I always half expect Chappelli to start talking about wearing onions on his belt...

Hazelwood is a good un

Oh excellent Warne is here

 

[Bazal]

Big wicket, Elgar gone

Elgar gone

Warne is a Wade fan, really who would have known?

 

[The Charlatan]

Hilarious, ABC radio bagging the shit out of Khawaja in the slips cordon, goes on to swallow one.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Gone. Thank god the edge went to third slip.

 

[Meth]

We've been starting tests well since Sri Lanka, we just can't finish them off while we've gottem down

Now would be a nice time to start showing some ruthlessness

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Well taken Wadey

Hate to keep harping on with cricket stories, but I'd be interested in people's thoughts on the following....

We're defending a modest total one day and coming in to the last over, the opposition need 3 or 4 runs, plenty of wickets in the shed... but anyway, first or 2nd ball of the over, batsmen pushed one towards point and they take off for a quick single... our fielder picks it up and throws at the non-strikers end, and the ball hits right on the edge of the concrete slab that the synthetic pitch is laid on and bounces back over towards a gap between cover/mid off, and the batsmen then go and take a 2nd run.... We were livid, telling them it was very un-sportsmanlike. They shrugged it off and duly won the game a couple of balls later... Wouldn't have changed the result (more than likely) but I thougth it was pretty low tbh

Don't really understand why. Can't recall him dropping catches. It's his ground fielding that has always let him down.

Zero byes and dropped catches by Wade

So far

No issues with that tbh. It's harsh but it's really no different to the ball taking a bad bounce on the infield for example.

Dropped that ball couple overs back.

Wadey sets the tone, too bad he's tone deaf.
