1st Test - Australia v New Zealand Brisbane Dec 1 - Dec 5 2011

[Mr Angry]

The solution is simple in places where bad light stops play regularly, start an hour earlier. Too logical to get up.

Or Queensland could bring in daylight savings and give them the hour earlier start by default.
I blame Queensland.

 

[Twizzle]

The lights were on, had been on for a while. It didn't look bad at all.

Couldn't figure out why they waited so long, it's not like it was going to get better at that time of day if there wasn't enough light when they went off in the first place

sorry, wasn't aware of that, no audio at the pub but its worth is not to have to listen to the commentators

 

[Leagueaddict]

Ponting looking solid...Clarke looking...kinda ok. Not a great Clarke supporter. He's a bit piss poor under real pressure. Shouldn't even still be in after yesterdays new shit ruling but then i'll be the one praising the guy if he gets a ton today!

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Sam Loxton passed away.

The curtains fade and the cows get upset. That is not the only place it happens.

 

[African Monkey]

Yay a wicket :crazy:. We haven't bowled too badly this morning.

 

[Leagueaddict]

Punters gone...shouldn't have reviewed that one. Always looked plum. Must be hard though when your in good form and nearing the century.:x

 

[aussies1st]

Brilliant to bring up the 50.

 

[BunniesMan]

So NSW breeds cows that are too stupid to tell the time? And we've invented sun proof curtains?

Pretty sure it's just QLD f**kwits arguing against change for the sake of it.

Don't let that bias affect you too much mate. Ponting was scratchy, Clarke has looked the goods all day.

 

[MSIH]

He'll get out now.

 

[BunniesMan]

Keeper drops an easy catch. What's that Pakistani doing dressed as a kiwi...

And hussey gorn. He should be opening. Watto should be at 6 next test.

 

[Iafeta]

Reece Young. Dreadful wicket-keeping.
Could have had two wickets in two balls and be right into their tail.

 

[aussies1st]

Clarke better make a 100 with all the luck he has been getting.
Hussey starting to become a worry. 5 innings without a good score now.

 

[African Monkey]

Bracewell should have had Clarke again now Hussey goes. Hussey was very negative today getting bogged down by Vettori all morning.

 

[MSIH]

Reece Young. Dreadful wicket-keeping.

If Clarke gets caught it changes everything. As in the extra time taken means that Vettori probably bowls a different ball, Hussey's got a different mindset etc etc.

 

[BunniesMan]

Well we're technically 6 for coz Haddin doesn't count. And the ONE negative of not having Mitch in the team, he can't pitch in with a valuable 40 at number 8. Tail looks a lot longer now.

Hopefuly Clarke gets his 100 and we get a 30 run lead.

Vettori's bowled that same ball for over a decade. Hussey defended it. I would agree if it was Hussey charging down the track and hitting it over the top, but it was Hussey defending a stock standard delivery.

Nah just my own personal tastes - my brother thinks he's great! :?

>He'll get out now

I hope not on 99!
