3rd Test Australia Vs West Indies at the WACA

[spell_check]

First time that two left handers opened the bowling for Australia since 1973/74 when Tony Dell and Geoff Dymock opened against New Zealand.

[spell_check]

50 to Gayle, 6 to bring it up. 52 he has now off 34 balls, 0/69 the score.

TEA
AU 7/520 DEC on a tar pitch, cannot understand why a skipper 1-0 up in a series declares
WI O/69 [11]
DOWLIN 15*[33]
GAYLE 52*[34] sensational batting

WI should have been chasing close to 600 and starting thier innings by tea time
Are now 451 behind at tea time

[locky801]

Gayle now 82* off of 56 balls as Clarke drops him at slip

WI 0/113

Current run rate 5.65 RPO and still 30 odd overs to be bowled today

[locky801]

GAYLE just puts one on the roof of the Lillee Marsh stand, bet this guy goes on with it and gets well over a ton

Gayle 91 off of 66 balls

0/125

[spell_check]

Gayle, what a six! Huge! That's close to or equals the Brett Lee video I posted!

[cripple]

could be the biggest six i have seen. that was huuuuuge

[spell_check]

Actually, I had a look at Google Earth and using the measuring tool, I think if it continued on its' way it would have been roughly 120m.

[locky801]

100 to Chris Gayle with his 6th six, off of 70 balls fifth fastest test century ever,
What a great knock

[spell_check]

Awesome innings, I specifically love how he is going about it to chase 520 down as quickly as he can. (almost single handedly)

[locky801]

Gayle gone, ct Watson off of Bollinger

WI 1/136

[cripple]

what a waste. lets see if this gives the rest of the order some confidence against this awestruck bowling attack

So what's the difference between that innings and Katich's innings? 3 runs.

***ing clowns. Chokers? Get off it.

Then again, people also go on about getting out soon after a century instead of going on with it.

Bottom line is: Would you rather a 10-20 score, or 80-110?

Think the difference in the match is quite substantial. It has given the windies the impetus to be maybe 300 down instead of 400 down after day 2. Whilst australia are still definate favourites, it has given the windies a shout if one other batsman can get a big score

100 to Chris Gayle with his 6th six, off of 70 balls fifth fastest test century ever,
What a great knock

Interesting to note that four of the top six fastest 100s have been scored by West Indians: Richards, Gayle, Chanderpaul and Fredericks. The other two are from Australians: Gilchrist and Gregory.

and 3 of them at the WACA ground (Gayle/Fredericks/Gilchrist)

[Dogwatcher]

That's a good point.

[cripple]

aussies seem to be sending down alot of short ones at the moment and the windies handling them well. think they need to get it up there a bit more
