    What the hell happened? I woke up in the middle of the night, watched 40 minutes and went to bed with Australia on about 36-4. All over I thought I doubted they'd even get 100. :shock:

    Shaun Marsh batted really well. When he was on 59, Australia in all sorts and in comes Dougie Bollinger. Whose batting is probably the equivalent of Mcgrath's if not worse. Anyway, Dougie batted like a champ, scored 30 which is awesome. Marsh went on to score a ton. Hit a six to bring up 100.

    Then Dougie backed up with Strauss LBW, K.P first ball bowled for 0. Trott and Bell both batted well but both gave their wicket away. Tait got an awesome catch, then Dougie picked up another 2 wickets, Watson and Clarke both got run outs. And Australia won :D:D:D .

    Bresnan came on with a runner. SO he might be out for the series. Looks almost certain that Hauritz and Tait will be. Felt sorry for Hauritz. Battled all summer to get in the side. THen innocuously does his shoulder or some sort of injury to his right arm. Terrible...

    I saw stuart broad run drinks out when Marsh got out tonight. He must be well on the mend and may play a match out here.

    In for a good finish I think

    Love the commentary.

    J.B says that the D.J at the ground needs some new material. 'Like Kings of Leon or Pearl Jam'

    Don't worry, if the stupid selectors keep picking Michael Clarke you may win 4-3.
