Huss is batting for himself/his career. Not the team

Half way point of day 3, already game looks like it could Peter out for a boring draw unless the Aussies put the foot down or the Windies go through them quickly

Aust 3/298 after 95 overs (new ball still hasnt been taken)

Hussey 33* off of 118 balls in 158 mins (agree with catch)

Clarke 40* off of 71 balls in 96 mins

Think Gayle should take the new ball, could just be the thing to throw the match back into their favour

The start of this series was always the time to inject some youth into this Aussie team..
Despite the fantastic start to his career I felt Hussey had to be replaced by Hughes at the top (watson to the middle) or another young player to bat in the middle order (not sure who, after Ferg got injured)
Hussey will end this series with an average of 60odd and will keep his spot for another 12 months. But I don't think he's the man to help us win back the Ashes and reclaim some ground on SA and India.
Batting for himself, losing fans by the minute I'd suggest...

I'm on fire,

Clarke now gone for 71

Aust in big trouble at 6/370

Another wicket to Benn


Cant find any bookies to give any odds on Australia not having a batsman score a ton in this series
