YEWWW! Eat a spotted dick Cook!

 

[Pete Cash]

Pace is certainly pretty useful

 

[some11]

Mr Slave knocks over Cook!

 

[Armageddon.]

Could just tell from that first over Cook wouldn't be sticking around much longer

 

[Horrie Is God]

The Barmy Army have gone a bit quiet..

 

[typicalfan]

The chances of England hitting 400 took a massive nose dive.

 

[some11]

Jeez Cook looked awkward facing up to that.

How fast is England's quickest?

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Two down at stumps would be a fantastic result for us to cap off a day of pure dominance

 

[Sphagnum]

Mitchy poos has got these merkins running scared. They need to fly in some more Vicodin for the remaining batsmen to keep them in the country

 

[tumbidragon]

Aussies swarming over every ball!

4/174 until Clarke and Bailey got it back together. We lost our 8th wicket at over 300 runs later. Being bowled out on day 1 or early day 2 for any score in the 200's would have been a disaster.

'could' have been a disaster no doubt. but it wasnt and in the end our 1 & 3 made solid contributions. 4/174 sounds bad but from memory we had 2 batters (Bailey and Clarke) at the crease on basically no runs. it was just the timing of the wickets. Like i said, Solid Contribution from everyone bar Warner and Smith.

to say our top order failed when warner got 29 and smith (who is 3rd drop/middle order) was bowled for 6 is setting the standards abit too high.

"They've got scared eyes!!"..

Mr Teeny..Gabba test..

 

[tumbidragon]

lol "he won't throw his wicket away"... Then go's on to play a nothing stroke and very nearly does just that...

Thanks to the middle order (bar Smith) and the lower order. Thanks for agreeing with me.

Rogers gets a pass for a great ball, Watson and Warner threw their wickets away and Smith's dismissal was embarrasing.

I can hear the Barmy Army singing "YMCA" in the background

I assume that directed at Mitch Johnson?
