Australia - replace Doherty with sandhu for his debut

they are just talking in the studio about the number of ODIs and preparation for the world cup

anyone else think that teams are maybe playing too many games in the run up with all the 7 match series, playing nothing but ODIs for 2-3 months and they risk getting stale before the tournament even starts ?

wasn't just talking about this series adi

look at sri lanka , 7 ODIs just before xmas against England, a 7 ODI series against NZ now, 2 more WC warmup games before the WC starts. that's gonna be 16 ODIs in 2 months before they even start the tournament and then 7 more first round games before the tournament starts for real in the QFs

Going down leg?

[Gingerfinch]

Dhawan didn't look comfortable, and gone.

imo the more the matches and continuity the better it is from player perspective. The odd days rest is already there between two matches.

What a six from Rohit !!! Tailunt on display

[meninblue]

Gurinder bowling Abdul Razzak style

[meninblue]

Tailunt playing well so far, everything hitting middle of the bat.

[GarlicJam]

Good to have Bumbles back commentating in Aus. Now Nine just need to get a good Indian commentator on.

[Dr Cricket]

Rahul Dravid/Ganguly are pretty good commentators.

[Gingerfinch]

Bounce got him. Well done Sandhu

The top man in next.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Looks like Raina spent his time since I saw him last, eating.

not a bad way to bring up your 50
