**Official** 2nd Test @Adelaide, 6th-10th December

[King Kane]

Bumrah shows Siraj how it's done, he just takes a wicket with a minimum of fuss with no need for a celebrappeal.

 

[Xix2565]

A fine for Siraj would sort out this appeal he has going on.

Taking after Broad in all the worst ways.

 

[Kirkut]

Looking forward to a chorus of "NO RUUNNN!!" from both of these.

 

[Burgey]

Surely the most entertaining and mercurial fast bowler since Akram. Almost a right handed Wasim, in fact. Not so much the action, but abbreviated run up, fast arm action, fast, swing and seam both ways. Just so good and brilliant to watch

At least Broad could cope with crowd sledging

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Siraj bowling pretty well here. Got his speeds up again and hitting good lines.

@Johan

absurd

Australia should lay out a flattie so that Rohit breaks Bumrah

 

[Xix2565]

At least Broad could cope with crowd sledging

Broad did declare a series void though. Think that's still a step beyond Siraj.

This is a really important innings for both of these guys. If Smith fails again, you have to wonder when the knives might start coming out.

 

[Nintendo]

That was an interesting leave from Smith. Step down and did a 270.

For Smith? Shiiit, you'd think not for a very long time?

The only limitation here can be that he cannot bowl marathon spells, like Anderson on the final day of the first Ashes test in 2013. I wouldn't complain though, it's a privilege for any cricket fan to watch a talent like this in the current generation

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Missing a trick again here, not bringing Ashwin on early to Smith

 

[honestbharani]

I wonder when sides will seriously take it as a tactic to look to bowl sides out for 250 when they are bowled out for 150. Its almost always the case that sides try too hard to bowl the other out for 150 when they are bowled out for 150 and it almost never works. I will be bloody happy if Aus only made 250 here as they look set for 400.

 

[Nintendo]

Ponting bought up a 3rd slip to Smith an over ago. That siraj ball didn't carry but punters definitely onto something.

 

[ankitj]

Bring on Ashwin. He got Smith with a beauty last time at Adelaide.

 

[Burgey]

Jeez that ball from Siraj to Smith earlier this over took off out of nowhere.

Good shot that from Marnus. Feet moving much better

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Siraj unlucky this spell/been played well too. Really is half an inch away from beating/catching the edge.

Too full there.

 

[Burgey]

What a **** way to go. Seriously
