I did not see any topic on dis series..so I made the topic...😛
Let's discuss about the ongoing test match series between the two teams..😛
Day 1 and Day 2

I feel that Australia could have performed better..after falling out for 430 runs..Ricky Ponting came out blazing..n Hussey is in great form..I think Katich Ponting and Hussey were brilliant in d match..especially wid deir shot selections..and I dont think any one actually played too much role..in batting..I think the partnership of Hussey and haddin and Hussey and Lee were crucial..and cause of that dey reached 430..I think dey messed it up in the last session..wen Lee gt out for his nice 27 runs..and Zaheer took 3 wickets immedietely after that..and wow he got a 5 wicket haul..in d first innings..I think Zaheer(with 5 wickets) and Ishant Sharma (with 4 wickets)were the pick of the bowlers..and now India is batting..Sehwag is brilliant as usual..and I hope Gambhir and Sehwag..hv a good opening partnership...
So do join me in discussing abt..d matches..😳in dis series..
