***Official*** Australia in India 2012/13

[Biryani Pillow]

Great delivery but what did one have to do with the other?

Both out!

 

[Burgey]

Oh ffs it decked away a minuscule amount and smith was over balanced with his bat way out in front.

They talk like this **** is bowling like McGrath at Lord's.

Smith playing it with a crooked bat didn't help things, decent ball though.

If it was Cowan you'd say he's the most unlucky batsman in the world to get the ball of the century.

Contrast that to Ishant Sharma, who hasn't taken a top order wicket since 1997.

and that was an adult fill-in who retired on 30* after hitting a six off ishant's bowling (ishant celebrated)

Australia scoring at a good clip though

 

[Burgey]

I mean honestly, this is ****ing embarrassing. At least if you get out to spinners in India you know it's just **** cricket and doesn't really count. But to get out to some muppet like this bloke is actually much, much worse.
It's akin to when Richard Ellison took wickets in the 85 Ashes series. Makes you feel dirty.

He was at least as unlucky as smith.

 

[Spikey]

perfect way to bring up the 50

WTF was that shot?

 

[Burgey]

Well played Hughes.

Yeah both got out to good deliveries due to long-standing and well-known technical flaws.

 

[Spark]

That is one of the oddest fifties I've seen in ages.

Nice to see an Aussie so appreciative of the opposition.

 

[morgieb]

Meh, it's a 50. I'll take it.

Aside from a couple of shots, it has been real quality

Better playing this way than sitting there like a target

hopefully he can make it to a johnson charles-esque ton

 

[Cevno]

Hughes' knock here has reminded me of Harbhajan Singh batting when he was making runs.

Made this post after Hughes got out in the second Test:

Now that we've got that out of the way - Hughes will hit a ton in one of the other Tests in this series if persisted with. Guaranteed.

Standing by it. Ton coming here.

Will get out within the next five deliveries now ****.
