*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

How to fix English batting

 

[Hooksey]

Another big winning margin coming up here, and good to see Siddle sharing in the spoils.

 

[Spark]

Hahahaha I swore he'd dropped that

 

[Nate]

Heyooooooooooo

 

[Jono]

stop getting caught legside you dumb ****s

 

[Cabinet96]

Australia to not bother with fielders in front of square or on the off side for Perth.

 

[ajdude]

Cardiff 09 redux

 

[91Jmay]

Again utterly abject test. Clearly this era of a pretty good England team is largely over. Just hope we can stop the rot and only go down 3-1 or something.

 

[Jono]

Boycott not a fan of the hook and pull.

 

[benchmark00]

Takes a lot of character getting out wafting at balls and pulling balls to deep fielders on a final day when you're trying to save a match with rain about.

 

[Cabinet96]

Monty will play a nice clip of the hip, then get overconfident and get caught out hooking.

 

[NUFAN]

Aren't you a bit concerned by Siddle's length this test match (no homo)?

Not concerned at all. Such an adaptable bowler who is now level with Tony Lock. One more wicket and Siddle is inside the top 75.

 

[wiff]

Panasar to survive like he did in Cardiff

 

[centurymaker]

Stupid tactics from England, Aussie bowlers are going to be pretty fresh going into the next test now.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Drop the slips, stick in half a dozen deep backward square legs (I know you can't but...)

 

[benchmark00]

Solid troll:

98.6
Siddle to Panesar, no run, short ball and PANESAR HOOKS TO DEEP SQUARE!! No just joking, that would be the final straw for humanity if he was that silly. He ducks
98.5
Siddle to Prior, OUT, short and hooked again and, well, well, well can you Adam and Eve it, picks out deep-backward square leg. England, deary me. Harris the catcher this time. There's no point describing the wicket because you know the drill by now surely

 

[Top_Cat]

England bats thoroughly sucked in by the Richardson Effect, one feels.

 

[Cabinet96]

Takes a lot of character getting out wafting at balls and pulling balls to deep fielders on a final day when you're trying to save a match with rain about.

Wonder what the most number of dismissals caught on the rope is in a test match loss.

So good from Cricinfo guy just then
