The Ashes | 1st Test | Brisbane | Day 2 | 26/11/10

[*sallu*]

0-37

 

[AZ]

Bambi on from the Slaughtered Pom end

)

did they rename it overnight?!

 

[Sledger]

Poor bowling by Broad, not full enough and not in the right areas often enough. Dissapointing.

 

[shan]

Denied the great Peter Siddle 2 wickets yesterday

When? Why didnt Peter take UDRS?

 

[KingKhanWC]

Security at the Gabba won't allow any bags in if they have more than one zip.

 

[*sallu*]

Stifled appeal

 

[AZ]

something there for Jimmy when he pitches it up, definitely.

 

[Boi]

I'm off, time for a nap before school.

Good night guys!

 

[Sledger]

Anderson getting some swing here, he's bowling a better (fuller) length than Broad. Could cause problems here.

 

[*sallu*]

Well left

 

[shan]

When there is no swing even Zulkarnain can score against England.

 

[*sallu*]

Wide and left along again

 

[*sallu*]

Commentators remembering how Aamer knocked over Katich

 

[Sledger]

Waaay wide.

 

[*sallu*]

nudged back to the bowler

 

[Sledger]

I'm surprised Taylor mentioned that. The words 'Amir', 'Asif' & 'Butt' have now become taboo if used in a cricketing sense.

 

[Noork85]

Commentators remembering how Aamer knocked over Katich

What did they say? Amir had england and australia under his thumb

 

[*sallu*]

edged for :4

 

[Sledger]

Guided away for 4.

 

[AZ]

away swinger but too short, Katto waited for it and nicely guided between slip and gully.

top shot.

 

[Sledger]

What did they say? Amir had england and australia under his thumb

That Katich has struggled against Amir the most recently.

 

[Noork85]

:4

 

[*sallu*]

What did they say? Amir had england and australia under his thumb

They were discussing Katich's technique and remembered how Aamer knocked his leg stump and troubled him consistantly

 

[Random Aussie]

Security at the Gabba won't allow any bags in if they have more than one zip.

That's why they are referrred to as the fun police. 7000 people who bought tickets for yesterday didn't bother to attend.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

swann will be taken to the cleaners, over rated. The only reason he is doing well is because of mushtaq ahmed.

Eng bowled short to pak and it worked but bowling short here will not do. Come on aussies...

 

[Noork85]

I hope amir comes back. Rather depressing when his name is mentioned and reminded of how good he was/is.

 

[Sledger]

Loving channel 9s virtual field. )

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Commentators remembering how Aamer knocked over Katich

Aamer who? lol

Are people still talking about that fool.

 

[Noork85]

This is swanns real test. Hes excelled against pak and bangladesh. Lets see if he has it or is he over rated

 

[*sallu*]

bouner

 

[Random Aussie]

What did they say? Amir had england and australia under his thumb

Yeah he averaged 30 against us. Totally pwned us nobody has ever averaged 30 against us.

 

[Sledger]

Is this cricket for toddlers? They're naming each fielder..

 

[Random Aussie]

Thanks for the 5 run over Jimmy.

 

[*sallu*]

defended to point

Watson looking solid

 

[pinger]

Need 450+ to put some pressure on the Poms and get this one in the bag. Cmon lads

 

[*sallu*]

Huge Appeal

 

[AZ]

howzaaaaaaaat!

Watson hit in front, looks damn close.

 

[shan]

Not house full? Any reason why? In England you would get full houses even in non-ashesh series.

 

[*sallu*]

But no review LOL

 

[KingKhanWC]

That's why they are referrred to as the fun police. 7000 people who bought tickets for yesterday didn't bother to attend.

That's crazy, hope they get a full refund.

 

[Sledger]

They might review. Nope..

 

[OZGOD]

big appeal LBW (what else) against Twatto, but Billy says no

 

[Sledger]

Yeah he averaged 30 against us.

He averaged 22 iirc.

 

[*sallu*]

Well left again

 

[AZ]

inside edge, :billyd

 

[Sledger]

Huge edge.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Cook misses a run out!

 

[James]

Broad knows to bowl in situations like this. not worried about him.

Jimmy is crap.

Massive miss there

 

[*sallu*]

DRAMA

Missed run out

 

[Sledger]

Missed. )

 

[shan]

*** was katich doing there?

 

[AZ]

YES NO WAIT!

Katto stuck in the middle, but Cook misses!

big chance!

 

[OZGOD]

shambolic from the OZ and the Poms

 

[Random Aussie]

He averaged 22 iirc.

Nope, check the stats.

 

[Sledger]

It was Katich's call, poor from Watson.

 

[GOAT]

Missed! How do you miss that?!

 

[*sallu*]

Was out by miles had that hit

 

[Noork85]

Thank god. Run out missed

 

[*sallu*]

Left alone again

 

[*sallu*]

Fielder could've taken a little more time

 

[Random Aussie]

Not house full? Any reason why? In England you would get full houses even in non-ashesh series.

1) It is a work day
2) The fun police
3) English grounds are a lot smaller than Aus grounds

 

[AZ]

beauty from Jimmy, Katto chases it but hits thin air.

 

[*sallu*]

Beaten all ends up

Outswinger from jimmy

 

[Noork85]

Thatll rattle katich

 

[OZGOD]

hopeless throw from Prior

 

[ads101]

luck's not with England today.

 

[Sledger]

Nope, check the stats.

I have, he indeed averaged 22.27 in England as that poster was pointing out (had Aus and Eng under the thumb).

30 is his overall against Aus.

 

[Noork85]

Uh-oh

 

[*sallu*]

Left alone again from Katich

 

[James]

well at least there is something going on out there. need 3 wickets in the morning IMO.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

That was a great chance for England - Katich very lucky, no idea where he was going

 

[GOAT]

Nope, check the stats.

You're both talking about different things. Amir averaged 22 in the last series but his overall career average is 29 against Australia.

Edit: Oh nvm sledger got it

 

[*sallu*]

Pushed to mid off

End off a good over

 

[Sledger]

Anderson bowling quite well here, not sure why people are ignoring how average Broad has looked.

 

[OZGOD]

Not house full? Any reason why? In England you would get full houses even in non-ashesh series.

the crowd will trickle in during the arvo.

 

[*sallu*]

Both bowling decent, but Watson looking in command

 

[*sallu*]

Well left

 

[Random Aussie]

I have, he indeed averaged 22.27 in England as that poster was pointing out (had Aus and Eng under the thumb).

30 is his overall against Aus.

Ah traditional PP cherry picking of stats at work.

 

[*sallu*]

Aus 0/42
Watson 17
Katich 22

 

[KingKhanWC]

Aussies have only scored one 100 opening partnership V England at the Gabba and that was in 1933/34 bodyline series.
