3rd Test: Australia v South Africa at Adelaide on Nov 24-28, 2016

[The Charlatan]

I don't get the Clarke hate as a commentator. He's not the best around and his delivery/tone are wrong IMO, but seriously he's comfortably better than Chappell, Warne, Slater, Healy, KP at least.

I agree. He just has an annoying voice. He's like Slater but he actually f**king talks cricket.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Lol Wade.

Byyeeesssssss

 

[Bazal]

Haha Wade

 

[Tommy Smith]

He misjudged the epic 'spin' of the GOAT.

 

[aussies1st]

There is the Wade we know

 

[8Ball]

Lyon must be glad that Wade is back

 

[Bgoodorgoodatit]

Ha-ha, we thought the GOAT was having trouble getting wickets with an actual keeper behind the stumps... Now he has Wade

 

[Bgoodorgoodatit]

We're f**ked anyway, Saffas have hit 80

 

[BestHookerFarrah]

Lyon is looking good, decent rip on the ball, good shape through the air.

 

[Bazal]

Good session. Would have been nice if Starc hadn't overstepped, but we'd have obviously taaken 3/90 if it was offered before play

 

[Brutus]

STFU Wade you loud-mouthed dumbarse Tassie Victorian.

 

[BestHookerFarrah]

STFU Wade you loud-mouthed dumbarse Tassie Victorian.

Oh no a chirpie keeper.

Should the side just be silent and unmotivated?

 

[hineyrulz]

Gee Bird looked deadset ordinary.

He's got a good record but I really don't rate him that highly, they really should be looking to draft Tremain into the squad somewhere. Rate him highly.

 

[hineyrulz]

Oh no a chirpie keeper.

Should the side just be silent and unmotivated?

Being coordinated and not having stumps for hands would be even better.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Oh no a chirpie keeper.

Should the side just be silent and unmotivated?

Yep. Yelling out "lets go boys" or "good bowling Hazo/Starcy/Birdy/lyono" every ball is very motivating.

 

[Meapro Ham]

Clarke just invented a word. Accolations. He meant accolades.

That upward inflection he puts on every sentence is very annoying. Needs some voice training.

 

[hineyrulz]

Big wicket!!!

Starc and Haze will have to get all of these.

 

[Bazal]

Got Cook that time....cost us 35 runs, but they were hardly 35 hurtful runs.

Why is Cook in their side, legit? He just seems pedestrian to me

 

[Meapro Ham]

I can see the Aussies having to bat for an hour or so under lights tonight and being about 8/26 at stumps

 

[Eelectrica]

Good start tempered by the knowledge that we have to bat on this next, probably in the evening. Fun times ahead.
Don't envy the debutants facing the inform SA attack on this pitch.
