That's the dismissal that will force Smith into retirement ftr.

Neil Manthorp currently saying things along similar lines right now on ABC

Mitch, such a badass, wafg.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Was about to say something about Smith never really making runs vs Johnson, but he's actually scored a couple of tons against him now that I look. I wonder what his actual record facing Johnson specifically is like. Always seems to struggle with him from what I remember.

Go on...

 

[Spark]

Go on...

He's making comparisons to that Ponting dismissal to Kallis at Adelaide where he fell over, just before Ponting retired, in terms of being embarrassing etc

My prediction for Hash is a bouncer from Mitch to get stuck in his beard, nearest fielder to pluck it out and appeal successfully for a catch

 

[ajdude]

Go on...

he probably meant that he said the phrase "things along similar lines". very strange though

 

[benchmark00]

Don't worry about pitching it up.

Dead ball if it gets stuck in the beard. Saw it the other day in the womens Ashes.

Not really the same atmosphere as in Australia when Johnson is running in hey

[dermo]

That was a shot of a guy on edge.

[Jono]

Yes go Mitch. WAG

 

[Johnners]

Yesssssss

 

[OverratedSanity]

It's like the Ashes never ended

I don't get how Johnson has turned from a talented but mercurial performer to the lovechild of Malcolm Marshall and Jeff Thomson, but heck, I'm enjoying it.
