*Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

[Burgey]

Clarke has to bat again or McGrath's cancer day won't happen.

Clarke has to bat again because Burgeinho is making his live Ashes-watching debut tomorrow

 

[Nate]

Stokes isn't the one from Zimbabwe! Pidge you muppet.

Matt Barron: Turned the cricket on 10 minutes ago. Saw the second ball. Turned off and gone to bed. Embarrassing.


This has me laughing much more than it should,

 

[Athlai]

How awkward do you think Stokes will feel when NZ pass Eng in the rankings?

 

[Spark]

Will join my voice to those wanting Clarke to bat again so this game actually goes an acceptable number of days.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Highest partnership of the innings.

 

[Hooksey]

Will join my voice to those wanting Clarke to bat again so this game actually goes an acceptable number of days.

What do you class as a respectable number?

 

[Tangles]

Decision to sell my day 3 tickets looking good atm.

 

[GIMH]

Going to bed whenever one of the following happens (I.e the first to happen)

A- wicket
B- phone battery dies (it's an iPhone 5s and I have 8%)
C- lunch

Place your bets

 

[GIMH]

I thought that was out

 

[Spark]

Can't give that.

 

[GIMH]

They won't give that. Probably caught, but.

 

[GIMH]

Fair play to Haddin btw

 

[Riggins]

How can they only use one replay there?

 

[GIMH]

How can they only use one replay there?

They probably figured it wasn't worth wasting time on it when another wicket is just round the corner

 

[howardj]

I actually don't think that new grandstand gives a 'wonderful blend of the old and the new"

It's not so much that it's a different vintage/style, but it's just obscenely tall compared to the other stands

 

[GIMH]

Ben Stokes is a joy to watch

 

[The Battlers Prince]

How can they only use one replay there?

Cos it was easy to see that it's not out.

 

[Riggins]

Ben Stokes is a joy to watch

Yeah he looks good. You feel like some of these leaves are far too close though. Harris a chance to nail off stump I reckon.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Double figures, party time.
