Quite a turnaround from the second test of 2007 right chaps?

Player. If Tendulkar approved, then so would the board.

I think it will take one of Tendulker, Dravid, Sehwag, Laxman or Dohni to get an absolute howler of a decision when they are in the 90's, for them to change their/his mind. I hope it happens, as it will show them that the system is good.

DRS leveler--Haddin was out I think.

Not quite, still one more.

Siddle just middled a leave for 4, lol.

I was really impressed by Cowan to be honest; I think he has what it takes to do well at the top level.

Ponting nearly made a huge impression.

Of course.

Two recognized batsmen versus a wicket keeper batsman - that equals out.

people get bad decisions, everyone who has ever played the game has got them. you have to stop bitching and get on with it.
poor decisions even up over time.

Think you've missed my point. Every other team is happy to have DRS, but India isn't. If one team wants it, then it should be in play imo. If India don't want to use it, that's there choice, but that shouldn't mean the team that want it also misses out.

well said buzz. back to the game, Yadav and sharma were clocking up 145kph consistantly, good pace. I think Fletcher must have had a word with sharma regarding his wrist action, as he was not keeping it behind the ball.

The australian commentators do crack me up though! Healy came up with 'the swami army'

I think the home team should have the final word on drs

Dont we all love the game..lol

I think it's the reaction that will be different, aussies won't try and take their bat and ball and go home just get on with trying to win the game.

Yes, they ARE at home..lol.

No I do get your point; sometimes winning might mean more to someone/some-side than the others depending on the circumstance....kind of a complicated story as it goes beyond cricket per se.

What did you make of Cowan though? He looked impressive.

Sure, they'll just bowl underarm rollers and use aluminium bats!!!!
