3rd Test Border Gavaskar Trophy December 14-18 1050hrs @ The Gabba

[Trojan90]

Given hazelwoods injury, we cannot afford to overwork our bowlers and risk another injury. Get the remaining 4 wickets, quickly blast 150 runs and then send them back in tonight.

They've barely bowled 300 overs since March.

When do they return from Lunch?

 

[Pistol Night]

When do they return from Lunch?

Usually just as it starts to rain again

 

[Moonwatcher]

At least Reddy doesn't get to play his natural game.

Usually just as it starts to rain again

ok, what time did they go to lunch?

 

[PhatBoy]

At least Reddy doesn't get to play his natural game.

To be honest he looks tighter when he’s defending than most of his teammates anyway at the moment

 

[Gough]

Cricinfo is deceiving me.

 

[k31th]

ok, what time did they go to lunch?

12:50 to 13:30 AEST

 

[k31th]

12:50 to 13:30 AEST

or was it 12:45-13:25 AEST... either way, they're continuing off the field because it's raining...

 

[badgrill]

unless it rains...

 

[Lunchtime]

Don’t hold your breath .. instead we have Tubby, Vaughan and various other professors of unintended consequences wanting to bring tests back to 4 days..

Taylor was talking about 4 day Test matches 20 odd years ago. It's not a bad idea but as we know, that fifth day can be needed to decide the outcome of a match.

 

[Cudi]

Why wouldn't lunch be only 20 mins when they went off for 25 mins half way through session?
Seems counter productive to take such a long break when they've been off and on so often.

 

[Plugger35]

Lunch ends just in time for another rain delay, it looks like being a long one too.

 

[Coasters7]

Brisbane needs to be scratched

 

[Pistol Night]

Brisbane needs to be scratched

Put a lid on the campaigner like Marvel

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Well, that’s that I reckon. Draw.

 

[JimmyBC]

Jeez those lunches must be good they spend more time eating than playing cricket, I reckon the Bison would be leading a buffet destroyation.

Can’t play any ****n cricket the boys might as well smash plenty of free lunches. I’d be piling a heap of the shit into Tupperware containers to take home

 

[Borisdog]

Yep, we’ve never had a Test Match lost at Marvel due to rain.

Wellington College in Berkshire used to put on a pretty good spread, was one of the highlights playing there

 

[celestial]

We can scratch sydney as well.
Looks like boxing day test is going to be a winner take all match.

Lunch is sacrosanct
