2nd Test - Australia v New Zealand Hobart Dec 9 - Dec 13 2011

if Aus scrape home how costly was the decision not to review Hughes when he was on 0

Good point.

These two look comfortable it must be said.

 

[Twizzle]

another DRS

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

This looks plumb live

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Another review! Could be over, could be another heart attack for Smithy.

I'm picking Umpire's call on this one.

 

[hineyrulz]

Long live test cricket, look what a wicket with a bit in it can do.

 

[Hallatia]

safe, game goes on

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Or not

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

And we continue on. lol.

 

[Twizzle]

not out, lol

 

[El Diablo]

and those merkins India refuse to use DRS

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

This is intense

 

[Bazal]

I'm actually enjoying the tension that DRS adds to this, tbh :lol:

 

[African Monkey]

F**k lol. Maybe it wasn't meant to be for us.

 

[Twizzle]

16 to go

 

[Tommy Smith]

f**king lol

I turn it over for 2 hours when they're two down and then back on to see this. I really can't believe just how far Australia have fallen.

Perhaps their worst batting line-up ever. The only one id feed is Warner. Clarke might get a snack, thats about it...

 

[Hallatia]

wow, a break

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Wow that was close.

Time for a bowling chage. I'd actually bring back Boult. I think the awkward angle to Lyon could be the trick if he can land it right.

 

[Twizzle]

f**k the drinks

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Long live test cricket, look what a wicket with a bit in it can do.

Ohh the pitch isn't fit for test cricket

Best test in Australia for a long time.

I think it was Tubby who said the roads that produce 500 run innings come down to players get tired and mistakes creep in but this is genuine test cricket. Spoiled cricketers are getting a lesson in what test cricket is all about and it shouldn't be win the toss bat first and not lose.

for Aust, is winning a good thing??? Lineup bar Hughes will likely stay same
