Cricket- the sport not the insect

No, some movement and some very good bowling. No weird bounce. Hussey's was a very bad shot in the circumstances.

What is the wicket like there playing on? Is it a mine field?

I wouldn't say it's that bad, just good bowling. And now Haddin goes playing some moronic shot when he his team is 5/18 and now makes it 6/18. The lowest score is 26...

 

[ramjambunath]

What an awful shot. That's right crap.

26 was by New Zealand against England right?

So was Haddin's.

 

[craig1985]

I've never seen anything like this in my life.

Pretty sure Bangladesh has shown more spine.

So have Afghanistan

 

[Midnightfright]

This is crazy I'm pretty annoyed to have missed it. Well atleast I can console myself with the highlighted after my ride tonight.

 

[craig1985]

Harris goes, make that 7/21.

 

[ramjambunath]

Out 7/21. What a beauty.
5 runs, will they get it?

 

[craig1985]

Shaun Marsh hasn't batted yet due to a back complaint.

 

[craig1985]

Johnson is out, caught at point, 8/21.

 

[ramjambunath]

Potty Party batting this.
8/21.
Marsh in. Looks in pain.

 

[craig1985]

Shaun Marsh goes, 9/21.

 

[craig1985]

Words can't describe this.

 

[ramjambunath]

I cannot believe this. 5 more runs still.5 for Philanderer. South Africa will just have an innings break between their first and second innings.

 

[craig1985]

I would honestly back Zimbabwe do to better.

 

[Midnightfright]

Has anyone played a forward defensive today? Geoffrey Boycott must be fuming

 

[ramjambunath]

They're way better than this. Match to end tonight.

Not much. It isn't a 90 all out and 9/22 pitch. The bowling has been very high quality today. The balls that have taken most wickets have been good enough to get wickets even with forward defensive shots. 21 wickets wouldn't have fallen in one day with more defensive strokes. Lyon and Siddle are.
3 more to get to beat New Zealand.
Beaten NZ. 9/28.

 

[craig1985]

At least Australia won't be bowled out for under 26.

 

[Midnightfright]

I would honestly back Zimbabwe do to better.

I would back the the Durham university 3rds to do better

 

[craig1985]

Siddle is the first Aussie batsman to get into double figures.

 

[ramjambunath]

Not a complete telephone number. Siddle living dangerously but the way the match has gone he's like Bill Ponsford at the moment.

 

[craig1985]

Nathan Lyon out, and Australia is out for 47.

 

[ramjambunath]

All out 47. 236 to win. Wow. How desperately do they need Allan Border/ Steve Waugh.
Worst bit is I have to have dinner and miss the start of Saffers' second innings.
