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

[Achy Blakey Heart]

Webster bowling reminds me a bit of Watto with the slow medium's that shape

Nah mate your off there

 

[Topkent]

It was a glorious time

How good was it in the mid 2000s when you had Hayden at Gully, Ponting at point, Symonds and Clarke in the covers or mid off etc. Every quick single was a potential death.

 

[Plugger35]

Pant playing a courageous knock.

1999 World Cup Tom Moody, or early 90s test player Tom Moody?

WA Tom Moody, he was a star all rounder for WA but wasn't that great for Australia.

He used to be an owner of The Wembley pub which is my local, you always knew when he was there, stuck out like a sore thumb.

 

[Achy Blakey Heart]

GET ON WITH IT

I trust you have never been hit in the box by someone bowling 120+ clicks. I can tell you from experience....you stay down!

 

[t_94]

****ing painful commentary on fox right now repeating themselves about India’s cautious approach.

 

[Mofra]

The carry on from this bloke

140+ clicks into the goolies hurts a lot

 

[Bucking Beads]

Pant will be pissing blood at this rate.

 

[fuic08]

Watto was pushing 140 clicks at his peak. Not even in the same planet of bowlers.

I thought he bowled pretty slow later in his career?

 

[Achy Blakey Heart]

I'd be bringing the field up here for Pant. He is clearly batting conservatively following a spray post Boxing day, so bring the field up and try to make the 'dogs mouth water.'

 

[Mofra]

I thought he bowled pretty slow later in his career?

Had to. His body couldn't hold up otherwise.

Opens up his shots. Then aim for the body.

 

[Visions]

India cant say they haven’t had luck today.

Dropped catches, numerous balls missing the outside edge.

Talking Pujara. Now there was a batter

Many times.
Once had my sack stuck to my box because of a blood stain that dried up.
Was more referring to the slow pace of the game.

Yeah his slow bowling is what this reminds me of, past prime watto

 

[Topkent]

Watson was such an almost superstar. Never been another bloke in history look so glorious getting to 35 then getting out LBW.

 

[dogs105]

Pant playing a courageous knock.



WA Tom Moody, he was a star all rounder for WA but wasn't that great for Australia.

He used to be an owner of The Wembley pub which is my local, you always knew when he was there, stuck out like a sore thumb.

I loved Long Tom. Should have played more tests.

Bastard made 2 150s against us in a shield final too

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Give Marnus a bowl for the lols

 

[Bucking Beads]

I doubt he was ever under 130's consistently

And don’t forget reviewing

I used to be the guitar/singer guy on Thursday nights and Sunday afternoons at The Wembley in the early 90s…I remember some extended staff lock-ins at that place

Edit: wasn’t former WCE Peter Wilson one of the owners too?

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Bastard made 2 150s against us in a shield final too

He was a beautiful stroke player.

Could hit a long ball too.

7 has Langer just being Langer.

 

[BGman]

That is because under Taylor and S Waugh we used to practice catching ruthlessly. Both were heavily influenced by Bob Simpson and supported by Marsh and Buchanan.

No other captain-coach combo has done the same.

Our fielding hit another level under American Mike Young in the 2000s.

Many times? Technique issue?
