*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

[steds]

And the folly of Stokes' selection comes home to roost. Absolutely no protection for Prior.

 

[Spark]

That's a seriously embarrassing way to get out, though. Get in line ffs.

Dear me.

 

[GIMH]

This is the worst England performance of the 21st century

 

[Spark]

But what an over. Wow.

 

[Son Of Coco]

This is outstanding. Broad should be fined for almost standing on silly mid-off. Hope he got a suitable spray on the way off.

 

[Cabinet96]

Who thought picking five batsman and six number 11s was a good idea?

 

[JontyPanesar]

As much as so many of us would like to hate on Mark Nicholas, what an epic build-up to that wicket of Broad

 

[Pothas]

This is the worst England performance of the 21st century

New Zealand first test.

This hurts a lot more though.

 

[grecian]

pussies, ****ing pussies, great fast-bowling, WTF, he bowled it on leg stump, ****ing should have been 4.

I'm not taking this very well.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

In England with nothing happening off the wicket, I had wanted Johnson in the side. Back in Oz I didn't think he'd be needed, but he's been the pick of the lot so far.

To be fair, Prior offers absolutely no protection for the tail.

 

[GIMH]

I count two batsmen

 

[benchmark00]

Was that the longest golden duck in test cricket history without there being a scheduled break?

 

[Spark]

I can't help but think that was deliberate though. Broad was going so far across the whole time at the Gabba, a fair few of us thought that he was at risk of getting leg peg knocked over.

 

[Son Of Coco]

And can the umpires check the ****ing no balls themselves from time to time!?

 

[Son Of Coco]

.

I'm not taking this very well.

Must've been ones where a number 11 was shielded from strike for more than seven minutes before his first ball.

 

[Burgey]

Don't blame you. It's beyond ridiculous

 

[Jono]

Have a hard look at yourself England ffs. Soft as butter.

Yeah probs.
