1st Test: Australia v South Africa at Brisbane 9-13 Nov

[Y2Eel]

Out!

 

[Hallatia]

Smith gone. Much prettier batter about to come in. Much prefer to watch Amla bat than Smith

 

[Leagueaddict]

He's GONE!!!

 

[Meth]

Crap call from Bowden.

Great ball and ballsy call for a review from Pattinson

 

[ElectricEelMan]

Get rid of one great batsmen. In comes a better one.

 

[madunit]

exactly as I said, draw Smith to come across the line.

It's the easiest thing any swing bowler can do, can't believe it took them this long to get it right.

Now the harder job, get Amla out. Best approach may be to put them wide of off early, make him reach. If its pitched close to him, he'll get comfy early, quickly and will easily dispatch them

Bowden thinks not making decsions is good umpiring, he's wrong. Not sure how he is still around.

 

[Red Bear]

Great ball by patto, looked plumb, glad they reviewed it

 

[Twizzle]

[El Diablo]

Bowden still proving how much of a joke he is

Yep they finally bowled it perfectly, that started on middle and off and he was plumb.

Pattinson doing the job again.

 

[hineyrulz]

Clipping the top of the bails, once again the crooked arm spastic refuses to give LBW's.

:lol:

 

[Meth]

Let's see some sledging then.

On that topic, I'd wish they'd hurry up and offer a sports ears type commentary option.

 

[madunit]

short to Sth African batsmen imo is a dopey thing to do as most of them are good square of the wicket

 

[ElectricEelMan]

Don't quite understand the Commentators love affair with Siddle this morning, saying he has been the spark etc. I have actually been disappointed with Siddle this morning, he has been a bit too loose so far.

 

[madunit]

Pattinson has been the pick of the bowlers so far, by a long way.

 

[Twizzle]

they have all been ordinary, cant believe they left out Starc

Lyon get a fair bit of turn in his first over

 

[madunit]

some of the field placings have been a bit, weird, almost as if there's only one plan they have per batsmen and they will persevere with it incessantly until it pays off.

Doesn't really give the bowlers any room for error, and our bowlers will struggle to remain that disciplined for a long period.

Thats when the saffers will pounce.
