*Official* First Test at the Gabba

[Speersy]

Is it just me or does Clarke look like he's back is still hurting?

 

[Top_Cat]

Think they're unused to watching a match where both sides are trying to win...

haha.

 

[Nate]

Been saying this for a while, but Ponting really needs to drop down the order. Gah.

 

[Janki_Jasoos]

Do we really need UDRS when Darr is umpiring??

 

[Furball]

Had Dar given Clarke, do you think it would have been overturned based on that evidence?

No.

Kemar Roach got given out caught behind in the 3rd Test vs Australia last year and reviewed it. Hotspot showed nothing, but the decision was still upheld.

Ok, you like Dar. We get it, jeez.

 

[hazsa19]

could have had em 5 down, this will be frustrating if they get away

 

[social]

Clarke is just painful to watch atm

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

If Clarke had actually hit it, he wouldn't have gone for a review surely?

Dar could very easily have given it out (considering they had to peel Tony off the ceiling of the combox when it was given not out), but if he didn't feel he'd hit it I wonder whether what we got from the replays and Hot Spot would be enough.

 

[TumTum]

Clarke and Hussey will put on a 150 run partnership.

 

[irottev]

clarke and hussey will put on a 150 run partnership.

scro tumtum

 

[M0rphin3]

Hussehhhh

 

[morgieb]

2 fours for Hussey. Back in touch?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

These two are bound to put a big stand on,both look like getting out so a 100 partnership is guaranteed.

 

[pasag]

Broad needs to follow the lead of Anderson and Finn and keep the pressure on.No freebies Stuart.Could just peopper him some short stuff and test his back out.

 

[M0rphin3]

Where the eff is Swanneh?

 

[TumTum]

150 at least.

 

[Ruckus]

How many were England down around this time?

Obviously yeah. The batsman almost always knows.

I remember a few years ago in an Australia/West indies test, Roach was given out caught behind, reviewed it, and hotspot showed nothing, but they stayed with the decision. Who knows.
