*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

[Burgey]

Johnson currently 17 wickets in the series at 8.4

Should have opened with him tbh, and had him hog the strike

We should clone him and pick 5 of him.

In fact, "The Campaign to Clone Bell” has a bit of a ring to it.

Got out to the hook in Australia a couple of tours ago I think. For some reason it sticks out in my mind.

However going back and looking it wasn't in the 06-07 series. Hmmm maybe I'm just making it up.

You thinking of Strauss at the Gabba? Was a collision in the outfield which would explain is sticking out.

when lee and hussey almost killed each other?

 

[uvelocity]

hahahahaha johnsons asking k00mar how close he is to the front line as if that **** has any idea. in such a good place he is

 

[GIMH]

Worth noting that Bell batted 3 on Trott's debut and it worked. Not that we shouldn't have put Trott at 3; he obviously did a fantastic job in the role. But his failures at 3 are symptomatic of the old Ian Bell and not the player he is now.

Nonetheless, make Pietersen bat there who does he think is, Tendulkar?

 

[uvelocity]

"he resists that root" itstl

Dunno.

I think maybe it was just Cook top edging a few that landed safely and I thought that he had an unusual way of hooking and thought that perhaps it could be a weakness. But it turned out he actually played it really well.

 

[benchmark00]

Did someone just screen cap Smitteh?

 

[Pothas]

Any chance of a run?

 

[Top_Cat]

Slater, stop talking about fast bowling.

 

[benchmark00]

Wish they would stop trying to analyse Johnson. The only thing he's doing differently now is that he's not trying to be a proper bowler and he's just playing to his strengths now - trying to hit ****s in the face.

His arms and body are in a much better position when he releases the ball now though, no?

 

[Riggins]

Yeah, was thinking this. Can anyone remember Cook being bounced out? I can't.

I feel like I remember ooh ah bouncing him out.

 

[Burgey]

Dunno.

I think Strauss was bounced out by McGrath in Brisbane, and Cook nicked off next ball or near enough to it.

 

[Spikey]

I'm a much better poster now that my eyes are on the screen and I'm not second guessing myself

 

[benchmark00]

It's a ****ing shoe. Stop calling them boots every time you talk about bowling.

 

[Riggins]

Shut the **** up Ian.

the shoe is on the other foot for benchmark00
