That bounced in smiths puddle of spit.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

There's a couple of Irish blokes opposite me at the pub

Like proper Irish

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Did it recently to and from Adelaide, prefer it to the Hume to be honest!

I've never driven the Hume.

The Western and Dukes highways is a pretty easy drive, but it's dull as dishwasher (just dry shrubs through the Wimmera). Going via the Great Ocean Road adds a bit more time, but it's ultimately worth it.

 

[ams4crows]

I know that's how he got out in the 1st innings but FFS get off leg stump, top of off, please

The Hume is even duller. At least on the Western Hwy you have to keep your eyes on the potholes

Last time I did the Hume you at least saw a submarine

 

[Cmarsh]

There's nowhere near 50k there.

 

[k31th]

at least we're talking about real highways and not calling the pitch a road

 

[windyhill]

Slips appeal, Starc laughs.

Salman Butt
Chris Gayle
Marlon Samuels
Kevin Pietersen
Arjuna Ranatunga (c)
Ben Stokes (vc)
Jonny Bairstow (wk)
Stuart Broad
Harbhajan Singh
Shoaib Akhtar
Mohammed Asif

12th Man: Sreesanth

Coach: Brendon McCullum

I assume this is an all time campaigner XI? Where is my man André Nel?
Akhtar was good value imo, not sure what he's doing there. Also Graeme Smith has to open and Brad Haddin keep wicket

 

[hawkman]

35k in the ground, 15k out the back drinking

 

[sabso]

Rana not up to test level .
They'll have to make a change there .

Rana seems to be a project player, they'll presumably hope he develops into a quality bowler in a couple of years. Alternatively they could drop him and that'll be it.

India have too much fast bowling talent to give Rana 100 Tests to prove himself like they did with I'mshit Sharma.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Jaiswal is on. Lucky we got him first ball in the 1st innings.

If you’re in a hurry, SA is a drivers drive.
To Sydney is like snorting chloroform!

 

[Great8]

Starc’s pie shop is open for business

 

[dumb]

Boland on if Starc won't make use of the swing

 

[TigerCraig]

Slips appeal, Starc laughs.

Marnus asking about review

 

[Plugger35]

Webster is on the field.

Can they sneak him on to bowl?

 

[Moonwatcher]

There's nowhere near 50k there.

Creative accounting. 50k is no spare seat in the AFL.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Starc is bowling shit. Boland please.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Starc is bowling shit. Boland please.

They won't take him off after 6 first innings wickets.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Love that shot of the cathedral with the bats flying past. Just needed to be a cold winter's night to give it a real gothic feel.

That's the image Adelaide is going for

 

[chriso11]

India doing it easy so far…

 

[Hawksboy72]

Craig McDermott and Merv Hughes should be in that conversation, not to mention Terry Alderman and Carl Rackemann.

No love for Chris Matthews??
