*Official* First Test at the Gabba

[Prince EWS]

I'd have thought Broad would be on by now, to try some short pitched stuff

These two aren't really the ideal pair to bowl short stuff too, especially once set.

 

[Prince EWS]

Haddin's straight drive is soooooooo goooooooooood

Sadly even a little too straight at times. The stumps at the non-striker's end probably take 3 runs off his average.

**** eating grin on my face all day now.

Warne's laying into Strauss here.

WHAT A CLANGER

Jimmy Anderson too!

My goodness me... he missed it by half a foot!

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

That's an awful drop.

 

[mcs]

dropped again!

 

[Jayzamann]

FMD how many chances is that now.

 

[duffer]

Jimmeh!

 

[M0rphin3]

[robelinda]

So funny.

 

[Jacknife]

FFS that's beyond a joke,especially from Jimmy.

 

[irottev]

LOL England dropped another one. Suck on that Broad.

[Prince EWS]

Wow. Arguably the best mid on/mid off fielder in the world. Missed it by a mile.

 

[Spark]

You make your own luck. Can't really complain too much about plays and misses, dodgy decisions when you miss those like that.

 

[hazsa19]

poor lad

 

[mcs]

that was terrible

 

[Debris]

He was out though. Or should've been. Referral debates are exactly why the system is poor - it shouldn't be Strauss's job to umpire. It's a much better system than not using the technology at all but it's still quite flawed.

And I'd quite love to **** off to England. Buy me a unit there pl0x.

So what is your solution, refer every decision?

 

[duffer]

This is more like the Ashes we know and love now.
