***Official*** 1st Test at The Gabba

[Matteh]

He's looked pretty solid, especially compared to Harmy.

 

[pasag]

Langer looking so good. Just drove like a maniac to get some errands done, made it back with seconds to spare.

 

[simmy]

Fletcher has just been downright stupid. No Read no Panesar. No clue.

 

[Anna]

I can sort of understand the no-Read bit, but no Panesar? Ridiculous IMO.

 

[irfan]

Yep, same old, same old for England.

Panesar's exclusion was brainless really, they shud kno they cant swing the Kookaburra as well as the Duke and Panesar should then be the main source of wickets with the seam attack chosen

 

[pasag]

Flintoff, what an amazing person. Carrying the entire England here. Langer gone for 82.

 

[chalky]

Finally one of Langers square drives goes to hand

 

[Goughy]

KP doesnt drop 'em

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

anyways i have a bad feeling 140's is the danger...

Haha ****, Nostradamus.

 

[simmy]

Flintoff just never lets England down. Good catch too from KP.

I am still so angry about the Panesar thing. Best finger spinner in the world becomes the second best in the squad?!?!?!

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGG.

What an idiot. Giles is pointless. Offers nothing.

 

[Matteh]

Bowled Freddie.

 

[Anna]

Yay Argh, my throat....Sports Night is not good for one's voice Twas fun tho Think i might go to bed now....Ultimate frisbee training at 7:30am I'm a nutter Nite all

What the **** are you talking about. Panesar is nowhere NEAR the best spinner in the world. Warne nearly has 700 wickets and Murali isn't far behind. Jesus Christ.

 

[Goughy]

Agreed

 

[Matteh]

Some seaming going on now.

 

[Burgey]

KP doesnt drop 'em

Hey?

I just can't work out why they didn't have 2 gullies in early - Langer scores so many runs there.

 

[simmy]

lol sorry i meant best FINGER SPINNER

 

[superkingdave]

Anderson has bowled some loose deliveries and some decent overs, but he's put on at least a yard of pace since last year. Averaging 86 and just got one over 90 he's been bowling quicker than Freddie

 

[Matteh]

Odds that Plunkett runs out Ponting?

 

[silentstriker]

lol sorry i meant best FINGER SPINNER

Harbhajan's better IMO, even though I don't rate Bhajji highly, he has the doosra and has taken a lot of wickets, including a hat trick against the aussies.
