*Official* First Test at The Gabba

[benchmark00]

Anderson doesn't mind getting gobby when he bowls but when he gets it back he throws his toys out. Just take it and play on.

 

[uvelocity]

dis gon be gud

 

[benchmark00]

Mind you, Bailey shouldn't be saying anything, if I were him I'd be staying very quiet.

 

[ajdude]

Yeah go a foot past the line and stick it into his ribs.

I think he meant taking the no ball from bowling too many bouncers per over.

 

[Spark]

Holy **** look at Siddle

 

[benchmark00]

Bingo bango.

 

[uvelocity]

5 fa and 4 fa who could have predicted it

 

[adub]

Never seen an ODI with this much feeling.

Test cricket the best form of cricket

Ashes tests the best Tests.

 

[Jono]

Siddle just sprayed Anderson hard!

 

[benchmark00]

Holy **** look at Siddle

Might see some $ out of his banana budget.

 

[ajdude]

and chris rogers finally gets a win after 7 starts.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Thought Anderson looked a bit scared before that delivery. Can't really blame him. Siddle was fairly reserved when the catch was taken though.

 

[Spikey]

root so pleased to walk away with the not out

 

[benchmark00]

That was a complete and utter dismantling. Very rarely do you see plans so sharply and ruthlessly executed. Outstanding stuff from the planners and bowlers alike.

 

[Hooksey]

Australia 295 and 7 (dec) for 401 defeated England 136 and 179.

Australia won by 381 runs with a day to spare and leads the series 1-0.



Pathetic would probably be more apt.

 

[Spikey]

weird that australia managed to win without watson bowling (much)

 

[JontyPanesar]

I love the words Siddle threw in at the end to Anderson. Spices this series up even further. And I loved that Clarke came to the defense of Bailey like that. I love Clarke for his tactics, but even his overall attitude and body language are fantastic

 

[Son Of Coco]

Nice 'Flintoff' from Johnson at the end too.

I think Siddle was a bit over the top. Match is won, just celebrate with your team mates.

 

[Hooksey]

Australia's 5th biggest Test win in terms of runs ever.

11 slices of humble pie await you in the change-rooms England
