*Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

They'll come alive after a wicket falls

Not even lunch yet! Only had time for a couple of pints.

OK guys you're going to have to cope without the benefit of my expert commentary for the time being, I'm as tired as a lottery winner in a brothel and am off to get some kip before the kids wake me up at dawn.

Hopefully my absence will herald a change in fortune for the Ashes-retaining heroes.

night night

 

[Jacknife]

Haha different conditions though.

Meaning, he went in at lunch, saw that he bowled a bit short and changed his lengths accordingly.

 

[GIMH]

Tremmers is gonna nick one here before lunch

That's just blatant racism.

Anyway come on England, I don't plan on going to bed anytime soon so reward me for my commitment.

 

[Jono]

Jeez Trott is a genuine devon head isn't he?

Random cut away to Darrell Hair in the crowd. Cue mass hysteria from all subcontinental supporters on CW.

He's there just to boo Khawaja imo

I hope they stay asleep can still here their chant from the MCG at least they could not sing 3 dollars to the pound!

Good night mate, we should be 0-260 by the time you wake up

 

[GIMH]

Pathetic from the Aussies this. Strauss and Cook would have a minimum of 150 on the board by now.

 

[Ruckus]

He's there just to boo Khawaja imo

nice

 

[Spark]

Haha liked that. Ball is three inches outside off at most, Watson leaves, Tremlett shrugs and half-rolls his eyes

 

[hazsa19]

You're racist for pointing out he's racist in telling us Hair is racist.

Racist.

Just thought I should let everyone know that I know a guy who's married to this woman who knows a fella who once worked with a black man.

 

[Spark]

Meaning, he went in at lunch, saw that he bowled a bit short and changed his lengths accordingly.

He'd got some wickets to fuller balls though. He wasn't quite as short as he was here.

Still dangerous bowling though. Watson is looking shaky but he's not following the ball.

 

[thierry henry]

Hate Hughes already. Australian lefties should be banned, all so unwatchable.

 

[slippy888]

Aussies run rate 2.15

 

[GIMH]

I'm not racist but Burgey's a ****

 

[GIMH]

Woop, the Wirral gets a mention.

 

[thierry henry]

Khawaja doesn't even look subcontinental at all

 

[flibbertyjibber]

If i was an Aussie as much as todays batting would be pleasing i would be so angry. Why haven't they shown this much fight earlier in the series?

We haven't bowled badly but the Aussies are just playing sensible test cricket.

 

[Spikey]

great. i was going go to the shops during the lunch break but now that richie's gonna be talking about frank tyson i don't know what to do.

 

[hazsa19]

Aussies run rate 2.15

Yeah and if they make big scores it will be 'seeing off the new ball'.

If they get out for <100 it'll be that 'they got a bit bogged down'.
