*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

[flibbertyjibber]

We are only just halfway through the match in terms of overs so we can bat on for at least another 20 overs if we want. I think we will bat as we are till tea then throw the bat after it for an hour and try and get as close to 400 in front as possible. If we were thinking of declaring at 350 in front we would have already upped the ante.

 

[Spark]

Sublime batting.

 

[King Pietersen]

That 2nd boundary was as ***y a stroke as you're ever likely to see. What a player he is.

 

[grecian]

that's one of the best shots in world cricket

Yeah, beautiful. Always nice to get a reminder of how stunning this sport can be.

Runs will not be an issue. Time will be.

 

[blahblahblah]

what lead would be good enough?

 

[Quaggas]

Surely just waiting for KP's 200

 

[blahblahblah]

I think they should get 700 and try bowling Australia.

 

[Spark]

Hmmm, not quite sure what's happening out there. Surely this is the time to put the foot down at four for a million?

Probably will now X has been brought back on. Worst case scenario you gift a couple of wickets and he stays in the side for the next test.

KP, hurry the **** up and get to 200. I wanna watch Bonnar vs Pokrajac.

Getting my ass kicked in SC 2 today. :/

What's the weather in Adelaide like? Am wondering whether I should head home to watch the evening session or just continue gaming. Any word on that from those in Adelaide?

 

[Spark]

Could be some rain.

 

[JBH001]

Thanks Spark, as in a forecast for rain or it's looking like rain?

Edit/ NW - Cricinfo update also says rain. Well, time for a couple more matches on battlenet then.

 

[TumTum]

Unlikely to get any play after Tea Adelaide weather radar loop and lightning tracker

 

[Goughy]

what lead would be good enough?

300

 

[Bun]

It IS raining!

They've been playing through some very light drizzle for the last 15 minutes or so and if it gets heavier then they'll come off. The forecast says there may be a shower before close of play.
