Legitimately this is exactly what our home summers have been like for yonks.Incredible bowling
So the rule with the Kookaburra ball now is to ask for a ball change until you get the one in twenty that does something.
In what way is this unfair? It's great bowling and the ball is holding it's shape.Seriously pissed off with the ball change. This is not fair at all.
These Australian balls have been a farce. 9 ball changes in match. Unheard of.
They'll definitely give them a lot of practice.Can't wait for the west Indies to show oz how to catch....
Yeah the two quickest ones by the gun were yorkers but they didn't feel the quickest to me.something to do with it being a yorker I reckon
Probably explains why Johnson felt so fast despite not being absolute express on the speedgunYeah the two quickest ones by the gun were yorkers but they didn't feel the quickest to me.
what about that game where they gave a two piece to wasim and waqar?Reminds me of a test match in Auckland when the WIndies were caning us like it was going out of fashion. Can't remember who, but someone hit a ball out of Eden Park and a replacement was brought out. Bond made the new ball hoop like crazy and the WIndies were skittled shortly after.

Yeah I don't think I've seen fielders being beaten for pace too often before.This is legitimately one of the quickest spells I've ever seen in tests.
