*Official* Third Test at the WACA

[Goughy]

Ive not seen any cricket the last 2 days. Australia surely massive, massive favourites here right? or is is getting easier to bat on?

 

[Burgey]

Yeah, Chappell calling Alistair Cook being called Nick Cook is annoying, not to mention disrespectful.

A pretty tense hour and a half in front of us.

Nick Cook a better technician tbf.

 

[GIMH]

If we manage to lose this, I will never watch cricket again. And I'm being serious because I had enough of these mediocre performances.

Will you stop posting too?

Fairweather fan.

Really? I recall him as an ODI specialist who couldn't/didn't make it at test level. Although, tbh, I never saw too much of him. His ODI record is outstanding though.

Blooddy hell, heart in mouth

It is getting easier to bat on, but there is still assistance there for the bowlers especially with the new pill. Australia are massive favourites though as you say - it is their game to lose.

Edit/ Looking forward to seeing how Mitch Johnson goes. He should be on in an over or two.

Smith is not a Test number six. That Harris shot was woeful and Haddin wasn't much better.

We haven't had a great Test in all honesty, better than the last match, but really riding on the performances of Hussey, Watson and Johnson.

In other news, I put $100 on England at $5.1 after cop yesterday.

 

[GIMH]

Wtf you doing Cook?

 

[JBH001]

Right, Mitch on. Sooner than expected. Let's see that swing.

Edit/ Calm down, Alistair. Where is that famous temperament?

Jokes mate.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good grief we don't need a run out.

 

[GIMH]

That's better

 

[Stapel]

Actually, that was a good shot by Johnson! Proper football technique!

 

[GIMH]

And that

 

[GIMH]

Good signs for Johnson but good intent from Strauss and Cook

 

[JBH001]

Jokes mate.

Oh, whoops. Sorry Burgey, been a while since I've taken part in these match threads.

If England are going after Mitch, I don't see it ending well for them. Not a good plan.

 

[benchmark00]

Yessss.

 

[JBH001]

Gone! Plumb!

 

[pskov]

Have to say that didn't look out on first look to me.
