This Aus team has to be the best fielding side ever assembled. They've taken it to a new level.

Pathetic and predictable.

great fielding by Australia but you have to question some of the batting especially the captain with so long left getting caught out in the deep.Still he has done it for years and still hasn't learnt.

15 All out... by now the 150 all out scoreline for England has become quite bloody infamous. What a fielding side Australia has, i have said this vefore i think but they seem to field at almost superhuman levels!!!

Fitting End to things.

Well done Hodge, duck on his comeback game. Dont think we will be seeing much of him in the future.
Australia 30/2. Pity England scored so little. Lets see Clarke now under a bit of pressure.

Anderson got a wicket... O...M...G...

Yeah, i think that's pretty much sealed Hodges fate as an ODI player. Time to give D.Hussey ago if they have to select a Victorian.

Maybe it'll come down to Mcgrath to score a 50no in his final GABBA appearance?

3 down now. I think Symonds will go soon too. To make a real game of this, England need to get rid of Hussey and quickly.

How good is D Hussey, some say he is better than Mike but I find that hard to believe. Can he open the batting because I believe its time to replace Hayden. When last did he get a big score.

It's all setting up perfectly for Mcgrath.

Curiouser and curiouser . . . Australia four down now!

Just like in Hobart when I write the game off it all starts to get interesting.

Symonds out, like a called it in my last post. Australia 4 down. I have said this before and I say it again. England need Hussey's wicket and soon. If this happens, we will see if White has any guts or if he is gutless like Symonds. Its amazing what Ponting adds to this side. He is truly a great player.

Good call on Symonds.

D.Hussey, despite being brothers, is a completely different player to Mike. A flamboyant hard hitting right hander with a huge backlift, whereas Michael is more of a defensively sound, compact grafter. So its hard to compare who's best, but its hard to go against Mikes career record. David has never opened in any form of the game as long as i can remember, so i doubt he'd get a position opening. Presuming Hayden hasn't done enough to secure his position, that will either fall to Watson or Jaques.

speaking of Hussey, if they can get him out within the next 5/7 overs, Aus could really struggle to chase these, only for Mcgrath to come out and hit Australia to victory of course.
