*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

[Jarquis]

Laptop is beeping. About to die. FML.

 

[GIMH]

Come on, I need to go to sleep, get these clowns out

 

[TumTum]

I've seen one go straight through the stumps.

 

[morgieb]

Good block Doherty.

 

[Furball]

Siddle you jammy ****

Btw, with regards to the North dismissal, anyone see any reason why the umpire can't radio up to the 3rd umpire and ask him to double check what the ball hits first - bat or pad?

 

[Mike5181]

Wow I haven't seen that in a long time,hitting the stumps but bails don't come off.

Siddle is one lucky fella

 

[howardj]

Holy smokes, they're storming the fortress.

Get down, and take cover.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Yeessssss get in.

This Swann cat won't take wickets in Australia you know.

I don't think it's a shock he's taking wickets in Adelaide on day 4 and 5...but carry on

 

[Flem274*]

Can't believe England are doing this.

 

[Pizzorno]

I can sense an Oval 2004 Champions Trophy final situation here

 

[zaremba]

This Siddle bastard can bat a bit

 

[robelinda]

Wow. Just wow. Heads have to roll, but dunno who comes in to be honest, England have played like true champions, all credit. Scored 5/10000000 and bowled us out for nothing twice, our side isnt crap either, but we are being made to play like crap alright.

Watching Swann hit the pads like that and being able to review it makes me think of how many LBWs Warne would have had with his slider.

 

[Tom 1972]

egad. the most comprehensive test match loss I can remember in such a long time.

innings defeat. they were only 5fer. bowling with a man down for much of the 2nd dig.

 

[Furball]

Wow I haven't seen that in a long time,hitting the stumps but bails don't come off.

Happened in 2005, Brett Lee was the bowler and I can remember him running up to the stumps and lifting off the bails to make sure they weren't glued on. Can't remember who got lucky, reckon it might have been Flintoff.

 

[howardj]

Who cares who comes in.

keep picking the same guys, keep getting the same results.

 

[hazsa19]

The aussie media may have something to say about Siddles smiles

 

[Jacknife]

Oh yes,forgot about that.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Watching Swann hit the pads like that and being able to review it makes me think of how many LBWs Warne would have had with his slider.

Yeah, I thought of that yesterday too when someone mentioned Warne as being one of the bowlers who 'over-appealed'. Think there was a good reason for it at times.

 

[GIMH]

No attempt from Nasser to hide his joy. 'Brilliant collapse'
