***Official*** 1st Test at Brisbane

[the big bambino]

I rate Anderson to Steyn like I do Lyons to Warne. In each case you’d prefer the latter but understand you are lucky to get them once a generation. In the meantime you are happy with the former because you can go through a lot of dross before you get bowlers as good as our problems finding a spinner post Warne shows.

 

[Grumpy]

I honestly thought it couldn't get more unbearable.

Then I heard KP.

 

[Starfighter]

Ah, trying to finish it off quickly now.

I get where you're coming from but that's a poor analogy.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Sounds like Warne would like to be back at the hotel.... bar.

 

[Cow]

Definite push on Sanchez. Clear penalty.

 

[stephen]

I thought it was a great analogy.

List of qualities that Ball has as a test match bowler:

(start list)

(end list)

 

[morgieb]

Disappointing lack of intent from Bancroft.

 

[Cow]

Bancroft reminds me of a young Michael Barrymore.

He has played well in the second innings. The selectors will feel vindicated.

Superficially resembles Stuart Broad?

Anyway I've had enough of this - will get some zeds instead of waiting to see if Bairstow and Bancroft share a man hug

 

[Burgey]

That drive on the up by Bancroft there was a beauty

 

[stephen]

If Warmer would get out it would help my LMS but at the same time I don't want him to get out due to patriotism.

 

[mr_mister]

this will be awesome if they both remain unbeaten

 

[mr_mister]

ha even the commentators are shitting all over the dinky pull

 

[mr_mister]

and it looks like Bancroft cbf blocking it out to let Warner ton up

 

[mr_mister]

6, 4, then another boundary will get Warner there

 

[Starfighter]

Whoa, someone just opened an aperture a bit much.

 

[morgieb]

Taking drinks right now is so pointless.

 

[mr_mister]

Whoa, someone just opened an aperture a bit much.

if youre talking about me, Pup and Nichloas put it in my head
