Any changes to the Aussie team MT?

Who did the Indians drop for Tendulkar?

And did Matthew Hayden play another one of those impatient stupid shots ??? :-\

No change for the Aussies WP.

Yuvraj Singh. No surprise.

Nah Matty actually got out (caught behind to Khan) to a good ball for a change. Copped a couple of beauties in a row. First one beat him; the next got the nick.

Aus 1/79 (20 overs)

Langer  44*
Katich     3*

At stumps

Aus 7/362   :thumbsup

Martyn 114
Lehmann 70
Clarke 73*
Gillespie 4*

4 runs an over for a whole day of test cricket on a supposedly seaming wicket :o. Helps when the Indian keeper can't catch  ;D.

Lehmann's done his hamstring and is out of the series. Probably the end of his international career. Solves the selectors problem with Ponting and Clarke.

Martyn was on fire, graet to see. Was surprised to see Harbajhan Singh not playing, should be a bonus for us :thumbsup

Yeah RR, strange they dropped the bloke that we've had trouble against in the past. No complaints here  :thumbsup.

Martyn's rescued his test career this tour after a lean period not so long back. Clarke was on fire as well. Gillespie will be licking his chops to have a bowl on that green top.

Not dropped, injured MT.
Not sure what the injury is. Hope it's not serious because last time I saw him his head was bandaged and he had a big lump on top. 8)

Nah WP. Clarkey was last out for 91. McGrath made it to double figures not out 11*. No falling in a heap from him  ;D.
