Great company : nice to see him score another Ton at the same but improved Venue.

It was .... but I didn't like his "C'mon" celebration a la Lleyton Hewitt.  However, I guess it showed his 'fire in belly' enthusiasm.

Watched his interview with Mark Taylor the other day where he spoke of how much his first Test ton (which was in Adelaide) meant to him so it was great that he followed it up again at the same ground as Cappo and definitely leading from the front ....... Well done !!!

I don't think so mate.
But he played well. And I think this is going to be a lame draw with such a placid surface, just two days to go. Don't think any of the team would be able to bowl out the other cheaply because only that could produce a result in this match.

My apologies. It was his 7th. I waited for teh ton and my eyes and fingers were a lil slow ::LOL::

96.1  Johnson to Saha, no run, yorker outside off, Saha digs it out     

96.2  Johnson to Saha, no run, 141kph, good length ball on the stumps, Saha defends gingerly 
   
96.3  Johnson to Saha, no run, sees the short ball early and Saha arches himself back and away from the line of the ball. Love that he always keeps his eyes on the ball and doesn't turn his back on the bouncer     

96.4  Johnson to Saha, no run, back of a length and outside off, let through to the keeper 
   
96.5  Johnson to Saha,  banged in short and at the body - quite an acute angle, actually -,

Saha veers away and realises he also has to pull his bottom hand off the bat.Brilliant leave  
 
96.6  Johnson to Saha, back over the wicket, Saha pushes it to cover and the umpires call time

104.3
Johnson to Saha, FOUR, beautiful stroke from Saha. He's looked sharp on the front foot this morning and this was overpitched outside off. Driven sweetly through cover

104.1
Johnson to Saha, FOUR, juicy full toss outside off, Saha throws his bat at it and picks up the first boundary of the morning through extra cover. Almost seemed surprised by the run-scoring opportunity, but managed to capitalise

Lyon to RG Sharma, OUT, he's caught it! What a soft dismissal! It was a loopy delivery outside off and Rohit has come down the track to try and nudge it away. But all he's managed is return the ball back into the bowler's hands. Lyon had to dive to his right off his follow through and just about holds on

RG Sharma c & b Lyon 43

#140
406 - 7

110.2

Siddle to KV Sharma, OUT, bowled im! a really full delivery that catches Karn on the crease and

forces him to play across. The closed face misses, the ball crashes into middle

KV Sharma b Siddle 4
