*Official* Pakistan in Australia

Watto. Didn't that hit his arm? [/wishfulthinking]

I doubt Watson would be just standing there.... i mean it would bloody painful.. hitting his elbow at the speed.
Confirmed.. hit the handle.. pretty freakish wicket.

 

[NasserFan207]

It was a great ball whatever.

The bounce in this Gabba pitch all game has been excellent. Struggling to recall any past Gabba tests in the last decade where i saw so much bounce..

We're stuffed once the spinners come on.

Yeah, came to post this. Particularly Ajmal. Particularly if Clarke is in.

Also, Darsh.

"I'm very upset. He's such a good player to watch."

Lovely unbiased commentary from Mark Nicholas.

 

[pasag]

Marsh, maybe not the answer.

 

[Craig]

I have to wait another 10 minutes.

 

[Burgey]

Watson's best figures in ODIs.

Australia should be wary of this target, Pakistan's bowling is very good, and the pitch is quick. If Australia lose Marsh or Watto early, getting Ponting early is a chance, and then it's game on.

Marsh/Watson my favourite ever opening combination fwiw.

Dunno Nath - reckon Darsh may be the most over-hyped thing since the bloke batting 5 for Pakistan.

Australia paying here for bowling too short for much of the Pakistan innings imo.

Oh cool, it's MJ Clarke to the rescue with a trademark 48(97). Go you dud ODI thing

 

[pasag]

Aamir has Ponting all over the place atm.

Seriously reckon Heals got the memo telling him he's the most biased unlistenable **** to ever commentate on cricket. He's really toned it down recently and is pretty decent these days. C9 needs some Kasper though. Best commentator in the country right now.

Better than Benaud?

 

[Burgey]

Do you not have a 'red button' in Australia?

 

[duffer]

Better than Benaud?

Richie these days? Yes imo. Almost as lovable too.

 

[Nate]

Darsh's problem is that he gets out like that way too much, hitting in the air after getting set and looking good. I'm confident that he can keep working at it, and even with it, he's averaging 40 in ODIs so far.

 

[duffer]

What are the odds on a run out ending this? I gotta feeling.

 

[NasserFan207]

I'd prefer them to bring in a foreign commentator, tbh. No offence to Kasper, but they badly need some sort of balance.

 

[_Ed_]

I gotta feeling.

You've put that bloody song in my head now.

 

[pasag]

How is Ponting still out there?
