My wife just ask why are Australia so wicked these days.how should I reply?

 

[Neil Pickup]

I complained about it then too

So where do you draw the line?

 

[Prince EWS]

This just made me remember that Vernon is batting #9, not #8. Wtf, not sure how I got that mixed up.

Yeah South Africa's #8 in fact has six First Class hundreds.

We aren't picking mentally weak players such as Phil Hughes in our team.

The fact that most of Johnson's wickets have come through:

1) Fast short pitched bowling
2) Brilliant planning and field placements in the outfield

and not through the kind of swing bowling that say, Steyn gets his wickets from. It would be lovely to watch the two of them bowl together. Any chance of that happening in the MCC vs ROW match that's coming up?

Probably Robbie's last ever test dismissal. Poor bloke.

Harris isn't a bad substitute tbf.

Is Mitch bowling out of a cannon, deadly stuff damage everywhere.

 

[Spikey]

i think Darren Berry just compared Peter Siddle to Damien Martyn

Darren Berry ‏@Chucksaca 1m
Harris and Siddle are top quality fast bowlers with massive tickers. Mitch has made them look like Adam Dale & Damien Martyn military medium

Thought Marsh was mentally weak before this test.

Well done Rhyno, all class

 

[uvelocity]

ryano yes ****!

 

[OverratedSanity]

Shame I couldn't watch the day's play but not surprised in the least that Mitch did this again. Honestly, this is the most ridiculously unplayable peak for a fast bowler in my 15 years of serious cricket watching. How long he keeps this up is another story but good god

Scary to think that we havent seen the absolute best of Harris yet.Imagine if Johnson and Harris are at their best on the same day.

Yeah, they'd both taken seven in the same innings!

Oh wait...
