the boot after this series, I'd rather have Darren Lehmann and Clarke over Martyn, he's no Mark Waugh...

    Australia should forget about winning the game, its impossible. Martyn scares me, he won't last long. If another wkt falls by lunch, India may very well win this.

    All signs point to a draw here. 440 odd runs in a day are a bit of an ask even if Australia played 3 Gilchrists and 3 Haydens. Australia's aggression and India's patience will be tested simultaneously.

    It was interesting to watch the way Langer and Hayden threw their bats at the ball as if there is no tomorrow. If Virender Sehwag is called "reckless" then we should we call Langer "Daft". It was ridiculous to see the openers throw away their wickets in a casual way. Okay. We might argue that...

    All depends on Ganguly. Australia needs another 163 runs to avoid follow on, I strongly doubt OZ will get that - Katich is the spit holding them together. Lee, Dizzy, MacGill & Bracken are not good bats. Now this means India will very likely play 2 complete sessions tomorrow (I just can't...

    Once again, great yorker by Pathan, no left hander in the world could have played that ball. I hope Katich gets out cheap. I want Oz not to bat longer than lunch tomorrow(infact if Oz lose early wkts tomorrow, the better it is) > that way things go as planned. India bats a session or two...

    Damn Punter just got out, I hope OZ can now bat slow, as slow as possible until tomorrow lunch, a lot depends on India's second innings, too many runs means a certain draw but like someone mentioned I hope Oz is put in situation where they chase 300-350 on the last day. I don't see...

    India does have an upperhand but I'm hoping for option c) :saint: hoping against hope:rolleyes:

    *Official* India in Australia Thread

    I just don't see India winning, nor do I see Australia winning, we got 7 sessions left now on, both teams gotta bowl each other out atleast once, even if Oz declares at lunch tomorrow, things don't change... This game is draw unless we get to see someone bowl spectactularly well.

    Kudos to the openers, Langer is playing one of his best innings..just hope he doesn't misjudge the flight in ball from the spinners, like Hayden did. The match may very well end a draw! Aussie run rate is over 5 :saint:

    Hmmm, Lee sucks big time, and they say he's the second fastest - Brad would have done better. Okay Tendulkar gets a ton, that'll silence all his critics on this tour !

    Didn't I tell you Chopra was a sitting duck, a 148 k bowled out!!! take my advice always be pessimistic, and then even a single wkt will sound like a victory!!:lol: :lol: :lol: time to put your head down and go for Tendulkar.
