Ed Cowan to get his grind on tomorrow

i believe that the Australia/World XI SCG test in 2005 was a 6 day match IIRC (although it only lasted for 4!

Ed Cowan to get his grind on tomorrow

our hopes hinge on that 1st session tomorrow. cowan/warner survive, we have a chance. SA get 2 quick wickets and its all over. the batsman that worries me is watson. he has to play an innings, none of this 20/20 crap

Pretty much if they get 2 quick ones at any point it's all over.

We need big partnerships almost without fail.

100 runs per wicket. We need to be at least 5/500 when Wade comes in.

As stupid as this sounds, I have more confidence in us chasing THIS than 250...Warner will score runs tomorrow, Huss to hit the winning runs on Day 5.

 

[Mr Angry]

Starc getting 6fa is f**king laughable,

I call bullsyhte! He pitched up, Alma punished, he punished all, Starc pitched up.

Ended with 6 for.

Alma played a great innings, Starc persisted up and I am sure Clarke noticed his instructions being followed, and watched in awe as Amla eat it up.

The man can bat, and bat at the WACA.

Sick of good performance being put down to bad performance, not the case.

Alma would have belted McGrath today.

If only Phillip J Hughes was playing. We'd be celebrating the win by stumps tomorrow.

what happens when (if) we get down to 250 runs required

We would not have got 250 if we were chasing that figure.

 

[Someone]

I think if cowan and warner can get aus to 150+ without a loss of wicket we are in with a real chance. still anyones game.

 

[IanG]

It is Christmas so miracles could happen. But considering the world record is 413 it's unlikely.

 

[TheParraboy]

We would not have got 250 if we were chasing that figure.

yeah 630 world record score is more realistic to get than 250 :sarcasm:

If it was the Jaapies chasing 630 would you give them a show?

Wicket flat, but HUGE difference between Steyn, Philander and Morkel and Starc, Johnson & Hastings...

Never over until it's over, but the fat lady is adjusting her corset and thinking about make-up

this is true

SA should get this

Just that victory will be all the more sweeter if we somehow manage to get there (very unlikely)

 

[TheParraboy]

not to mentionbeing the biggest choke in SA history


oh well we can dream in the moment
