Thread: YAY it is Cricket time again

1st test if it was for the 2nd day being washed out australia would have won
2nd test australia should have won
3rd test absolute thrashed

So what's the prediction for today? SL's can win if they up the run rate just a little. 250 runs in 60 overs should not be hard. Still... a wicket or two and the Aussies may have a chance still!

I feel like the game is fair even, but the odds on betfair are AU: 2.1 SL: 34! Really???

Ponting to be recalled for Boxing Day test.....that gets my vote

Retired for 1 match. haha that would be a classic.

i dont reckon Wato is the right guy to lead a test team........if he did surely Hussey would be heavily involved.....

thats the problem we have when you dump Hadden and Ponting retires.where is the experience?

Maybe bring back Hadden i.e rotate the keepers

Maybe recall ponting....not as silly as it sounds

Warney is in australia at the moment......not for his bowling but his cricket brain......

i would sooner see haddin in then wade.

So would I but it looks like someone, somewhere likes Wade.Must be very disheartening for Haddin as he is by far the best keeper and has a good cricket brain.

As for the last test against South Africa,the selectors stuffed up again by selecting the wrong bowlers,sometimes one would think they did not want to win the series.
My thoughts,
John.

23 overs left with 166 runs needed. I feel that all 3 results are still possible, but most likely a draw. Inevitable really, with Clarke & Hilfie broken, even Wade getting a bowl today!
