What a rotten way for Hussey to get out, couldn't get the bat out of the way quick enough and inside edged it onto the stumps for 91.
Since then Pup and Gilly have been rebuilding by going on the offensive - Gilly just cut Freddie away violently past point for 4, and then Clark deflected Hoggy off his legs to deep mid on for 4 more. But it's an uphill struggle to get to 400 I reckon. We may get past the follow on, but not much further than that. |

I'm still livid that Giles dropped Ponting when Aus had about 89. Think he may have dropped the test there...

Ponting does not give many chances and you have to take them. Ive not seen much if anything of Giles replacement Monty but surely he can bowl better and cant be a worse fielder? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

So Hoggard finaly bowled Australia out! A lead of a hundred at the change of innings and Monty in the team might have seen the poms still in with a chance but the only result now is a draw or Warne to spin an Australian victory.

A very exciting final session now! Like a one day match. Shame about the borefest for the first three days.

LOL - 550 behind after one innings - and we still win .
That has GOT to hurt [img]smile.gif[/img] . Loved Petersen giving away the 7 to Pup - classic.
