5th Test Border Gavaskar Trophy January 3-7 1000hrs @ the SCG

[Pistol Night]

"Time to get the slug in" will be our national catch cry going forward

 

[peternorth]

Apparently he has a basketball background like all good Pies legends

Imagine he's 19 years of age as well!!

 

[tugga]

Brett Lee’s commentary is so biased.

 

[Achy Blakey Heart]

Great start by Webster. Solid technique. No obvious flaws.

 

[Plugger35]

Surely they can't keep Krishna on, he has released the pressure, at one end at least, still plenty of pressure at Bumrah's end.

 

[10Dulkar]

Not saying 50 runs per wicket is any good as a bowler but Akash Deep bowled far better than his figures suggest.

 

[outabounds]

Webster looking as good as anyone for the entire test.

Smith now halfway to his required target to reach 10,000.

5000?

 

[Topkent]

He had a bowling average of 20 that series. Bumrah averages 17 against Australia full stop.

Lol. One got a brand new ball every time they bowled the other was a leg spinner bowling in England

Warne was also 35 with a completely ****ed shoulder

 

[Magma]

well hopefully thats reddy's best ball of his spell

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Double Quiney.

He is used to bowler friendly wickets playing at Bellrieve

 

[Black Diamond]

Strange to have a deep square at this stage for either batsman.

 

[Pistol Night]

What you talking bout Willis !

Websters Dictionary? I heard thats a thing. As a Pies supporter we use them to put cars up on blocks though

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Hare Krishna has released the pressure a bit.

 

[Shaunbkk]

He seemed to have very significantly worn down by the end of the last test. We'd see how he was going better if we could stop collapsing our innings in the first session every time.

Like no other fast bowler (Steyn, Willis, Lillee, Hughes, Hadlee etc) etc never had to bowl often and plenty of overs. Bumrah is a multi multi +++ millionaire, a grown professional athlete running on grass throwing a ball, ffs. enough with this oh they must be tired dribble from so many I'd run up my own ass and back all year for a quarter of his paycheck

 

[reubski23]

Never looked comfortable at test level and there was a long list of middle order bats competing for spots

Plus we didn’t have an obsession about an all rounder in tests at that point just in ODIs

ODIs was Shane Lee, BJ, Moody, Ian Harvey, Symonds then Watto

 

[ptrg]

Lee banging on about it being hot - it's a max of 29c today..

 

[dumb]

pressure off with reddy bowling

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

5000?

He needed 38 at the start of the innings to reach 10,000, and is now on 19.

 

[Gak Attack]

According to Kerry O'Keefe this is a message to Shield players that if you perform you'll get picked. Bancroft's headache from last night just got worse

If you're doing it for three years and after they've tried a bunch of blokes on potential first.

 

[dogs105]

He needed 38 at the start of the innings to reach 10,000, and is now on 19.

Yeah, but I can't make a joke about that

 

[Pistol Night]

Lol. One got a brand new ball every time they bowled the other was a leg spinner bowling in England

Warne was also 35 with a completely ****ed shoulder

And crippling shaggers back

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

Strange to have a deep square at this stage for either batsman.

I guess it means there may be odd short one, or they want to put that thought in the mind. But without a short catcher as well to make the fend dangerous to play, seems pointless.

 

[Pistol Night]

Yeah, but I can't make a joke about that

If Smithy makes 5000 we should be able to save this one
