***Official*** 3rd Test at the WACA

[Spark]

How the blazes did that not go to a fielder

 

[morgieb]

Slater showing just how foolish benchmark00 was for forgetting "takes a while to get in"

The first two have been done like twenty times already lol

 

[Cabinet96]

Yeah I really like Stoneman. Great front foot game.

 

[Spark]

tell me again though how fast bouncy pitches don't make for really good cricket

 

[Cabinet96]

Yeah I really like Stoneman. Great front foot game.

Short ball is a problem but doubt he'll ever be getting bounced out in England, so who really cares.

 

[Starfighter]

Stoneman needs to duck or otherwise get out of the way here. Three gone way up so far.

[Daemon]

Too many legside freebies. Tbf though one of them got a wicket.

 

[_Ed_]

Decent way to get off the mark, that.

 

[Daemon]

Vince is basically Bell

 

[Tangles]

Say what you want about Warne but Slats is horrendous.

 

[Second Spitter]

Doesn't help that everybody in the box wants to be the colour.

Slightly out of date, but this image is pretty good

'Visiting fast bowlers get carried away with the bounce', 'Hard to get an LBW in Perth' and 'the WACA pitch of old' the standouts of that lot.

Re; Warne's 99, reminds me of how at every Adelaide Test Mark Taylor always mentions how he got run out twice in two Tests there.

Vince is basically Bell

If Bell had ever had an average under 40.

 

[Daemon]

If Bell had ever had an average under 40.

20% prettier than Bell imo which corresponds to a 20% drop in batting skills

Needs more "You get full value for your shots"

As Slats weighs in with a "Not too hot"

Disagree. Bell had the guide to the slips nailed to perfection. When Vince does it it flies off the edge at awkward angles.

 

[Starfighter]

You know, I think maybe this pitch does have some pace in it.

A personal favourite was when he played a beautifully timed glide through backwards point, called "yep!" and was promptly caught.

Thommo's bouncer.
