[nightprowler10]

A lot of rain expected for the rest of the week.

Yesterday they showed an interview with Warne (conducted before this test) in which he was asked a question regarding himself and Murali.

Warne dwelled long on the number of wickets Murali has taken against the minnows and named Zimbabwe and Bangladesh and emphasised that he himself had not played much against Zimbabwe and NO TESTS till date against Bangladesh and asked the reporter to draw his own conclusion.

Wonder why Ponting didnt allow him to prove a point today? Maybe he thought 118 in 20 overs was enough and dint want to rub it in.

Or the fact that his shoulder could be injured?

Could be. Every little bit helps even providence

 

[Ikki]

Could be. Every little bit helps even providence

Macgill - 8-fer. Not sure Warne would want to be out.

Hotel Babylon was a disgrace. What a disappointment that was.

Didn't have breast?

 

[TT Boy]

Didn't have breast?

I believe Max Beesley got his ones out.

Seriously though how the hell can anyone watch such a show, to think I paid my TV license fee for such ****. It’s up there with Hustle in insulting one’s intelligence too much.

I didn't think it was that bad... mind you, I only watched the last 15 minutes or so.

 

[Craig]

Bangladesh making a game of this!

So Richard and Langeveldt they don't seserve Test status why?

 

[TT Boy]

Four down, Mr Cricket is gone.

I just saw the highlights on TV. Judging from the ball that got Martyn, the pitch seems to be playing some tricks. And from what I saw of Mortaza (one ball, admittedly), there's no way he's faster than McGrath or Clark.

 

[andyc]

Oh god. Imagine the embarrassment if Bangladesh force Australia to follow on...

 

[SJS]

Macgill - 8-fer. Not sure Warne would want to be out.

Oh sure.

I just feel he need not have said this. There used to be an equally raging controversy about Sachin and Lara and they were both asked similar questions all the time. I cant recall a single occasion when either of them replied in any manner other than acknowleding the greatness of the other and just refused to say anything remotely negative.

This only enhances their own worth in the eyes of everyone except the fanatics.

Compared to the other crap on BBC probably it isn’t but it’s just so superficially sleek and up it’s own *** for it to be enjoyable.

Hussey out bowled.
Gilchrist will get a century.

 

[TheEpic]

Sorry, don't mean to be rude to Australian fans, (or even those who decide to support Australia for no apparent reason).....but........






HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAHAHAHAH!

 

[TT Boy]

Wonder if Mortaza will bowl around the wicket to Gilchrist.

 

[Craig]

I bet the likes of Ian Chappell, Neil Harvey will be loving this if Australia are forced to follow on or end up drawing or possibily lossing this Test match (obviously a long way to go but Australia are four down and Bangladesh must be feeling confident) considering their reaction to Australia's Ashes loss.

If this doesn't lift the Bangladeshi team and give them a lot of confidence nothing will.

 

[Ikki]

Oh sure.

Sorry mate, I don't want to point fingers or say who started it. Obviously, there have been words said in both parties. I don't see the point in pointing out Warne.

 

[GIMH]

I wish I could watch this, it sounds sooooooo good

I always root for Bangladesh in every test they play (except against England coz we certainly don't wanna be the first major side to fall to them) but well....if they beat the Aussies....what the hell is going on?

When it was only an ODI, people said "it's a fluke, anything can happen in ODIs"

Well, Australia better hope they get back in this one because there are no excuses !

 

[Zinzan]

Okay cricinfo....come clean, this is just a belated April fools joke isn't it
