1st Ashes Test: Australia v England @ Gabba Dec 8-12, 2021

[_snafu_]

“One that Mitchell Starc didn’t get quite right, luckily it got a wicket…”

Warne concludes it wasn't a plan because Mitch Starc.

Sure it wasn’t ‘clunge’?

Warnie knows all about clunge

Cummins would hammer you if you asked nicely. Keen to please people.

Huss was too nice to pound cheeks. I wonder what the term for that is @SLRBRONCOS

Huss always gave powerbottom vibes so wanted to be the poundee I presume

Starc’s had the rub of the green and he was leaking runs

Better than Warnies days on tour leaking green after a bit of a rub

[Bazal]

It's in quarantine.

I saw an article somewhere this morning saying the system was down and likely gone for the rest of the Test.

Will see if I can track it down again.

“ You can’t flirt in Aus”

I agree with Skull because every time I do I end up with AVO against me.

Makes thin nicks harder to review because hot spot only picks up big nicks.

Look I think that's more to do with the fact you go straight from 'Hey can I buy you a drink' to flopping it out on the pool table.

That sort of thing only works at the Chardies

Can't find the article but I do agree with you, it does make DRS referrals for thin nicks very difficult.

If you're a batsman and know the system is down you'd be half tempted to send a decision upstairs.

#1 batsman v #1 bowler

Busted ribs is what Hussey should thank for getting a test debut

He would have earnt one eventually.

Ian Chappell has so far this stint in commentary referenced:

John Snow
Derrick Underwood
Bob Massie picking a ball in a Shield game
Dennis Lillee and Geoff Thompson captaining against each other in a Shield final

I don't even think he's talked about the game in progress

Haze having not much luck atm.
