*Official* First Test at the Gabba

[TT Boy]

Cook and Colly together. A sight for the Gods.

 

[morgieb]

Can anyone tell me why England batted first? Yeah the sun's out now but still...I would've taken advantage of the cloud cover.

The X-man getting some turn! Can't wait to see Swann on this wicket.

 

[M0rphin3]

Jeez, turn for doherty, Swannies gonna rip thru the oz.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good ball,poor shot,good catch.Game on.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Was a great delivery from Siddle... if only got it to seam like that more often.

Reckon he moves it around a bit more than people say actually. Although, considering some say he does nothing with it, he doesn't have to do much.

Beautiful bowling from Doherty

 

[morgieb]

Oooh....that was close.

Reckon Doherty's over-spin a bigger weapon, as Warne's was for years. If Swann just tries to rip every ball, don't think he'll be much of a threat at all.

 

[vcs]

Doherty has already done more than anything I've ever seen from Hauritz.

 

[Athlai]

Pitch will dry out, Swann won't get the same amount of turn. Australia win by an innings.

 

[TumTum]

Loving that Hauritz has been axed. You can see what a difference it makes having a decent spinner in the side.

 

[simmy]

Wow.... CW gets a little biased in the early hours of the night :P

 

[kingpin]

You're being very unfair to Swann if you think he just steps up and rips it as hard as he can every delivery. He's a classical English off-spinner who mixes up his flight and turn to great effect.

 

[Ruckus]

Siddle looks like such a dirty bastard with that attempted mo haha

 

[Son Of Coco]

Bloody hell Warney, just about posted re: Collingwood and S.Clark about 5 minutes ago. But didn't because I thought I was being silly.

Wish I had now.

Nice work Siddle. Keep 'em there!

 

[outbreak]

I agree, Hauritz never seems to look threatening/contain/add pressure. At least Doherty can be a threat.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Sidz bye Colly

 

[Spark]

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiids
