Small

Is putting a midget in at short leg some kind of sick joke?

Small people tend to be more acrobatic

In the same way babies are aerodynamic

 

[morgieb]

Why the **** does Fox think Howard, Warne and Waugh is an appropriate commentary pairing?

 

[Teja.]

What did Paine say to Pujara?

 

[cnerd123]

Is he varying his flight and angles of attack

it's more that his length is impeccable and he's getting turn.

 

[Gob]

Still don't understand why would Starc change one of the smoothest actions in the game. I'm no fast bowling expert but holding the ball up in front of you improves accuracy and makes you more side on which is helpful to generate spin..I remember Brett Lee doing the opposite which made him a very good test bowler from an average two length bowler

 

[social]

That's Mudgereeba isn't it mate?

Yes mate

tbf it’s on a flood plain but Surfers is same & it’s built on sand

 

[stephen]

Oh ffs how many balls have to fall safe?

 

[morgieb]

Starc really needs a bat-pad.

 

[stephen]

Did you get flooded yourself? Saw some roads were cut down your way.

 

[Gnske]

Take it like a man you absolute simp

 

[OverratedSanity]

That pujara fifty at joburg was on one of the worst pitches of recent years. Mention that before making fun of SR you dumbass commentators

Edit: oh this is the correct thread

 

[Gob]

That as they say could have gone anywhere

 

[trundler]

Everybody wants test batsmen to bat out of their skin and go down with a fight until ChePu rocks up and scores at a strike rate of 20.

 

[Teja.]

Not the most authoritative pull shot but will take an injection to the score.

Yeah batting time might be strategic or whatever but it's ****ing boring as ****

 

[Teja.]

Kohli 27 (79) looking to overtake Pujara 30 (140).

 

[Burner]

You can feel the commentators' frustration with Pujara's batting heh.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Good

 

[Gnske]

Is there anyone who actually believes a peaceful Border Gavaskar series is good for anyone?
