*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

[Spark]

Hmmm gotta be careful driving Colly out of the rough with his cutters.

 

[Jacknife]

Jesus. how bloody lucky is Hussey,the man has defo had a touch.

 

[Spark]

Colly's not bowling too much quicker than XD was. Getting almost as much turn, too.

Even Colly is turning it square at 100ks

Definitely not easy out there and puts our attack to shame

Am I the only cricket fan around who finds what England just did a particularly disreputable piece of blatant cheating?

Why is claiming a non-catch bad, but the "massive appeal for nothing" is acceptable?

Yeah without doubt. That last over from Swann would've defeated many a batsman, variable bounce and sharp turn. These two have done quite well, but this would've been handy a few days ago...

The ball was pretty bloody close to the bat.

[pasag]

Excellent ball by Swann building up momentum and.....news. Sigh.

 

[Jacknife]

The pitch is really starting to deteriorate.

Come off it.

Been refreshing to see a team attack Swann after watching others just prod forward for overs on end and eventually succumb

 

[Spark]

Yeah it's a bit silly. It was very close to the bat, he might have got a fine tickle. End of the day the fault lies with the umpire for giving it, but Clarke knew he hadn't touched it and so at the end of the day everyone's good.

he's going 2 an over.

 

[Ruckus]

It's funny every single player in England's first innings and Australia's second innings have got starts except for the two captains, Ponting and Strauss...So much for "Captain's knocks".

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Yawn. Calling this yet another test match draw now. Clarke to finish on 150-odd by the end of the test & Mussey on about 100 when rain calls an end to it tomorrow.
