wasim akram on the lbw appeal: whats going on guys? commentators felt it was out

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

Gut reaction felt it was well within the stumps. However, first innings dismissal of Jacques was very similar, only that the ball was going down the leg side and slightly clipped the leg stump. Similar decision, although they both were and should have been given in favor of the bowler.

thats lunch
india was unlucky not to get a few more wickets
72 runs for 1 wicket, at the end it was Australia's session
interesting session tho umpiring was off

The earlier we get Hussey out, the better.

He seems to have a very good plan going for himself :
Leave every ball outside off
Defend every ball that is straight on to the stumps
Only if the ball is short or on the pads, whack it for runs

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

Irfan is becoming predictable. He should bring one back into Hussey.

Sharma's spell to Ponting may turn out to be the key moment of the game unless Hussey takes Aussies home. The wicket is helping quite a bit..line and length..making the batsman play every ball should be the strategy for Indian bowlers.

Anybody know any resources for a stream? Someone i know is asking for one. Thanks.

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

The weird thing is that batting has been difficult...and the bowling has been generally good....but the wickets have not been falling.

And Asad Rauf gives a NO BALL for no reason at all. There was no way Kumble had over-stepped.

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

Hussey gone
Asad Rauf gives one

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

Good decision unless it was nicked

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

^ rightly so

I bet u Billy would have shaked hsi head at this appeal.

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

OUT! Hussey gone dont know why he was unhappy tho...inside edge?

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

height ? may be...don't know/

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

True...Billy Bowden has made a policy decision not to give any LBWs today.

Re: 3rd Test: Australia vs. India at Perth (WACA) Jan. 16-20, 2008

his back leg was bent and it hit him just above the pad...dicey but Rauf has given marginal height lbw's...at least he is consistently marginal!
