F my T's

Stoked4Lyon!

Very good seed, very good snare.

I don't think sitting on the bowling is going to work with this new Aussie attack.

 

[Burgey]

Lyon looks the world's youngest 40 year old.

Ponting and Clarke showing the difference good fielding makes to any side, really.

Absolutely massive.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Psssst Tony...your microphone's on!

 

[Spikey]

Clarke contiunes to have a dream run with his bowling changes btw

LYON! Someone describe it for the people who can't be watching on tv? Was it good bowling or poor batting?

Was a fine ball. Around the wicket, good length, puff of dust, bounce and turn. Caught the defensive push and Clarke with a screamer low left at slip. Back to you Richie.

Looks like Mahela ain't waiting around. Probably the right plan.

Perfect off break. Drifted into the left hander from round the wicket, pitched just outside off, turned away. Batsman defended and it caught the edge.

Definitely need more sweepers for Jayawardene though by the looks of things.

 

[adub]

tossed it up, it gripped and took the outside edge and Sanga came a long way forward to try and smother it. Fantastic catch diving to the left by Clarke.

Yeah, I didn’t agree when Hussey was criticised on here yesterday for scoring too slowly () but Kumar just dug his own grave considering the conditions or attack looks far more benign than yesterday.

Tony's now talking about 'a bloke called Cunningham' who first took a wicket first ball for Australia in a test debut...2 minutes ago he was discussing this with his co-presenter and said "What's his name...Cunningham!?...Never heard of the bloke". Then there was a pause and he said, "...and he's Australian?"

Obviously while thinking he was off air.

 

[Jayzamann]

I really like how slack many commentators are with keeping their background conversations quiet. You always hear Healy or Slater laughing or sharing snide remarks in a not-so-subtle way.

 

[Spark]

Just got home. Summary? Pitch still weird?

 

[Burgey]

Genuine drift for Lyon here

 

[Sylvester]

Probably spinning it too much, going to be hard to get wickets bowling there. Good pressure building though.

 

[Spark]

Love the line Lyon's bowling atm.

 

[Julian87]

So awesome; the starts of Copeland and Lyon.

 

[Burgey]

Would sacrifice a bucket of chicken wings to have Mahela out before lunch.
