*Official* First Test at Swalec Stadium, Cardiff

[ripper868]

I watched quite a lot of it IIRC, just don't remember what happened

pub?

 

[GIMH]

is ****ing right....still got a chance of emerging with a lead here

 

[morgieb]

Worse is that we are still 104 runs behind. North needs to show his form in the Lions game.

 

[Burgey]

I always love it that filth can get wickets, even at Test level.

Great knock.

 

[GIMH]

pub?

Haha, no, unfortunately I remember the sessions I watched very well. Was working through most if so generally either stayed up late or set the early alarm then tried to hammer it at the weekends. Was cruel but can't wait to do it all again next winter (although this time round I'll make sure I have some hols left and suitably adjsut sleeping patterns)

 

[ripper868]

I'll see your lead and raise you Australia by 100 runs.

Broad

Is that great captaincy by Strauss?

Just go all out and move to australia for a year, triple your money easily.

 

[GIMH]

Haha, I would possibly consider it if it didn't mean leaving my kids behind

 

[ripper868]

Bring them with you, be better for them, plus with their accents they'd be the most popular kids in school, particularly during sport time.

 

[GIMH]

Oh dear, been defending Broad for months, hope he sorts himself out and saves me some face, and soon.

or better yet, move to new zealand so you start the phoenix supporters group and support greenacre.

Not sure my ex-missus will be too cool on that idea, maybe I'll ask her

Tis if he doesn't want his 2 best bowlers falling in a heap. Anderson did his job, Fred less so. But he's got to have some faith in this bloke to come on now and do his.

Now this is a good idea!

Better change the topic before people start bringing the off topic banners out, er, so how about that cricket stuff hey, maiden from Monty

This over's been much better. I'm hoping for the same thing tbh. I've been praising him a fair bit and think he's got a big future, so really hoping he has a good series.

Good ball to get katich, huge swing, thought ponting was a bit unlucky, as usual monty only getting a wicket with assistance from the pitch... hideous shot from hussey, what was he thinking, broad showing why he's so incredibly overrated, just isn't test quality.

Overrated, every day I read about 20 posts calling him ****
