and when Tim Paine's playing he's a gun too. not sure why, we are a very small state but produce some awesome cricketers.

Woops Tim Paine is 3rd on My List ahead of Travis Birt! I love the Scenery In Cricket Ground!

[ooneil]

Well done Punter - well deserved. Let go 300!

 

[kingjack]

Ricky Ponting you legend, Go on to 300!

 

[theflyinggerco]

How many does Clarke want on the board before he declares? Or is it an issue of how much time he wants to bat for?

I say he'll want at 10 overs at the Indians at the end of a session. Which session that is (the last session of today or the morning session tomorrow) I think Is the question. But he'll give Ponting the chance to score as many as possible ie hit a triple century.

I'm thinking they'll declare (if they aren't bowled out first) before lunch tomorrow.

Well done Punter - well deserved. Let go 300!

And that 242 was at this ground too.

It's also the highest score by batsman who then scored a duck in his next innings...

Huss gone for 25, run out by Gambhir.

Time for Haddin to cash in, on a flat deck with tired bowlers, or maybe it'll be Wade keeping when the Aussies arrive in the Caribbean

 

[Harsha_12]

Great Catch by Tendulkar. A Great Inning by a Champion Comes to an End!

Ricky "Punter" Ponting!

 

[theflyinggerco]

Punter gone for 221, pulling Zaheer Khan straight to Sachin at deep midwicket. Shame he couldnt match the new captain's triple in Sydney
