*Official* First Test at the Gabba

[chalky]

Bloody hell a cover drive from Cook

Must be a flat pitch.

 

[vcs]

Haha, this is amazing batting now.

 

[ripper868]

Just woke up...how good were the Wallabies this morning...who cares about cricket

 

[Pup Clarke]

For someone with a gun short delivery, Hilf seems terribly reluctant to use it which is baffling imo.

 

[M0rphin3]

Oh ****.

 

[NUFAN]

Time for a wicket, this is the perfect situation for Mitch to come on and get one IMO.

 

[Prince EWS]

Haha yeah it is. With a **** ball if possible.

 

[tooextracool]

Haha yeah it is. With a **** ball if possible.

2nd statement a bit redundant dont you think?

 

[Spark]

This is just stupid. Why is there so many singles on the legside...

Bottom-drawer tactics this.

Really?

In regard to House, that Cricinfo article lauding how great a bowler he was simply as he got a few unlucky decisions in India seems a wee bit premature. Hasn’t got the ball to swing today and has looked pedestrian. Bring in Ryan Harris.

From watching the stadium....it doesn't seem to be sold out?

Yeah, couldn't agree more. A few members on CW massively over-rated him after that series as well.

DOUGEH!

 

[Ausage]

Not even close. About half full I'd estimate.

Punter is waiting for one of the batsman to gift their wicket away. Ghost was given up a long-time ago as far as attack minded captaincy was concerned.

 

[Bun]

Not even close. About half full I'd estimate.

On a sunday?

 

[TT Boy]

DOUGEH!

And added historical revisionism to House’s CV i.e. he was good in South Africa.

Hairpiece would have probably been rank here. Aus don't need another quick bowling back of a length.

 

[GotSpin]

On a sunday?

4th day never that popular for some reason. Don't think the day has much difference

 

[GIMH]

Hmmm, maybe to do with the risk of not getting a full day? Not today, but over the years?

 

[Burgey]

Johnson has bowled eight overs this innings. Just saying.

Ponting should just get him on. May as well, see what happens.
