*Official* Third Test at the WACA

[Son Of Coco]

Good lines from Siddle.


And I love the Australian Outback Spectacular ad where it looks like the bloke standing on the horses is getting his nuts roasted.

Highest english opening partnership for both sets of ashes here.

Jesus. That's pathetic.

 

[91Jmay]

****ing Bowden. Useless prick.

 

[91Jmay]

And now the rate begins to slip.

 

[Daemon]

Can't let Lyon get settled. Pains me to admit it but he's actually threatening when he gets into a good rhythm and tosses it up.

 

[Valer]

Jesus. That's pathetic.

Its actually the highest since compton and cook both scored 100s vs nz in nz.

 

[Challis]

of the bits of Carberry's batting that I've seen this series, he generally looks a tidy player but the one thing I've noticed is that he struggles to take a single to rotate the strike once in awhile. This means he can go through spells consisting of lots of dot balls putting himself under pressure and then go looking for an aggressive shot.

 

[SpofforthLohman]

well the Australian bowlers are showing their true colours... they are pathetic useless crap and the days of Australian pride in cricket look to be history. don't be surprised if these useless assholes fail to take another single English wicket for the rest of the series. As I have said before, if Johnson fails we all fail... and guess what, Johnson has failed to take a wicket. England look certainties to keep the Ashes. Harris, Siddle are ****ful bowlers... get rid of them or we will never bowl anyone out.

Yeah this is bang on, particularly against Lyon. Luckily on this pitch there are a few more boundaries than normal to keep the scoreboard reasonable.

 

[Spark]

Rhino. What a bowler

 

[Cabinet96]

Shouldn't have listened to Strauss Carbs.

Even I have to say this looks hilariously stupid right about now. No need to have his bat anywhere near that. Total gift we looked comfortable.

lol.

 

[SpofforthLohman]

Watson is a bit like Bresnan in that he's really good at keeping it tight on slow, lowish pitches and uses reverse swing well. Neither have supplied the control their captains would've wanted on this pitch.

It's at Perth, only the worst bowlers in test cricket fail here. Harris just took a single wicket and silly Mark Taylor calls Harris a champion ?????... McGrath is waht a champion is... a matchwinner on a regular basis.

I didn't even notice that post, that's hilarious

 

[91Jmay]

Good opening stand though, very disappointing for Carbs that he didn't go on. Johnson back on now I assume, collapse could be imminent. Was 78/0 last time we played here.

 

[Spark]

Reckon Harris deserved that though. This has been a really nice spell, really found his length

 

[Son Of Coco]

And therein lies the value in 'leaving' by having your bat hanging around the ball. There isn't any.

Definitely don't think Carberry ever looked entirely comfortable, such jammy innings.
