*Official* First Test at Swalec Stadium, Cardiff

[FaaipDeOiad]

@ Home and Away theme.

Been laughing for the last five minutes at that.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Didn't think anything could depress me more, but have just discovered that Hauritz's current test bowling average of 32.17 is lower than every English bowler's save Swann. Jesus.

 

[Uppercut]

Haddin will surely start dancing down the track pretty soon.

 

[pasag]

Lol at Home and Away.

Let's never play at Cardiff again.

Someone replaced the England off-spinner with the dude out of Art Attack.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Encouraging first over from Swann. Gave the ball some air and totally deceived Haddin with one that turned from wide.

101 lead....tell haddin to go nuts, tell johnson the same, 15 ovrs later, lead of 200, england batting after lunch, test over by lunch day 5.

 

[Uppercut]

Haddin looks in a little bit of trouble against spin. Unusual for him.

 

[King Pietersen]

101 lead....tell haddin to go nuts, tell johnson the same, 15 ovrs later, lead of 200, england batting after lunch, test over by tea day 4.

Fixed.

 

[ripper868]

where were you while we were getting high?

 

[vic_orthdox]

Oh, and looking through images of Swann, he looked hilariously bad with the dyed blonde hair.

 

[ripper868]

haddin to belt a 6 soon...

 

[Matt79]

Hauritz wlll be licking his chops at what he's seeing at the moment.

 

[Uppercut]

The sun just came out up in Belfast. Meanwhile, expected rain in Dublin hasn't materialised as Ireland and Kenya have been playing all morning in what was expected to be a complete washout. England could potentially be in trouble here.

 

[morgieb]

Bloody hell we're dominating. Should declare so that we have enough time to win.

 

[Matt79]

Broad - can't bowl, can't throw.

 

[Matt79]

Bloody hell we're dominating. Should declare so that we have enough time to win.

No way. Don't declare less than 250 ahead, or drinks after tea, whichever comes first.

Time for Haddin, Johnson and if necessary Hauritz (he can have a hack when he needs to) to go crazy and score quick runs. A lead of 250 (unless time is a problem in getting there) and we should declare.

 

[ripper868]

Hoping England take the new ball, will run to the boundary that much quicker.
