*Official* Pakistan v Australia in UAE 2014

[Burgey]

Disappointing for noted Test aspirant Arun Finch. OTOH it gets the TPC in ASAP. TFFT.

Didn't know Steve Smith doesn't have a single ODI fifty yet.

Didn't know Steve Smith doesn't have a single ODI fifty yet.

Hasn't played much ODI's since he became a good batsman, in fairness.

 

[Burgey]

Great to see Ben Babar get a game for his new club.

 

[Riggins]

Smitty rocking the New Balance is interesting.

Was just about to post how terribad he is. After his exit in disgrace last time, you just know he's going to lay it on thick.

Love how he comments what a great pitch this is, two balls after commenting on the uneven bounce.

He's all Victorian.

 

[dermo]

couldn't believe his pitch report, not one mention of turn.

a complete spud

 

[ajdude]

so good that fawad alam's getting a decent run, thought he was stiff between 2010 and 2014

also that monobrow

 

[Burgey]

Not happy with TPC playing across his front pad so often. Looking very Graham Gooch circa 1989z

also what the **** is sheen

 

[Burgey]

They put the team lists up before with Afridi's age as 34. I swear he was 35 the last series between these teams.

Maybe it was the number of ICC infractions and bans he's incurred, not his age. The man is truly a ****.

 

[NUFAN]

Yep, they've been broken somewhat.

 

[dermo]

also what the **** is sheen

was honestly the first time I'd heard the term

 

[Riggins]

they say it all the time to describe 'shiny' pitches. **** knows whether it's actually a word tho.

 

[NUFAN]

Prediction time
Australia 242 vs Pakistan 243/4 48.5 overs.

 

[Riggins]

"his length needs to be fuller, maybe half an inch or an inch"

get ****ed.

 

[Riggins]

Prediction time
Australia 242 vs Pakistan 243/4 48.5 overs.

Australia 289, Pakistan 204.

That stint was like he had to say everything that he'd not been able to since he got sacked in his first half an hour on TV. Awful.
