***Official*** India in Australia 2014-5

Dan is dancing naked in the streets as we speak

 

[viriya]

He had is best year in 2012 when he switched diets though.. I think it's just that he's had a bad year.. He bowled 64 overs in a match back then:

Nasty one that

 

[viriya]

Everytime a bowler hits a batsman things are a bit awkward now.. never will be the same imo.

I was about to say that the Vijay wicket came from those two bouncers from Johno in that previous over. That Kohli strike made me reword what I originally wrote. Man, that was hard to watch.

 

[smash84]

that was a good bouncer

 

[dognutz]

Don't think I was alone feeling a shiver just then

 

[wiff]

Concern over someone's health is not a bad thing

 

[smash84]

Mitch bowling short and causing problems

 

[dognutz]

But good bouncer none the less

 

[hendrix]

I love Johnson.

 

[Burgey]

Perfect fast bowling to get Vijay. Softened him up with a couple at the body, got the play and miss to a wider one last ball of the previous over then nicked off first ball of that one.

You look at the wicket ball and wonder why he played at it, but the set up was sublime.

I don't think I've ever seen a batsmen being hit not be awkward.

It wasn't like everyone was baying for blood before hughe's.

 

[Burgey]

I love Johnson.

 

[Dan]

It disappoints me that I'll only be able to celebrate that way 8 times this summer.

 

[viriya]

I don't think I've ever seen a batsmen being hit not be awkward.

Yea but the concern is a bit more pronounced now.. you know what everyone is thinking of. not saying it's a bad thing.

 

[Spark]

I don't think I've ever seen a batsmen being hit not be awkward.

Morkel's over to Clarke at Cape Town was definitely had an element of baying for blood from the crowd

 

[dognutz]

Well that's lunch and this little black duck is off to the pub for countermeal, hair of the dog and cricket on the big screen - god life is hard sometimes

 

[Antihippy]

Yea but the concern is a bit more pronounced now.. you know what everyone is thinking of. not saying it's a bad thing.

Yeah that's fair enough. Mitch did look pretty upset for awhile there.

It may well be coincidence but when Siddle went vegan he seemed not to hit the deck as hard. He claimed to feel fitter than ever which is probably true with regard to stamina but at the expense of power/strength. I remember him charging in and smashing the deck with all he had late in the day when everyone was stuffed. Maybe he was simply younger then or maybe its the bananas - hard to tell.

Didn't he go veggie before the last India tour? Or has he subsequently gone Vegan since?
