*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

[benchmark00]

Big one from What's On.

 

[Woodster]

Yes that's the second time this series he's given us a real gift. Nothing shot from Warner he really will feel he's missed out today, nothing much happening off the pitch, nothing through the air, going to be hard graft today for the bowlers. Don't mind us getting driven in the first hour or so as we search for a bit of swing, but will hopefully dry things up as this session progresses.

OOOOH HE DEFENDED IT OFF THE MIDDLE OF HIS BAT z

Warner's wicket automatically dries things up significantly.

I get so annoyed watching Watson bat like this

Eventful first ten. Looks a great pitch to bat on. We need Watson out before Monty comes on, he plunders left arm spin (even before Kerrigan) doesn't he?

We apologise for any offence caused by our earlier tweet. That was certainly not the intention. It has been removed.

Spikey on to it.

****ing Stokes seriously?

 

[morgieb]

That was pretty daft from Warner. If he kept his head down he was going to get a ton for sure.

Watto needs a massive innings here.

 

[91Jmay]

Meanwhile Shannon Gabriel having a dart at 'worst test performance ever'. Good work that man

27.5 overs 4 maidens 148 runs 0 wickets 5.31 RPO and a duck.

Hobbit tix secured for first session at imax. Is there a cricket game on today?

 

[Spark]

Wow, that was a rank ball

 

[91Jmay]

Jimmy hasn't beat the bat yet at all? Looks toothless.

 

[Spark]

Definitely seems two-paced. Suspect we're going to be more than a little annoyed with some of the dismissals in this Test.

 

[Burgey]

Pitch looks like Benchmark00's dress sense. A bit tacky.

 

[morgieb]

Wow Rogers has looked poor. I wonder if he comes under danger soon?

 

[91Jmay]

Swann on first change.

 

[Spikey]

i was gonna say monty will bowl in the first hour but i suppose two lefties means swann will get first go

should have said first 15 overs instead of first hour. ffs

I have fond memories of Watson hitting Swann for three sixes in a row at this ground in 2011
