TOPIC:

Looking at some of the body language out there today, I don't think the Indian team are very happy campers at the moment. I'm not sure that Dhoni has the support of his whole team. Credit to the Aussies for sticking to their guns when all seemed lost. Must admit I was concerned when Mitch Marsh went down clutching his hamstring given the history of the Marsh boys but fingers crossed only cramp.

Yeah I was disappointed for Paris. I thought he bowled as well as Boland in the games he played. Apparently he is available for the Scorchers.

One for the match fixing investigators to have a look at

There is a lot of propaganda on this thread

Yeah I was worried for Mitch as well.Did well to continue to bowl and pick up a couple.
By the way, what has happened to Joel Paris. They played him in the first two pressure games, and then dumped him. He has to be carrying an injury if he isn't being played.If he isn't playing the next game, will CA release him to play for the ScorchersFriday night!!!!

Paris & Boland will probably play next match at SSG. Maxwell & Marsh looked sore. Dont know why Marsh didn't go straight off. Looks like Indians play for their own glory, not a team spirit concept. Aussie batsmen got off to a flyer & the runs kept rolling. If Marsh is dropped he should be available for G/F. Paris wont play.
It's about time the wickets were well watered to give us a sample of Indian wickets

I agree mate.
How many Indian batsmen were just trying to "guide it" to Smith at slip?
John The Bookie must have been pulling his hair out when the thin edges were only going thru to Iron Gloves Wade who let's face it couldn't catch a cold in Antarctica!

.....India has a long tail and an even longer history for self implosion.....they panicked in the headlights and duly paid for it.....had to laugh at shastri's comments about India's young attack....pretty sure Australia's isn't any older?.....Would love to see Head and head get a run in the final match.....Paris too.....

Swandog: I remember Qasim Omar and the countless scandals which have blighted the game since his claims decades ago; in fact, I seem to remember two Australian players being quite fond of Indian book makers. I was referring more to nobody bothering to mention the dodgy umpirring against India. It is very hard to win matches when you have to get batsmen out twice -- Maxwell in one game and Bailey in another.

and Sharma in another Ark....works both ways mate.....anyway Bailey was first ball stuff and India had more than ample opportunity to get him out and failed....we are talking about George Bailey here mate.. hey
