KFC Twenty20 International Game 1: Australia v England @ Adelaide (Wed)

[apollo_creed]

Blocker "Al Bundy" Wilson is the umpire.

Man of the Match tonight gets a trip to the local nudie bar with Blocker "Al Bundy" Wilson and he shows them the $20 on a string trick.

Going by the bowling and fielding the women's team has been practicing with the men.

 

[mattymac]

Marginally better? 6.5 is significantly better than 7.5!

meh, 4 runs a match. doesn't bother me too much especially with an awesome strike rate and average. wickets are god in t20

 

[Tazwegian]

Will the weather hold out?

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

I know quite a few people who decided not to go because of the RIDICULOUS ****ING PRICE.

$39 is the cheapest general admission for a game that can be an absolute stinker if the side batting first has a mare. ****ing greedy.

I could understand $5 or so dearer than the Big Bash but I wouldn't attend the game on principle because $39 is a rip off for a 40 over game of cricket.

And then they have the audacity to (seemingly) not stream the game live into Adelaide?

**** you Cricket Australia you ****ing *****.

Thats why I didnt go, wanted to take my wife to the game, but didnt want to sit in gen ad, and when I saw the prices I just couldnt justify it. Pity, because it will probably be a great game.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

word from channel 9 (according to 5AA) is there is good news regarding coverage in Adelaide tonight (but it hasn't been officially announced, yet...)

hot diggity

 

[Jolldo87]

Cam White won the toss and Australia will bat first.

 

[Jolldo87]

Pattinson left out for the Aussies.

Lumb, Trott, Tredwell, Finn and Tremlett out for the poms.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

Dont say this often but thankyou channel 9

Anyone know of coverage into Queensland, was hoping to watch a biot of cricket to take my mind off things, but appears it is not on for 4 hours delayed??

 

[OzBomber]

Yeah umm, Nico looks shocking with the Botox or whatever he did to his face.

 

[HSSB]

Love how 9 decide to broadcast the cricket live in Adelaide now, not wasting that much money on what could be a shit game.

Got to hold off a CoD sesh though haha

Switch over to GEM mate.

 

[aussie1st]

Would have preferred Paine at opener as that is his best position. Watson would be the ideal 3.

 

[Crows4Flag]

Was thinking the same, actually very surprised they televised it

Should be live on Gem HD for you guys...

 

[Kahuna]

Stream me

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

WHY do the commentators feel the need to talk louder and faster just because it's T20. They do it every year and every year it shits me off no end. Just talk normally you ****wits. Healy is the worst.

 

[ROSEMVP]

[Crows4Flag]
