***Official*** 2nd Test at Adelaide

[Cow]

Hope you're watching the current over btw.

haha.. yeah that last one did a bit.. more seam movement than swing though

edit- defo some swing there.

 

[Starfighter]

That looked a good shout. Height the only problem.

 

[Gnske]

Looked very leg-side

 

[morgieb]

Legsidish but I'd have thought about referring given the new rules.

 

[Gnske]

Geez on second thought....

 

[Starfighter]

Haha, well, um, seems it was a good shout.

 

[Cow]

Thank you Steve Smith

 

[OverratedSanity]

Lol

 

[morgieb]

I mean under the old rules you could probably say it wasn't worth it live but yeah that should've been referred.

 

[Starfighter]

That difficulty the English batsmen are having getting forward against our faster bowlers certainly isn't helping them.

The umpiring has been verging on poor here.

 

[Cow]

Yeah... new rules.. that's really dumb not to review. Hazlewood needs to tell Smith to 'get f'ed' in that situation and take control.

 

[StephenZA]

I rally wish the Aussies would get things right side up... it is runs/wickets not wickets/runs....

 

[Gnske]

If Cook's wicket was still worth something they would have reviewed that

Once you start putting the FoW and the bowling figures that way round we'll say it's the right way. Putting the smaller number first simply makes more sense.



England really need to work the singles this innings. This is fine from Stoneman but more nudging would also be good.

 

[Gnske]

Sublime from Starc

 

[stephen]

Starc is bowling pure puss here.

 

[Cow]

Mitchell Starc is England's best hope.

 

[CarlsbergXpress]

Morning all, well I never we have a sniff. Bowled Jimmy.

 

[Starfighter]

Starc is bowling pure puss here.

No doubt he'll still get three by the end.

 

[mintykip]

Right, if England don't come out and at least try and make a bit of a statement or whatever cricket cliche you want to use, then send them all home. Out of nothing we have a sniff, a tiny one but still a sniff, no body now wants to see a clueless 180 all out.
