***Official*** West Indies in Australia

[Jono]

Colin Miller is an enigma to me. I've always wondered what he must have been thinking during his test career.

He we have an old bloke, hardly anybody noticed, plying his trade for years in the domestic comp.

Suddenly at the age of about 50 he gets plucked out of nowhere and stuck in one of the greatest test sides to ever play the game, spends a few years there and wins test player of the year.....then disappears.

When i think of Colin Miller I can't help but think he got caught in a time warp or something. Bet he was surprised as anyone when he had his life turned upside down out of the blue.

LOL! So true.

Anyway Wavell Hinds out to Brett Lee. Beaut of a ball. The very ball after Devon Smith was dropped.

Lovely bouncer from Lee, wasn't all that short, but really reared up.

 

[Pratters]

A very good crowd for the beginning of the match. All true cricket fans have come for this one.

And a 'boring boring' chant had begun after that drop.

So Australia into bat by about tea time? Smith gone.

 

[aussie]

Lee's just running in so smoothly & hitting 150 & Smith goes, lovely

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

And two for Lee. Reasonable ball but nothing special, just hit straight to gully. Second good catch for Hayden. West Indies committing suicide pretty effectively.

 

[Pratters]

'not much footwork' as Benaud pointed out so accurately leading to the second dismissal.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Nice to see the standing ovation for Lara as he comes out in his final test in Australia. I hope he makes runs.

 

[UncleTheOne]

Well it's up to Lara to dig the Windies out of trouble.

I think they were saying "Warney, Warney'

 

[Adamc]

Second-last chance for Lara...make it count (please).

word, i'm sure most people want that.

Quite possibly the worst catch celebration I have ever seen from Matt Hayden.

Bah. Why?

 

[Golden Goose]

Can you at least limit yourself to just saying that on every other post please?

 

[Pratters]

Taylor again bringing on his view that he would have quote - 'loved' Australia to go in with 5 bowlers.

Geez, you seem to have picked up on that rather quickly for a "new" member.

*sigh*

 

[UncleTheOne]

The Clown would have been up off his seat there.

 

[Pratters]

Symonds showing dissent at the decision in my opinion staring for so long at Dar.

Crowd was chanting again. Was that Warney as well according to people? I am hearing boring some how.
