Severe lack of cric. Nothing til Boxing Day, really.

India 72-2 after 15 overs in their chase of 300+ against Australia.

faulkner tried to high five brad haddin and ended up poking him in the eye. Haddin had to go off and be replaced by hughes behind the stumps.

Don't think he came back on the field so hopefully it's not another Boucher of an injury. Didn't look that bad though so should be fine.

Australia won comfortably by 72 runs. India bowled out for 232. Mitchell Johnson is bowling well these days. 0-1 in the 7 match ( ) ODI series.

Elsewhere, in the Bangladesh versus New Zealand game, some fakeyank scored a ton and took a hat-trick. On the scorecards, they seem very competitive against New Zealand. Would rather be taking on West Indies than Bangladesh at the moment - Deshi's are on the up.

Ishant Sharma is stealing a living. So is Vinay Kumar. Slaughter live on Sky Sports 1 as we speak.

India 18/5 (odds, not the score) to chase down 360. Wanted longer odds because I reckon Walt Dhoni could get them there.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Didn't even need him. That's a comically good run chase.

Kohli is a fucking genius. Incredible player.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aussies.

What a thrashing.

One of the funniest things in cricket is when medium pacers think they're rapid and keep banging it in short. Sort your life out Shane Watson. On the other hand, Mitchel Johnson bowling at 94mph destroyed India's top order.
