***Official*** India in Australia 2011/12

[Days of Grace]

FANS UPDATE:

INDIA FAN: "Was an extremely long-shot anyway. Once the lead got beyond 150 we only had a 1% chance. Now we don't even have that."

AUSTRALIA FAN: "Okay, we are defending a very mediocre target so we need everything to still go our way. Need to have them at least 5-50."

There to be hit. Well caught.

So according to the bull**** "India need Sehwag to fire" theory, that's the game. But it's not because there's a bunch of ****ing awesome batsmen to come.

Its about that 83 against ENG in chennai

 

[Stapel]

Surprise surprise! Sehwag out to a short ball on off.

It is the game.....watch

Sehwag relies so much on luck doesn't he

No more than any other batsman

 

[Prince EWS]

Australia really have bowled some absolute **** with this new ball. Worse than the terrible spell that was bowled just after tea on Day 2 IMO; they've got away with it though.

Sehwag's only 4th innings score of note?

 

[silentstriker]

You're either Gambhiring or doing the annoying massively-over-prioritising-Sehwag thing.

Either way that's a terrible post.

Gambhir is a ****ing champ. Love him.

yep..

 

[Prince EWS]

Not really related to what I was saying.

 

[NasserFan207]

Yeah, lets be honest, Sehwag NEVER fires in the fourth innings. If Dravid and Laxman fall cheaply, then Oz can celebrate.

Bit of time with the right set-up

Gambhir b.Pattinson

 

[Zinzan]

I wasn't counting the Prince of Prats since he was dropped

bowling too short .

They've been bad, but not that bad. Or at least bad in a different way- wasting the new ball rather than giving away lots of runs.

You need to get on board...

They have, the daft thing is if you had offered them the Sehwag wicket before lunch they would have taken it regardless how they bowled. Another before lunch and they are clearly in the driving seat.

This has been worse IMO. Hans't hurt as bad but the actual execution has been worse.

The short and across stuff to Gambhir is plainly a plan tbh.

 

[Days of Grace]

Gambhir hogging the strike may have had something to do with Sehwag's dismissal. Or not.
