Wi vs Asutralia -3rd test preview

The third Test between the West Indies and Australia begins on December 16 th at Perth. As far as the Frank Worrell Trophy is concerned, the series is no longer a competition. Australia will retain the trophy regardless of the outcome of the third (and final) Test match. This series , however, is not solely dependent on a Trophy to ensure competiveness. Australia has been having, by their standards, a very poor year. The Ashes loss is sure to still be in the minds of the players and they will be desperate to get a convincing win, if only to get the media off their backs.

actors who have been anonymous since a big role/ roles (during that year). ( post 1990)

1. Adrien Brody Last memorable performance : Władysław Szpilman in 'The Pianist' in 2002. So much promise, so little since. 2. Jamie Foxx Last memorable performances : Max in 'Collateral' & Ray Charles in 'Ray' in 2004. Close being back in "The Soloist' , not there yet. 3. Jim Carrey Last memorable performance: Joel Barish in "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" in 2004. More concerned with big box office comedy than anything else it seems. 4. Gwyneth Paltrow Last Memorable performance : Viola De Lesseps in ''Shakespeare in Love'' in 1998. Was good in 'The Royal Tenenbaums'' but that was more of a cast thing than an individual thing. 5. Jeremy Irons Last memorable performance: Claus von Bulow in "Reversal of Fortune" in 1990. Best since then is he was Scar in 'Lion King' 6. Thomas Hayden Church Last Memorable Performance: Jack Lopate in " Sideways" in 2004. 7. Chiwetel Ejiofor Last
