[Pothas]

Holy ****.

 

[fredfertang]

hmmm - might go to bed now

 

[AlanJLegend]

Yes!!!! Owned!

Geez, was seriously too close to cut, really ordinary shot. Not a great ball, but it wasn't there for the cut.

Strauss cutting upwards on the ball, not really on top of it either.

Here we go!

Hell of an atmosphere in my apartment this morning. Just woke my girlfriend up with a bout of clapping as the players walked out. Will be supporting the Aussies with two slices of toast smeared in vegemite.

The cigarette industry thanks you.

[Joao]

Got im!!! Gone!!!! Piss off your out!!!!!!

I was going to say that!

Gone! YES! Piss off your out, Ben Hilfenhous!!!

Siddle's just got a dreadful face tbh.

Bet te expression on Strauss' is worse right now.

 

[Jacknife]

Of all the balls Strauss could of wished for ,that was it, what a **** wit

 

[Furball]

Have faith you bunch of softies.

 

[simmy]

Thats the worst cut shot I've ever seen Strauss play and he does it then.

 

[Top_Cat]

.....aaaaand the Under The Lid thread just became redundant.

 

[Sylvester]

Hilfy still a bit short for his swing but excellent start.

 

[Son Of Coco]

England love the first ball at The Gabba.

Edit...maybe it was the first ball I saw

 

[Pizzorno]

False dawn for the Aussies that. Bell's gonna make 'em suffer later like the big ginger machine that he is.

 

[Woodster]

Average delivery which Strauss would put away nine times out of ten. May have been a bit close, may have bounced a little, but that's his area. Strength can also be a weakness. Bad start but long day.

Siddle has a dracula collar.
