*Official* West Indies In Australia

That pull from Hauritz was magnificent. Best he's batted at int level.

Another throw, another miss from Clarke. Looks a million dollars collecting and throwing, but really should have had that wicket in the first or second over.

If Hilf is there by the end of the series I'd be suprised.

 

[Sylvester]

Hilfy is looking very average without the swing. Bollinger offers swings and better control.

 

[Prince EWS]

LOL @ that review. As plumb as you get. Dire shot, selfish call. Well done Gayle.

 

[Sylvester]

Well that got Hilfy going, that was perfect line and length for his bowling.

They should run the hot-spot camera right through the whole follow through, to see if we get a look at the edge of the bat.

 

[Uppercut]

Jeez, you guys turn against players very quickly. Last I saw Hilfy playing tests he was Australia's best bowler. It wasn't even close.

Ha indeed.

BTW you just knew HilFy was going to get Gayle LBW.

Jeez, you guys turn against players very quickly. Last I saw Hilfy playing tests he was Australia's best bowler. It wasn't even close.

In conditions that suited him perfectly, though. I have my doubts over how successful he'll be against test batsmen in Australia, but I'm happy to be proven wrong.

Typical Johnson wicket. Just slid away a little, and people would be saying "Oh, why didn't he just leave it?!"

Indeed, he's yet to take the wicket of one.

Haha, geez, snarky thread today.

Quite true of course. Johnson never takes wickets with good balls.

 

[Johnners]

Johnners, WAG.

Wouldn't really class it as turning against someone when most people didn't want him in the Ashes teams in the first place...

Madness.

 

[Johnners]

Madness.

Edited ftr, but I'd assume your point still stands.

I know it goes against all logic (and is highly hypocritical of me) but I'd still much rather see Bolly in the team than Hilf, regardless of what he did in England.

 

[aussie]

Madness.

Ha indeed. Seeing Hilfy in South Africa, you always knew he would have been very effective in the Ashes.

[Craig]

Well if you Aussies don't want Hilfenhaus, we will take him. After all, isn't Tasmania supposed to be part of New Zealand?

As I've said before regarding Johnson, if batsman just had the common sense to leave everything that was bowled either on or just outside off stump, they would really have nothing to worry about johnson. One would think that in Australia, this would be even easier given that most delivieres on the stumps end up going over. Dowlin looks like hes making the same mistakes.

Saying that, you have to wonder what on earth Gayle was thinking when he took up that review.

Chanderpaul goes upstairs.
