[infamous9383]

What has Tait's top speed been?

nothing special 92-93mph

 

[Sean]

What has Tait's top speed been?

Pretty sure it is 150.9kph

 

[Easa]

Tait bowled one close to 151 KPH, Uzzy..

 

[Sean]

Gilly couldn't stop that. It was very high and called a wide.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Four!

 

[Sean]

What a cracker! Shot of the day. Full and wide and he bludgeons it to the boundary.

 

[infamous9383]

come on Irish would you collapase already. Stop delaying the invetiables

 

[Oxy]

I hoppe the cameramen have brought their wives/girlfriends with them - desperados!

 

[Sean]

A bit of drizzle now.

 

[Sean]

Roy is now in to the attack.

 

[12thMan]

Aus has been disappointing. After the start they got I predicted 59 all out and IRL is on 72-7 and 20 overs have gone. Someone needs to be dropped. I don't care who it is.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

McCallan GONE!, 72/8

 

[Sean]

Roy gets a wicket in his first over. He scoops it up and Tait takes an easy catch.
McCallan goes for 5.
8/72

[Sean]

A2 is now in.

 

[12thMan]

Symonds, Tait or Ponting must have recieved the text message or seen it on the big screen.
IRL 72-8 after 21 overs

 

[infamous9383]

my prediction of 80 looking good

 

[Sean]

Symonds, Tait or Ponting must have recieved the text message or seen it on the big screen.
IRL 72-8 after 21 overs

Let's see you and your mates go out there and take 8/72 against and international team.

 

[infamous9383]

Irish Eyes Arent Smiling Today

 

[Sean]

Edged through 3rd slip for four.
8/80.

 

[Rob H]

oh dear. At least the game will be over by the time i eat tonight.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Ponting nabs one at silly point.

 

[Sean]

There we go. The easiest of the wickets today. Alot of bounce from Hogg and A2 (Langford-Smith) pops it up to Ponting and silly point. He goes for 2.
9/80.

 

[12thMan]

anotehr one out
80-9 after 23

 

[infamous9383]

come on one more wickets without runs and my prediction will be spot on

 

[Oxy]

Not many captains would place themselves fielding up close like that

 

[infamous9383]

lbw shout turned down

 

[Sean]

Well well. Plumb. Absolutely plumb.

 

[Oxy]

Well well. Plumb. Absolutely plumb.

Barely clipping leg is not plumb. YOu cannot expect ANY umpire to give those

 

[infamous9383]

Well well. Plumb. Absolutely plumb.

Ok mark nicholas

 

[Sean]

Barely clipping leg is not plumb. YOu cannot expect ANY umpire to give those

It looked plumb at first.

 

[Sean]

OUCH! Hit right in the head. That would've hurt.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Missed run out chance

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Another missed run out chance.

 

[Sean]

Can't we just get this last wicket and have a bat?

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Irish giving up runs now, they have a plan

 

[Sean]

Cmon! Jeez.

 

[Sean]

Gilly really thought that was out. I think he might be in a bit of trouble for charging the umpire.
I reckon it hit the glove.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Run out, all over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ThaSiccSense]

91 all out 30 overs

 

[Sean]

That's out. Great throw there. Mooney out for a well played 21. Tait gets the run out.
Ireland all out for 91. A supreme bowling effort by Australia but they should've been out for 60+.
I'll get to sleep this morning.

McGrath took 3/17
Tait took 3/39

 

[infamous9383]

dang the last wicket took long

 

[Sean]

Gilly and Hussey to open. GO GILLY!

 

[Sean]

Wide first ball.

 

[Sean]

Well fielded then. Gilly gets 3 runs. I feel that Hussey will fail again today.

 

[Sean]

Great save next ball. Excellent dive that stops four.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

6/0

 

[Sean]

9 runs from the first over.

 

[infamous9383]

hussey's opening??? thats a surprise

 

[Sean]

Great call from Gilly. Would have been an easy run out.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

hussey's opening??? thats a surprise

Probably giving him a chance to get inform.

 

[Sean]

Where is Cozier originally from? He is white. Most West Indians aren't(Not being racist).

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Was born in Barbados, his dad worked there

 

[Sean]

Wow. My heart nearly came out of me as Gilly nearly chops it onto his stumps.

 

[Sean]

What brilliant fielding once again from Ireland. This time it is Rankin stopping that.

 

[Sean]

BANG! Cover drive through the covers for four. 4 more to Gilly's total.

 

[Sean]

BANG! Back to back fours to Gilly! That one was much wider and Gilly had to reach for that. 4 more!

 

[Sean]

BANG BANG BANG! GILLY IS KING! Back to back to back. This time it is outside off stump and Gilly cuts that for four.

 

[12thMan]

16 off the over
Aus 39-0 after 5

 

[Sean]

Rankin has a suspicious action. He'd be fine though and would get off.

 

[Sean]

Nice shot from Gilly. Misfielded and Gilly gets 2.

 

[Sean]

That's just the ball that Hussey need to get going. Full and wide and Hussey creams it to the boundary for four. Next ball is tickled down leg side for four. Into double figures for the first time this tournament.

 

[12thMan]

aus 50 in 41 balls. kind of slow I think. this is like SA pace

 

[Sean]

Boyd Rankin using the Freddy Flintoff tactic against Gilly and Gilly drives him down for four.

 

[Sean]

Inside edge next ball falls short of the keeper. He grabs a single.

 

[Sean]

Bowled him. Aussie gets Gilly out. A brilliant delivery. The Freddy Flintoff tactic has worked.
Aussie man does the chicken dance.
Gilly made 34.
1/62.

 

[Sean]

Roy up the order and in at number 3. This is probably the highest he has ever batted.

 

[12thMan]

oh no Aus one wicket down. I hope they send Hodge or Symonds or Watson now

 

[Sean]

Pulled by Roy through over midwicket for four.

 

[Sean]

Not long until bed time!

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Symo dropped!

 

[Sean]

Roy dropped. He was driving on the up and the fielder jumps up full strecth and gets a hand to it.

 

[ThaSiccSense]

Symo SIX 77/1

 

[Sean]

SIX RUNS! That's the Roy we know. Half tracker and Roy smashes it down the ground for six. It bounces just in front of the sight screen.

 

[infamous9383]

13 more runs to go after this wide

 

[Sean]

Excellent shot with excellent fielding that nearly brings about an excellent run out.
