Yuvi fails yet again

Even in the practice match Yuvraj Singh failed to make an impact as Indians resumed their on field action on Day one of the warm up match in Australia against ACT XI. Indians declared the day at 325 for 9 with Wasim Jaffer missing out a well deserved century and Rahul Dravid, the only senior in the side, contributing 68 runs in the middle order. Sehwag, who was set to find a place in the playing XI for the next test, failed to capitalise on a good start. He got out in the same fashion as he has done i the past after scoring a well conjured 24 runs. Dinesh Karthick followed him y playing a loose shot after making 25 runs. Dhoni managed just 38 runs. But the greatest failure was Yuvi, who scored only two runs. ACT XI were 10 for no loss at stumps.

Brad Hogg charged

Atlast some actions against the champion side. Acting upon Chetan Chauhan's complaint ICC has charged the Chinaman bowler, Brad Hogg, with level 3 of ICC code of conduct. It has to be noted that earlier Harbhajan was also charged under the same code and was later found guilty. Brad Hogg was seen using foul language on Kumble and Dhoni in the field. His hearing is on 14th of this month and he could also face a ban of 2-4 tests, if found guilty.
