*Official* Fifth Test at The Oval

[Cabinet96]

you know what else is weird. you not picking in the mystery box draft.

To be expected really.

 

[Riggins]

benchy will be confused, he's a big fan of marto's analysis.

 

[91Jmay]

Maybe they had an extra cover because Siddle was caught there the last time he batted against this bowler.

 

[Furball]

Had no idea Prior was vice captain.

 

[King Pietersen]

Had no idea Prior was vice captain.

Yeah, me neither, mentioned it yesterday on commentary too, was a bit surprised.

 

[Cabinet96]

Broad was the initial VC but after he got dropped for the Kolkata test Prior took over. Don't think it's quite as official as it was when Cook did the role though.

 

[King Pietersen]

1-75 are such harsh figures for Stuart Broad. Bowled so much better than those figures suggest.

 

[91Jmay]

Already a good knock from Siddle and partnership this for Aus.

 

[Riggins]

Yeah Benchy's reaction will be great if Siddle manages to make a debut hundred batting in the top 6 when he wanted him batting 11 earlier in the series when we had the long tail.

 

[Spark]

It's odd, at times in this series (here, D1 TB), Smith has actually looked very settled against the moving ball. Just needs to put away that annoying flashy drive.

 

[Riggins]

Yeah it's really worrying even (especially?) when he's hitting them for four.

 

[Uppercut]

Well that's just classic Anderson.

 

[Spikey]

siddle wasnt watching smitteh bat imo #playstraight

 

[91Jmay]

Needed that. Good ball, but a tailenders shot. Well done Siddle though, did his job.

Lasted longer than Uzzie and his skipper at Durham too in tough conditions.

Jaffa from Jimmy.

 

[Furball]

Glorious.

 

[King Pietersen]

Piss off Siddle. Bowled Jimmeh.

 

[Spark]

That's an amusingly high quality ball to a night watchman

 

[ajdude]

Yeah Benchy's reaction will be great if Siddle manages to make a debut hundred batting in the top 6 when he wanted him batting 11 earlier in the series when we had the long tail.

it'll be a muted one on cricketweb that's for sure.

****, anderson's using an ingame exploit imo,
