***Official Australia in India***

Looking at the way this pitch is seaming around atm , i am just wondering whether Punter could have opted to bowl first on this pitch.

glad he didnt -- cant imagine our middle order out there in the first session

Ponting officially improving on his average in India now, proved critics wrong already imo

Haha, CricInfo guy getting defensive;

"Lots of emails coming in regarding my comment on over 5.2 regarding this being Kumble's last Test in Bangalore. No, it is not "wild speculation". Kumble announced this yesterday."

Indians seem to be bowling very straight to the Kat. Reckon they're being fooled by his shuffling across. Oh well, I'm sure he won't mind helping himself to all the easy runs behind square.

Nah, no way. Unless the weather looks to be clouding over for the day, you'd want to bat first and just try to get through the zip in the first hour when the ball is new and the pitch is yet to settle. Fully expect the spinners to take some tap.

I guess you are right, Aussies won't wanna bat last here against the Indian spinner, and whatever life is there in the pitch atm would go once the sun comes out, so Punter and Katto should try to see off that peroid.

Btw, mate i just forgot to mention this, great avatar you have got there atm....

So, this is test match mate and one doesn't need ride their horses here as long as they score some runs, and in Ponting' case he would be elated, that for a change he is scoring some runs in India.

 

[Speersy]

Thats the ponting I love, brilliant shot

 

[NZTailender]

How's Kat looking? I have no tv coverage.


And to be honest, I don't want any live streams, so if you know of any please, whatever you do, don't email the link to etendard@gmail.com because you'll be wasting your time.

 

[JackPot]

just abt time for bowling change now, may be in another over or two.....

wonder who will kumble bring on...any gangu medium pacers?

 

[Nate]

Tendulkaresque from Punter.

 

[Top_Cat]

And now he's hitting on the up through cover. Oh man, this is really bad signs for India. They'd be feeling it too.

 

[Speersy]

Ohh O, this could be interesting. Hate to see what Harbhajan whould do it he got Ponting in this spell.
