*Official* Third Test at Old Trafford

[Cabinet96]

Smith WAC.

 

[King Pietersen]

150 up for Clarke. Bloody fine innings this.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

real end-of-net session shot that

 

[uvelocity]

crunch!

 

[Spark]

Haha he seriously doesn't rate Bresnan

 

[Swingpanzee]

Clarke just killing Bres now.

 

[NUFAN]

haha true that. Great battle between him and bres at the mo

Yep. I'm enjoying it too.

 

[Burgey]

Haha, Bresnan being made to look rank here. Clarke's the best player on either side by some margin these days.

 

[King Pietersen]

This is majestic from Clarke. Treating Bresnan with absolutely no respect. This could be a really expensive over.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

alright clarke, 20 off 10 then we'll pack up

 

[Spikey]

of clarke's 12 tons since the start of 2010, only 4 of them have been lower than 150

 

[Swingpanzee]

He's just the People's Champ, the Battler's Prince. Fidgety, hideous, ugly to watch, has technical issues but tries his guts out. If he was English, of course, that would make him par for the course.

But because he's Australian: a nation of athletically, technically and aesthetically gifted people, he stands out as an endearing character - like the humorous but backward cousin at a family BBQ.

So Shane Watson is.......?

 

[dermo]

seriously getting sick of these ****ing liquorland ad's fmd

 

[Burgey]

Be tempted to have a second slip here for Warner.

 

[Cabinet96]

This could be an expensive period up until Lunch. Clarke in Adelaide mode and Warner is obviously going to attack.

 

[wpdavid]

Congrats to Clarke.

Anyone think this will be reverse Old Trafford 2005?

I'm hoping for a reverse of Adelaide 2006

 

[grecian]

Don't want to jinx him before he's even batted, but this is the type of pitch Kp could go big on.

 

[Spikey]

warne of course telling us how he'd love a root right now

 

[Burgey]

so shane watson is.......?

a ****.

 

[Spikey]

warner's talked clarke into it
