Aussies and India wait - Fox
AUSTRALIA and India will wait until inspecting a covered Gabba pitch tomorrow before selecting their teams for the one-day match in Brisbane.
Constant rain in Brisbane throughout the week is likely to see a seam-friendly wicket produced for the key VB Series clash.
The Aussies enter the match with a perfect 3-0 record following their 148-run win over the Zimbabwe in Hobart yesterday.
India has split its two matches and is determined to avenge the 18-run loss to Australia at the MCG last weekend.
Gabba ground staff may get their wish for another half a day's worth of sun to firm up the pitch with the weather forecasters expecting showers to clear tomorrow.
The tourists will consider adding left-armer Ashish Nehra to their pace attack while captain Sourav Ganguly admitted he may also bowl his own medium-pacers more.
"We'll have to have a look at the wicket, we honestly haven't had a chance to see it because it's been under covers," Ganguly said.
"We will have to see what the weather conditions are tomorrow." _________________ Donny.

Tendulkar is caught and bowled by Symonds for 88 from 95 balls.
2/147 with Laxman on 33 n.o. in the 29th. over.
The Aussies could be chasing 300. I hope so. _________________ Donny.

Laxman brings up his century from the last ball with a four. 4/303.
If anyone can tell me how the hell Lee got to bowl his 10th. over and Williams had only bowled 8 overs, will they please reply. Williams had 1/40 from 8 overs and Lee had 0/70 from 9.
Unless Williams was injured, it was sheer stupidity. Lee is no longer the golden boy of Australian cricket and hasn't been for quite a while so why is he being given favourable treatment ?? _________________ Donny.

How do they expect to win this game, let along the tournament playing this bloke. Don't wanna be a tall-poppy cutter, but blind-freddy can see that he's WAY out of form.
And don't start me on Damien Martyn either. He couldn't catch the pox, or score in a brothel with a fistfull of $50's.
What a slap in the face for Langer and Katich, both our only centurions in the last test. But noooooooooo.... can't upset "team balance"....

Hayden is on 98 and takes a 2. That's his first ODI ton in Australia.
Ooops. 1 short. He's on 99. Now 100.
4/191. 113 needed from 108 balls. _________________ Donny.

Hayden goes for 109 from 107 balls. An excellent knock which puts Australia right in this.
Run-a-ball needed and Clarke and Bevan at the wicket. Should be good. I hope JLC is watching. _________________ Donny.

Surely Martyns last game for Australia. It's beyond a joke for the guys waiting their chance outside the team.
