4th Test: Australia v England at Melbourne Dec 26-30, 2013

[BunniesMan]

England were 116 runs ahead with 10 wickets in hand. They'll probably lose by 9 wickets. Once of the great acts of self destruction Test cricket has seen in a long time.

 

[8Ball]

Wonder why Panesar isn't bowling at one end on this dustbowl.

 

[Canard]

The Sky is Fallin brigade seem strangely silent today.....

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

In fact by saying I don't trust the tail now Australia knows just to spread the field and wait for the catches when KP bats with the tail because he won't look for singles.

KP is not exactly a genius either.

KP is already a tried and failed captain that quit the post. He's the man says BunniesMan :lol:

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

If someone would have told me, 6 months ago that Chris Rogers, Nathan Lyon and Mitchell Johnson would dominate England at the MCG to put us 4 nil up in the Ashes... I'd have had that person locked away in an institution for life. I can't believe what we are witnessing here.

 

[Timbo]

And not for Pietersen. Or did statsguru not tell you about the unmitigated disaster that was Kevin Pietersen as English captain?

 

[Canard]

Haha even Vaughn has a hard on for the "Big Show"

 

[BunniesMan]

Why has the field been pushed back? Why on earth would you be defensive at this stage?

 

[Pete Cash]

Great knock Rogers bad luck mate.

 

[Timbo]

Unlucky Bucky.

If only Monty has bowled earlier?

 

[BunniesMan]

So Bairstow takes the hardest chance he's had all day.

 

[8Ball]

Unlucky for Rogers. That one turned square.

 

[RHCP]

No surprise to see a ball turn that much here at Mumbai.

 

[Joely01]

Haha to late for Monty!

 

[no name]

Monty should be blowing up at Cook.

 

[BunniesMan]

I desperately hope Nicholas or whoever it is asks Cook why he'd bowl Root ahead of Panesar.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

It's a shame that Rogers wasn't not out at the end of the day, great knock from him. I don't think he would be as under fire as he has been if was 5 years younger, we don't exactly have anyone breathing down his neck deserving his spot besides a tried and failed option.

 

[jargan83]

Well batted Rogers

Deserved to be there at the end but not to be

 

[JW]

No surprise to see a ball turn that much here at Mumbai.

Imagine if this game went into day 5? Those foot marks are wearing badly. Plenty for Montgomery to work with.

 

[Timbo]

Wouldn't that be just fantastic though?

5-0, breaking Trott, Prior and Swann and then Cook getting sacked?

Short of a meteor hitting Pietersen that would be perfect.
