A couple of young kids sitting behind me were complaining about it being boring, they wanted to see Smith hit lots of runs quickly, they didn't seem to understand that at 3 down with a score just over 100 with two new batsmen at the crease in a test match that would be a dumb idea.

Are you like them Brucie? Only enjoy big hits and big scores? You'll have to wait. The first T20 game is on Jan 10th.

I don't watch T20...test cricket is for me...and good bowling is just as interesting as big hits...are you seeing that at Melbourne? I am at Christchurch.

So why did you think yesterday was boring?


Anyway, another day another sarnie.



Aussies on top with 6/327 Smith on a century

India haven't beaten Australia in Australia for 35 years...it is just so exciting waiting for the next time when Australia are so ordinary...India are thinking about mummy's curry...and the third rate Channel 9 commentary team are trying to talk the series up

You Bruce are a typical Kiwi wanker that can only see black and silver, at least us Aussies can appreciate good sports wherever they come from.

^They're very balanced people Col, they normally have a chip on both shoulders .

Who's got the pub over there now, anyone know?.

hahahaha..... Wow....that's a new view of Australians I've not heard before.....

So this test series is first rate is it?...I think it is ordinary.

Who's this Bruce Bayliss clown?

Anyway....glad I was strolling past the screen this morning.....Haddin....What a catch!

He's a pretend kiwi troll. Doesn't know squat about Rugby or Cricket, but that doesn't stop him opening his cake-hole.

Anyway, game on.

Ashwin is a bit optimistic.

How is this for a test cricket venue...green grass Kiwi style not Aussie khaki...picturesque surroundings where you can smell the sweet air...room to stretch out on the grass and drink your own beer instead of that CUB urine...and watching the Kiwis against Sri Lanka...a side that are always playing like their life depends on it

Yes, very nice. Now do you have a score or a comment or are you just going to keep trying to one up?

Well...Rahane isn't ordinary by any standards...what do you say to that?

I guess not then. Why am I not surprised. Anyway, enough of engaging with the retarded faux kiwi troll.

India 3/186.

magpie...had a mate on the farm down the road...used to trap magpies with dripping in cages...then hang them up by their feet on the fence by the road...then the hawks would eat them...slowly...you obviously survived

Just checking to see you are watching both tests KW...the Sri Lankans are bogging the Kiwi attack down at 142/2

Interesting clip in the Sydney Morning Herald today...I last saw Richie in the flesh when he was in his late 50's...he looks a lot older now

and of course you know where is it don't you.

Haddin's sublime catch earlier this morning.



Haddin adds to collection of classics | cricket.com.au

but the Indians building a decent partnership. 100 up and Kohli and Rahane both looking very comfortable.

It's a lot more fun watching Aussies dropping Kiwis.

The Indians are doing a good job, but I hope they are going to make (both sides ) for an interesting finish and not for an inevitable draw.
