Australia v India Thursday 11/12/14

Yesterday I had a day out at the test Cricket between India an Australia at the Adelaide Oval.
An absorbing day's cricket.
It was full of tension due to the psychological barriers all players have been facing since the recent death of Australian player Phillip Hughes.
I came away having enjoyed the cricket but uncomfortable about where the game is going and the demise of what was the world's best Test Cricket Ground in the Adelaide Oval.
Nonethe less I took my usual share of pictures and a few are here.

Today I had the privilege of being able to spend a day at the cricket at Adelaide Oval and to see both Michael Clarke and Ricky Pointing score double centuries.
I took lots of pics and I think I captured about 6 wickets on camera.

A great innings

I haven't gone through and edited and counted photos as yet.
I have posted a few tonight and will post some more by the end of the week.
Australia are in a very commanding position having scored more than 600 and India 2 out at stumps.
