1st Test at Brisbane, 8th-12th of December 2021

[Gob]

This 20 mins rain break feels like 2 hours

 

[Burgey]

What's the forecast like for tomorrow morning?

 

[Aritro]

Loving the minimalist set design of Foxtel's studio. Large flat surfaces of silvery grey complemented by the presenters' blue suits, the background dominated by a shot of the Gabba. Just wonderful.

 

[Gob]

What's the forecast like for tomorrow morning?

Nothing dramatic. Just a 20 mins passing storm according to accustephen

 

[GIMH]

When does the game start?

 

[TheJediBrah]

2023 at Lords

 

[Gnske]

When does the game start?

[MW1304]

We were promised more rain than this, disappointing.

We were promised even less about an hour ago

...oh.

 

[kingkallis]

We? I always assumed you were South African

No, FP!

I am an Indian. I do like South African cricket team as well but not anymore. I dont like involvement of politics in sports.

So England's best performer today is their 12th (main) man.... rain.

Best player they could have brought over from their shores, tbf.

Tbf the rain lasted 1h, they spent another 40 minutes drying the ground and then they couldn't come out because of bad light.

Such a bad decision to bat today

It’s been raining here for weeks, pitch was green and all you needed to do was look up to know that it was perfect bowling conditions

Forecasts change

Current conditions don’t

If it’s bright sunshine tomorrow then Root has totally stuffed up here

 

[Apex Predator]

No hope without Kohli ?
The Team won the series because there was no Kohli.

Haha so true.. Guys played without fear when he was gone. Picked the right playing XI as well.

This was a pitch Jimmy should have played on.. Root & Silverwood f***d it all up. Now what's the point of Jimmy trundling at a flat MCG?

 

[honestbharani]

Sounds like a good toss to lose, tbh. No captain wants to bowl first at The Gabba since Nasser Hussain's decision and yet this seems like the type of a day either side's bowling attack would have loved to be bowling on.

Inverse Nasser Hussein eh?

Ashes retained in 9 more days of cricket ?
