It's a reference to the sweep, as in "chimney sweep".

Ah ok.

And "chicken and chips"? Rhyming slang for "slips"??

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Smith still could be top scorer in every innings with Wade currently 1 behind.

Hope MMarsh makes a score here. Been the one bloke whose head has been fully in the game from the start.

Cannot wait for when England captain Joe Root gathers his team around Siddle, led his side, caps off, in three cheers then shakes Siddle's hand.

 

[Second Spitter]

Australia would not have lost this if Burgey wasn’t banned.

How despondent are the commentators realising they'll have to spend a bit longer in the box and not at the golf course.
