Cricket Discussion - Part 3

[Ford Fairlane]

We lead! Lehmann and Carey on the attack.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

And Carey attacks no more

 

[Greasyrhys]

Carey threw his wicket away there, Boof jr needs a big score with help.

 

[JimmyBC]

Jeezus why would you play at that

 

[Rising Power]

63 run lead. Unless we get to 100 overs Qld will get a point too, but apparently home team takes the advantage in the event of a draw, if on the same points. Just need to bat on, a 100 lead would be a big help if Khawaja decides to pull another double out.

 

[Grave Danger]

Cricket umpire banished after high-profile controversies

The sport’s governing body has taken action, with the Australian summer proving fatal to his career.

Obviously the Indians were not pleased with Wilson's performance. Australia could have complained all we liked to no avail but one hint of angst on the part of India and the ICC leap into action.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

SA has passed 200. So we have the bonus point lead. Not that it looks like it will matter.

7/201 Lehmann 68no

 

[JimmyBC]

300 would be nice, Lehmann doing his old man proud.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Lehmann 100*

SA 9/269. Lead by 174 on a wicket that is still responsive.

 

[Rising Power]

Hopefully Qld can hold the SA bowlers out til tea, I want to get down there to see us claim the shield

 

[philreich]

Lehmann has a first innings lead of 7 .

 

[Rising Power]

Shit I hope this lead holds us in good stead. Would be nice to have them 3 or 4 down by stumps.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

SA all out for 271, lead by 176

 

[Papa G]

Queensland paying $6.50 for the win. Not the silliest bet you could make....

 

[philreich]

No cause for concern just yet, but we'd want to pick up a few wickets soon. I'd hate to be chasing too many to try and win the Shield!!!

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Uzzie gone. 1/53

 

[Greasyrhys]

Only one wicket that session, nice if we can pick up at least 3-4 more by stumps.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Need to get loose bus change out or we could face a tricky total.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Pitch has flattened, can see the bulls posting at least 300.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Couple of late break through’s helping. Need 2 or 3 in the first session tomorrow.

 

[raptalia]

Yes, the Redbacks need some quick wickets. Labuschagne and Khawaja back in the shed helps but there is still a way to go.

 

[Rising Power]

2 more wickets taken this morning, 5 for with a lead of 16. This match will finish TODAY. And I'm stuck at work fmd.

 

[philreich]

Doggett has 10 for the match. As good as Lehmann's ton was, surely Doggett is MOTM.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Hope the match doesn’t finish before 4:20pm
