*Official* Fourth Test at the MCG

[Spikey]

This is just such weird cricket. Impossible to explain.

England still can't bat and there's a big wind. Done.

 

[Top_Cat]

Jury's out. Need hotspot to see if it was just a massive fart.

I wonder what the verdict would be were a batsman to provably knock over the bails with a fart?

 

[Shri]

Wow, that second ball drifted cray.

 

[Burgey]

Lyon!!!!!!!!

 

[hendrix]

yessssssss

 

[morgieb]

Aahahahaha KP.

 

[Spikey]

at least that stupid shot was somewhat justified

 

[Maximas]

ahh fantastic, silly shot though

 

[NUFAN]

Don't change KP.

 

[Shri]

Lyon gets a Pfeifer.

Brainless cricket from Pietersen

Nah, you can't blame him.

 

[Nate]

Taste itttttttttttttttttttttttttt

 

[Spark]

Geez Bill was brave to call that so early given how much wind was swirling about

 

[Neil Pickup]

This is probably a good time to go to bed.

 

[Jono]

Yeah....

 

[Tangles]

If the situation was reversed and Clarke was not out with the tail doing this I'd be raging hard.

Bad end but what else could he do.

He knows a great New South Welshman when he sees one. Harris was never dropping it

 

[Maximas]

so keen for Monty to leave another straight one

 

[Top_Cat]

Why is Slater saying (more than once) that this is Lyon's first 5 in OZ?

EDIT: Because it is, FFS. In my mind, I remember 5's against Pakistan but that were Ritz.

Nah, you can't blame him.

Absolutely can. Both long off and long on in place and huge drift with the wind. Slog sweep or even a freaking switch hit would've been a better percentage shot.
