*Official* First Test at the Gabba

[Neil Pickup]

Let's play "guess how many crap wide short balls England send down to piss away the new ball".

 

[Son Of Coco]

What's the difference between that and Ponting nicking a good ball just outside his off stump to the keeper?

Nicking down leg-side is unnecessary. If it's a good ball and the batsman is drawn into the shot then it's a different story.

 

[Jarquis]

First instinct not out

Review system is a load of ****

Nice anti-jinx.

 

[Top_Cat]

Dead I reckon.

EDIT: Oooo, outside leg stump. Luuuuucky. Sucks for Dar, I reckon. He's been great this game.

 

[Spark]

Hussey has a good eye. Immediate review. No doubts about that one either.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

I love this rule!

 

[Prince EWS]

That idiot who loves Dar to post.

 

[GIMH]

****

 

[Pizzorno]

****ing stupid useless system

 

[King Pietersen]

Just didn't look right live for me. Was surprised to see the umpire give it out. Disappointing for us, but the UDRS does the job again.

 

[Speersy]

Yay

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Geraint Jones, come on down!

 

[Top_Cat]

Matt Prior, you are a **** 'keeper champ. Swung away and he overshot it, hilarious.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

No argument,didn't look right live anyway.Bloody reviews.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Bloody reviews.

 

[Flem274*]

Anderson has bowled really well here. Better than I expected.

 

[Athlai]

Who is doing the Prior vs. Haddin bet?

 

[Top_Cat]

Reckon England have the right idea going after Hussey's leg-stump. Hasn't hurt them off his pads this knock, reckon LBW a real possibility.

Bizarre set of emotions there - (i) ooh, hit on the pads, big shout, chance? - (ii) missing leg isn't it? - (iii) he's given it! come on! - (iv) wait, review. 51%?? - (v) bollocks.
