+x+x+x+x+x+x+xif you draw the first match overseas you have a very good chance of winning the series We only needed to hold our nerve for a few hours longer what the heck happened? Shaun Marsh had a brain fade.. that is what happened. Then they fell like nine pins. We needed Marsh as the senior player to lead by example once Finch departed. Then once SOS imploded Timmy should have moved up the order to protect the two debutants. No smilies on this forum? where do you delete a post? There used to be emoticons. I think one just has to delete all words one by one. Again there used to be a mechanism to press a button and delete an entire post.  DC you can find emoticons when you access edit button. Ta.

+x+x+x+xDid anyone not see that collapse coming? Usman and Finch had a bit of luck, but the latter in particular looked good. None of the others established themselves, but I was worried about a collapse. Maxwell scored 104 off 185 was in Ranchi coming in with Australia 4/140. It was a perfect innings of getting yourself in and cashing in on the start. It seems bizarre not to select Maxwell. He also bowls finger spin and is a superb fielder. No please dont go down the Maxwell path again. The blokes middle name is "inconsistent". He can not be relied on.

CA knew about his Asian ton yet did not choose him for this tour because it is his only decent score in 7 Tests. I do not know the amount of times I have pushed Maxis barrow only for him to let us all down when we needed him most. He and Shane Watson.. two peas in a pod. Maxwells Test scores 13,8.10,8,37,4, 104, 2,8,45. The story of his career.

Holland has struck but too late to save his Test spot imho.

Didn’t realise Holland took another wicket last night.
Lyon nearly got a 4th by beating the outside edge a few moments ago.

Mark Waugh, who was a selector, can’t understand Maxwell’s omission.

No good Grazorblade, getting out to balls that don’t need playing at.

when you get hit over the top like that you actually bowl the next ball slightly slower. Use the crease and wait for a mistake
its psychological you have to be greatful when they are coming after you

But I will be questioning his next one after that shocker. A brain fade.. a wild slash at a ball he did not have to play.. a ball he never got to the pitch of. Looked like an amateur.

He is unauthodox for a wristie.. like his bouncy action gets plenty of bounce and deviation off the surface. He does remind me of Abdul Qadir.

I was surprised Paine took Laba off, after ordering a well judged review from the captain, which resulted in a Labu wicket.
