1st Test: Australia v Pakistan at Brisbane on Dec 15-19, 2016

[AlwaysGreen]

Waqar Younis is a bit of a hog, a single or a three of the last ball of the last 4 overs.

Reminds me of the dickhead teammate i used to run out every second innings in under 14s.

 

[hineyrulz]

Still no luck for Haze.

 

[TheParraboy]

Younis Khan 11*

We don't remove him before he reaches 30 or so, he goes on to get a big 150

We need to strike

Not long before Garry is on

absolute diphshits both of them, throw in Clarke in there as well, worst trio you could ever put together to analyse a game

I don't mind Clarke. He states the obvious too often but will hopefully improve. Whilst Clarke is a bit of a knob at least he's not a full blown narcissist like the other 2 cretins.

 

[Incorrect]

Great pre game analysis from Chapelli and Warne criticising absolutely everything and talking up how they would've done better. 2 of the biggest wankers on the planet.

I'd almost prefer to listen to Brayshaw and the shit Victorian comedians on Triple M at least they've got Kerry and Brett Lee to nullify the shitness.

I was just waiting for them to have a dig at Steve Waugh Re the follow on and blame Australia's reluctance to enforce follow ons at Waugh's feet after that 2001 loss to India.... Remarkably it didn't eventuate

Nobody enforces the follow on anymore unless ther are playing against minnows like Bangladesh, NZ or the Windies

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Hazelgood getting into the Christmas spirit, giving nothing away like Scrooge.

Yeah it was suprising. The pettiness that they've both shown in regards to Waugh speaks volumes about them personally.
Steve Waugh is about 10 times the human being that either of them are without even trying. Surely anyone with an objective opinion would see this.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Wack. That's a nasty one.

 

[Sphagnum]

Warne already whinging about the run rate. It's the least important stat in this game at the moment but he's banging on about it anyway.

 

[Canard]

Chappelli is mentally unwell!

Claiming the batsmen need to be ready when the bowlers ready???

WTF

 

[El Diablo]

WTF

he's right

they can't just fart arse around and keep the bowler constantly waiting

 

[AlwaysGreen]

WTF is skip a rope?

 

[TheParraboy]

younis the big show khan, reverse sweep perfection..

 

[Canard]

The umpire can warn the batsmen re:slow play.

The bowler can't just decide to set the pace though? Surely?

abc radio anita savage: "Pakistan short time ago are 2/93, chasing 393"

lol

they can take all the time in the world, however fines and suspension applies for slow over rates, the slow (or less) overs in the day the higher the penalty

Wade wants the first slip much closer. In fact directly in front of him would be ideal.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

It's probably an unwritten rule but the batsman should be ready to face up by the time the bowler is at the top of his mark.

Plus a backstop.

And a bucket
