***Official*** Sri Lanka in Australia 2012/2013

[Spikey]

positioning of warner pretty smart

 

[Spikey]

fkg bill stealing my opinions.

 

[Jono]

Clarkey is a great captain to watch in the field, whether his stuff works or not.

 

[Noble One]

Would love a wicket right now. Dilshan and Matthews simply riding on luck. Poor batting.

 

[Spark]

That's pretty much the worst hour of batting I've ever seen without losing a wicket.

 

[Burgey]

Are you the bloke who said he's better than Swann?

Yep. Stand by it too.

 

[Spikey]

define worst. cook and trott was pretty awful to watch

 

[Spark]

yeah but at least you could understand why they were still batting an hour later

 

[Spark]

How was thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

 

[Xuhaib]

find it odd Til Dil and Matthews are not even getten half of the love Kohli/Dhoni got for thier partnership despite facing an exact same situation. Sure that track is tougher but Indans should be use to low and slow while SL have come in to the game pretty unprepared.

 

[Jono]

Reckon this is as good a spell as I've seen Lyon bowl.

Are you the bloke who said he's better than Swann?

Yep. Stand by it too.

If that is the best spell Lyon has ever bowled he is not better than Swann. Surely you can see that?

You couldn't say Kohli and Dhoni were lucky. Matthews and Dilshan have definitely rode their luck, big time.

Good luck to them though, but post-lunch they've batted weirdly.

 

[Jono]

Lol that was out but they didn't review.

 

[Noble One]

What the?

Bowlers will appeal for something that misses by a metre. Proper edge and nothing.

Since when does bowling well mean you automatically get wickets?

That's because Til Dil & Mathews haven't exactly been digging in, so much as being lucky. Mathews in particular has looked bewildered for the most part this session.

tbf have not seen much of their partnership but they are batting in much more alien conditions even if they are easier.

 

[Spark]

They batted fine pre-lunch though. Post lunch they've batted like idiots.

Was only a faint edge, reckon the wind would've made it difficult to hear given it's blowing away from Siddle.

 

[Hurricane]

I think all substitute fielders should be called Bo.
