3rd Test: Australia v England at Perth Dec 13-17, 2013

I don't understand how Bresnan keeps finding his way back in the side, he's an average bowler at best.
Panesar unlucky he was better than Swann.

Good first innings total? Games tend to move along a bit quicker in Perth, so if we're batting into lunch tomorrow with the value for shots the WACA gives, England should be close to f**ked.

A stubby each time Watson plays a drive straight to a fielder

Hospitalised by the 15th over.

 

[Horrie Is God]

The only time the poms have beaten us at the WACA was when we fielded a C team during the WSC brouhaha..

500 should be the target.

Under 400 would be a failure.

I think he is like Siddle
Not many people rate him, but tends to get a few wickets each innings - usually important ones

 

[Twizzle]

we would have been better off losing that toss I reckon

 

[madunit]

I'm inclined to feel the same Twiz. The batsmen will have to keep their concentration more than any other test.

The ball will bounce more and come onto the bat more quickly.

 

[madunit]

double

Gonna be a long day for those poms, they will be frying in the heat.

 

[TheParraboy]

Must be hot in that fur coat? Kangaroo?

I was thinking the same thing.

KP singing god save the queen is pretty lolworthy

 

[TheParraboy]

uninspirational

Doubt very much Alaistar would send himself out on a green top, lol

 

[The Charlatan]

That deck is tempting, I would have rolled the arm over, one or two quick wickets would completely annihilate any confidence the poms had left.

 

[Pete Cash]

Batting is the right move just got to bat with some brains in the first session. Good value for shots..

 

[JW]

Nice pace and carry. Good arm breaking surface for the proper quicks.
