3rd ASHES TEST: Australia v England at Perth, Dec 16-20 2010

[hineyrulz]

ffs Clarke!!!! if only he attacked like that in a 20/20 game :crazy:

 

[Adsy]

Sh*t. Clarke was looking good too.

 

[beads6]

Bloody hell Aussies can't take a trick ffs. Clarke looking good chops on....

 

[Collingwood Storm]

ffs Ponting and Clarke both need to go... bloody hard to smash yourself out of a form slump

selectors can't blame the bowlers this time around

 

[Adsy]

Huss, we need another big one from ya.

yeah lets bring in Dussey and Hodge as there replacements.... :crazy::crazy:

 

[TheParraboy]

Our in form batsmen are at the wicket, plus got Haddin and Notch to follow. Also Smith could do well here. We should post a big total still

 

[Big_Bad_Shark_Fan]

I love how the commentators go on (in this 2nd innings and adelaide 2nd innings) how Clarke needs to be positive and how thats why he has looked better in those 2 innings.

Its the fact he was too positive and too aggressive that got him out in both adelaide and perth 1st innings.

Clarke should be in teh side but hes the ideal number 6, not number 4. Not someone i want batting for my country when we are 2/20 with a new rock vs a decent attack.

 

[Ladmate]

Yeah its pretty useless, if both objects have similar temp then you wont see sh*t.

Snicko is much better

Brain lapse, I forgot what Snicko is. Can someone tell me?

 

[IFR33K]

What's the score and what is the lead

I think everyone wants to see Ponting do well. Hes a delight to watch but I just dont know how long you can keep referring to the magic he did 3 years ago.

Id like to see him move down the order, as I still think he is one of the better bats in the country, if not the best. Id just like to see him against the older ball. Problem is we know he wont do that, and the other problem is like any position theres no real man in state cricket who deserves to be there and is thumping that door down

 

[abpanther]

Watson gets to 50, how long will he last now?

 

[Ridders]

What's the score and what is the lead

Aus 3/112. Lead of 193

 

[abpanther]

Watson is looking really good out there, shame stumps is so close, I think he could go on to triple figures in this form

 

[TheParraboy]

Poms bowled poorly, plus they look flat as well

I can see Sunshine getting on with it tomorrow, and Mr Cricket will want to keep up his series 100 average up as well

3/119 Stumps day 2 - lead 200


Hopefully, all fingers crossed we can be around 7/419 at stumps after day 3 and lead by 500 . Then throw the bat Day 4 morning for 15-20 mins.

 

[Big Pete]

Worse thing that seems to happen to Watson is the break, how many times has he gotten out just after drinks, lunch or tea?

 

[Parra Guru]

Can someone explain how that Ponting decision was over turned?

I'm sure I saw a similar one go against Australia when they referred. To me that didn't show enough to over rule the ump's decision if they are going to be consistant.

Yeah a bit weird, there is a case that it looked like it may have flicked the gloves ever so slightly, but your right about it not being consistant

Hopefully it wont matter, and we still end up winning

 

[chefman21]

oh ffs

the burnt toast twig is back

go back and learn about percentages

A twig hey? Your depth of character astounds me. Here's a percentage for you. Johnson took 60% of the wickets today. How do you like those percentages...
