[MW1304]

update: went for piss. feeling fly.

 

[Top_Cat]

Optimism in extremis.

 

[benchmark00]

Doesn't take a wicket in the first twelve balls he bowls -----> purple patch over.

 

[LongHopCassidy]

Fremantle Doctor combined with intent will see us through.

 

[Johnners]

Is that a drop?

 

[Cabinet96]

91mph delivery at dying on the slips. At Perth? Surely not.

 

[Spark]

Geez these are some streaky runs

 

[nightprowler10]

Oh dear.

EDIT: Much tougher than it first looked.

 

[Spark]

I don't count that as a chance tbh. Out of reach of 3rd and short of 2nd

 

[centurymaker]

nervy start for Eng

 

[Spikey]

turned on for the first time today. Chappell talks about how you can score quickly at the WACA

 

[Jono]

FMD Cook played that ball well. That was lethal.

 

[Spark]

Cook looks so frenetic at the moment. Weird batting

 

[Jono]

Cook very apologetic. Good bloke.

 

[BeeGee]

Johnson looks like he wants to bowl quick and bang it in short for some reason.

Yeah looked much more of a chance at the first angle.

Mitch really cranking it up.

 

[BeeGee]

Hope carbs gets a ton. Like the cut of his jib.

 

[Jono]

That was a testing over. Barring that one crazy attempt at a pull shot, Cook played it well.

Chappell wants Cook to go after those short balls #aggressivechappelli

 

[Cabinet96]

Think Cook has lost a bit of confidence with the short stuff after second dig at Adelaide. Never usually have to see him fend them off like that.

Mind, not sure I've ever seen someone so quick on such a fast pitch.

Why is Harris not bowling?
