The Ashes | 3rd Test | Perth | Day 1 | 16/12/10

[Random Aussie]

Hughes looking pretty average in these first few balls.

He always looks awful at the crease. But he makes runs. Well he used to make runs.

Tremlett is powder puff pace.

 

[Sledger]

Bowled.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Hughes gone.......

 

[duostyle]

What a shot! Lmao

 

[Newton_fan]

Hughes

Tremlette Better than Broad

 

[Afridi_Fan]

What a UGLY UGLY player, Cricket Australia definately on a slide.

 

[Sledger]

He always looks awful at the crease. But he makes runs. Well he used to make runs.

Tremlett is powder puff pace.

Lovely timing, Don.

 

[Random Aussie]

 

[tauseefm]

AUS = PAK?

 

[Sledger]

Hughes is CRAP. I've never been impressed by this player - even during his hundreds in SA. Just cannot play short bowling and is always therefore weak against the double bluff.

 

[desijazba]

wonderful phillip.

we knew you couldn't play the short ball. apparently you can't play the full ball either.

 

[Friend786]

nightmare for hughes

 

[KingKhanWC]

Hughes )

That was utter rubbish.

 

[Friend786]

good bowling by tremlett

 

[hashman]

Why the ell is this guy in the team?? He has domestic average of 17 or something this season. Totally out of form issed:

 

[Random Aussie]

88 overs to survive until stumps.....

 

[Inswinger]

Time for Hughes to put his money where the mouth is.

Looked more like Farhat than Sehwag!

 

[atif.raza]

where is OZMAN

 

[Newton_fan]

AUS = PAK?

Even Pak looks Better than Aus.

We Just Draw series with World second Best test Team

 

[Sledger]

Way too wide by Anderson.

 

[KingKhanWC]

It was an o.k ball nothing specail. Everything was wrong about his shot.

Punter in early.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Couple to Crybaby.

 

[Sledger]

Much better ball now. Edged/guided by Watson.

 

[oyei]

AUS = PAK?

When Pak played Aussies, Pak had better baller, i think Aussie are worst thn Pak team (pre trio fiasco)

 

[Newton_fan]

I wish Hughes fails too in second Innings. We Want Khawaja

 

[Sledger]

Could be another SCG type of game for Aus if they lose another wicket early. Don't expect another freebe win though. :kami

 

[Random Aussie]

Couple to Crybaby.

Shane "Owns Pakistan" Watson.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Better over from Anderson. Could be tough times for Aus this morning.

 

[tauseefm]

Even Pak looks Better than Aus.

We Just Draw series with World second Best test Team

Bangladesh would've done that as well on such flat wickets

 

[Sledger]

Ponting 100 runs away from his century.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Time for Captain to play a Captain's knock.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Shane "Owns Pakistan" Watson.

Have it your way then. You need something to cheer up.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

In the air but in the gap.

 

[usman_sheikh]

who is this umpire? No flippin eyes

 

[KingKhanWC]

Nicely guided away from Punter. meed

 

[Sledger]

Edged away for four - would have been a catch to 4th slip.

 

[Sledger]

LOL @ the field. )

 

[Sledger]

Tremlett bowling a brilliant line and length. He'll pick another wicket up soon if he keeps this up.

 

[duostyle]

Shot

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Pulled away.

 

[TruSachFan]

Fantastic pull shot by Ponting

 

[Sledger]

Pulled by Ponting for four.

 

[Sledger]

Wasn't that short - impressive shot. The Ponting of old.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Nice bounce.

 

[CricnPak]

Good battle between Tremlett and Ponting.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Out comes the famous pull. Lovely.

 

[Sledger]

Flew off the wicket. This looks like a classic WACA pitch!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

RA already a good start than last game, eh?

 

[TruSachFan]

Edged and dropped

good effort

 

[usman_sheikh]

Out. Ponting gone

 

[MRSN]

dropped

 

[usman_sheikh]

[Friend786]

i want ponting to play well ! for the sake of contest !

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Great effort by Strauss, that was flying. A very hard chance but counts as drop.

 

[duostyle]

What was that!!

Calm down lol

 

[Sledger]

Watson dropped by Strauss. Tough chance but Aus should have been 2 down.

 

[tauseefm]

dropped

 

[KingKhanWC]

Just need to leave the ball on length, it will go over the stumps.

Good effort by Strauss.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Shot

 

[Sledger]

Should have used both hands.

 

[duostyle]

Again shot by skipper

 

[TruSachFan]

Andersons bowling freebies today

 

[Sledger]

Poor ball - flicked away for four.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Right out of the middle. Nice balance.

 

[MRSN]

[Sledger]

Ponting out.

 

[Eagle_Eye]
