[Mr Angry]

Damn Hadds.

 

[hineyrulz]

Not sure whats worse the pitch or the side selected???

Sigh now Haddin doesn't even get a hand on one.

 

[Timbo]

Dear oh dear, I'm Hadds biggest fan but that was awful.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Give Show the gloves.

 

[hineyrulz]

What do they expect from Starc when he hasn't played a first class game in 14 months???

Talk about a roll of the dice, grossly unfair on him as well.

 

[BunniesMan]

Shehzad carving up Starc. dear oh dear.

Was thinking the same thing lol. Although O'Keefe isn't a big turner of the ball, I still would have gone for him over Starc.

 

[African Monkey]

Just let it breathe Michael.......

 

[AlwaysGreen]

1/57 as Leo the Lyon strikes like a tiger. We got dis now.

 

[Red Bear]

Haddin streets ahead...

Sounds like lyon is going well which is good.

Haddin had his 'purple patch'. Get Whiteman in for the 1st test against India please though. I just have zero faith in Haddin being that good against England in England.

 

[Twizzle]

I cant believe these selections.

SOK clearly our best spinner and he gets dropped. Siddle was useless and gets retained.

Doolan just made a ton in the lead up game and got run out in the first test.

The big show has no defensive technique for test cricket yet he gets a call up.

It just makes no sense to me.

what has your faith got to do with anything, he is far and away our best keeper atm

Lol. The guy has barely missed a chance within reach in the last 18 months.

 

[8Ball]

First time I've seen a straight hit fielder for a long long time.

Whiteman is just as good with the gloves!

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Lunch. Pakistan 1/82.

Pakistan's session although a quick wicket or two after lunch swings it back.

 

[Jason Maher]

Wonderful over rate.

 

[Twizzle]

pretty slow run rate

 

[Jason Maher]

3.28 is decent. Only managing to bowl 25 overs in two hours while employing a spinner... not so decent.
