***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2013/14

That's not a great shot, that.

 

[Jono]

**** that is loose.

 

[Dan]

Poor from ABdV there

 

[Burgey]

There's got to be something about Johnson's pace, action or angle of release or something which seems to compel even top players to play really wide balls from over the wicket. It's always happened, whether he's bowled well or bowled crap.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Exposing the lower order to Johnson. Seen this a few times before.

[Second Spitter]

It was straight out of the bogan handbook. Embarrassing. Mitch went on about it after the over too

What did you expect? We're not exactly dealing with Mensa International here..

Shocker of a shot

Yeah, every one of his match making big hauls has contained at least two wickets down to RHB swishing at wide deliveries.

Very few bowlers in the history of cricket have been left hand slingers who bowl at 90 mph

True. Also on the replay from behind the cordon it looked like it left him just a bit as well.

A lot of those recently have been batsmen who have been roughed up and hence pinned on the crease by Johnson's sheer pace and hostility, though. ABdV has handled Johnson just fine in this series so he doesn't have that to excuse him.

Bad Hands on fire..

Tony Abbott's Australia.

Amateur hour is picking it up in the first place. Haven't a clue WTF he was thinking doing that. Was a weird (strange?) few moments all round really, following all that up with a squirt break.

Youre right but the reaction has always been a pet hate of mine because the whole passage of play is just so ridiculous

It's right up there with the guy at cover who continually throws the ball at the batsman who is doing nothing more than standing in his crease after having played a defensive shot

 

[Ruckus]

Tony Abbott's Australia.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott - **** Happens - YouTube

 

[Jono]

Tony Abbott's Australia.

Yeah, those horrible xenophobic people who just hate subcontinental pitches and spinners because they're different

 

[NUFAN]

Thought boob tube girl in the crowd was seriously thinking of giving us a flash just before.

 

[Jono]

My God how bad is this batting, loose as ****.

Rhino though, wag.

 

[Burgey]

Harris such a beast of a bowler. Give him titanium knees ffs
