made a half-century in the first test but apart form that it has been a very dry run for dravid.

i find it very interesting when people on here suggest that hayden isnt finished but dravid is when they are both in pretty similar positions with only 1 fifty this series

Dravid has had a pretty ordinary year or so, Hayden on the other hand has been out injured, so i think he deserves his chance to get back into form and he has.

krejza to get sehwag out. sehwag looks to be there for a good time not a long time. does not look like he is ready to put in some hard yards if he struggles to hit a boundary every over. he will struggle to face out a couple of quiet overs in a row. ponting will continue with krejza and hopefully sehwag loses the plot..

and REB krejza has been given the chance to bowl early on to a bloke out of form totally and he had only faced one ball! white has been bowling to blokes set on 80 odd and has got wickets.. see how krejza goes if he was getting the ball when blokes are set.

Why should Punter bowl Cameron Shite when he wouldn't even bring himself on to bowl? I must say I'm a bit perplexed by the Cameron Shite appreciation society. Even 'Right Said Fred' had at least one hit.

How many wickets does White have before India reached 500 and threw their wickets away?

EXACTAMONDO my friend. Even Shitey himself would be embarrassed by the excuses offered by Ned and CK on this site. I think they might actually be his parents!

My mate Whitey would be a better option.

The fact is that when he captains Victoria he often looks to Hodge and D. Hussey before he resorts to bowling himself. I think that really says enough about Cameron White as a bowler.

White has a bloke to bowl that is better then him in his side, Bryce McGain, so he bowls him more often! Altho i think dave hussey could definitely think himself unlucky for a late inclusion because his offies are superior to whites bowling, and even krejza at that point and bats better then white. Still think the answer is to have Katich, Clarke and THE ROY bowling! but white has bowled well and deserves his chance since roy is not there
No one had wickets before they were on 500 really. It was a batting paradise, even there spinners struggled last test! look at the circumstances when white has bowled and he has bowled well. end of argument :D

about 2-3 years both hayden and dravid were averaging about 58 in test cricket- now they both average high 52s which would indicate their form has been pretty similar recently

and scoring a fifty on a very flat track doesnt mean you are back in form

Sorry Mrs White but I disagree. Your boy has been serving up Fruit all series long and now the Indians have got the runs.

I think we can get Sachin with a straight up and down half tracker.

Who should we bowl? :-k

Hayden scored 80 odd, i think thats a fair effort and that is just a first of many big scores to come.
