Thread: Cricket scores around the world

^India had another good day yesterday and are likely to post a respectable score.

Once again, Australia have shown how much they are dependent these days on Brett Lee being on fire. I feel rather sorry for Brett, there doesn't seem to be any support bowler around at the mo.

I suspect he misses the mentor role that Glen McGRae used to play for him....

To my mind the problem Australia have at the moment is the lack of a good spinner. Lee, Clark and Johnson will all take wickets in favorable conditions but the Indians have Kumble and the new kid Mishra in the side. There is no way there was going to be any help for the quicks on that pitch.

393-3 at lumbir Gambhir 191, Laxman 104.

Gambhir could be the first even left handed opener to score a double hundred against Australia.

Looks like Zaheer was right after the first test when he said "We've established that Australia do not have the attack to take 20 wickets"

They'd settle for 5 now.....

He is . . .

Schadenfreude is not a Freude if you're on the receiving end . . .

I've heard the Indians are taking it up to them, and the aussies dont really like it....

good for the goose and good for the gander....

Ind 515/6 at tea on the 2nd day
Some commentators are talking about a dec but I think IND should bat Aus out of the game they are 1 up in the series

Katich just went out.

1/124

4-338

Finally a backbone

given the number of drops by the Indians I wonder at the moment whether they could catch a cold!

Tendulkar scores another 100 (109) and with India at 5/311, it is difficult to see (at this point) how Aus can get the must win result from this game.

Need something special to happen, otherwise its India's series.

First ODI ENG V IND
India batting first

Roll on the test matches.

crisp start from India

incredible batting display by India.
Next match tomorrow
PK beat WI in Dubai, low scoring game.

Hussey and Clarke steady the ship!
90/3 AUS v NZ

well at tea on the first day AUS making a hash of it!
152/7 First 2 sessions to NZ!

England just lost their first wicket in the 3rd ODI against India, still a reasonable start though 80/1 from 14.5 overs.

Pietersen gone!

yeah watching it
What a stumping by Dhoni!

England gone to shit just for a change, 133/4 from 29 overs now.

Shagged by the sheep shaggers – strike me down and blow me rotten – we’re screwed, blued and tattooed boys!

I reckon we make 150, then bowl em out for 75 … they can all be in the pub by 2.00..

^ 208/9

will clarke get to 100?
