The Ashes | First Test | Brisbane | Day 1 | 25-Nov-2010

[DonJee]

has an built in hawkeye.

hahahaha , made me laugh!

 

[1137moiz]

Hilfenhaus is a pleasure to watch.

Tremendous accuracy.

I know, MashaAllah. He's a bowler I looked at about 2 years ago and thought "I want to bowl like this fella"

 

[*sallu*]

He needs to learn the offcutter.

He has one (ask Ravi Bopara) but no where near as dangerous or pronounced as

 

[OZGOD]

The Gabba is full to the brim

 

[KingKhanWC]

absolutely caking my pants every single delivery.

Your only one down, what did you think of Struass's shot?

 

[Noork85]

Packed stadium, good stuff

 

[AZ]

absolutely caking my pants every single delivery.

Too
Much
Information
!

 

[JibranAnsari]

He has one (ask Ravi Bopara) but no where near as dangerous or pronounced as

as good as gul's?

 

[James]

horrendous shot from Strauss, but these two look decent.

 

[atif.raza]

we need a swann smiley through this Ashes series please.

 

[NZPakistanFan]

absolutely caking my pants every single delivery.

Ha, yeah I'm supporting England (just because I could never support the Aussies) and every delivery feels like it's going to be a wicket. Going to have a heart attack at this rate.

 

[Sledger]

If Trott starts this BS delaying..... issed:

 

[kingusama92]

Mitch's facial hair reminds me of puberty staches.

 

[James]

liking the Trott. got a good idea of where his off-stump is. century please.

 

[Sledger]

Good bowling by Siddle now.

 

[*sallu*]

Mitch's facial hair reminds me of puberty staches.

)

 

[1137moiz]

Yeah Hilfy has a neat little off-cutter. But his stock delivery is an outswinger

 

[NZPakistanFan]

Hilfenhaus is a pleasure to watch.

Tremendous accuracy.

Underrated bowler in my opinion. Decent speed, moves it in the air, accurate. Plus a lot of heart. Reminds me of Craig McDermott in some ways.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

trott is so annoying

 

[Zaheer Abbas's Fan]

Interesting, ball popping through the still wet wicket, once it dies and hardens day 2 and 3 its gonna be quick!

 

[Sledger]

Good over.

1/12.

 

[Random Aussie]

Good bowling from us. In your face India!

 

[AZ]

lol @ Sky commentator's rating Mitch.

you just KNOW they don't mean it, deep down they still think he's crap!

 

[Genghis]

Great to hear that the Gabba is packed. I'll be going on Saturday.

Good to see the Aussie bowlers giving it to the poms, but just waiting for Johnson to come on and start throwing some pies...

 

[Noork85]

Good running by aussies

 

[AZ]

hit Trott on the pads Ben, he's not gonna edge it!

 

[Sledger]

Pathetic ball - deserved 4.

 

[AZ]

short and on leg stump, Trot swivels and tucks it away down fine leg.

 

[Sledger]

Beanud on Trott - "No point sledging him".

Maybe he should ask :umarakmal

 

[JibranAnsari]

4

 

[kingusama92]

Beanud on Trott - "No point sledging him".

Maybe he should ask :umarakmal

OR Wahab Riaz.

Trott is probably one of the better ones to sledge.

 

[NZPakistanFan]

Though I'm supporting England, I just can't get behind Trott after incident with Riaz a few months ago. Everytime I watch him bat, I think of cleaning him up twice and smile to myself

 

[KingKhanWC]

Wonder how quick Punter will bring on the left hander Mitch to get at Cook?

 

[Sledger]

Siddle bowling very well here.

 

[AZ]

EDGED!

ah, didn't carry, just short.

 

[NZPakistanFan]

Shot of Mushtaq Ahmed in the stands

 

[Noork85]

Fudge

 

[Sledger]

Again well bowled, lands well in front of slip. :adnan

 

[Sledger]

This time he seams it in, inside edge for 1. Great over.

 

[cricfan4ever]

Siddle almost had Trott...argghhh

get Trott out quick!!!!!!!

 

[*sallu*]

Incutter from Hilfenhaus

 

[James]

if they can just see this off without exposing Gay Pee, there are runs to be had.

 

[Sledger]

Swing seems to have stopped - still moving a bit off the wicket though.

 

[Sledger]

2 more to Trott.

 

[AZ]

firmly punched down the ground, 2 more for Trott.

 

[AZ]

leading edge to gully, just short!!!!

close!

 

[tauseefm]

I am sensing a collapse

 

[Sledger]

Great bowling, very full and found the desired swing.

 

[cricfan4ever]

this pitch wud be ideal for &

 

[KingKhanWC]

On Trott

"He is ugly, I never played like that"

)

 

[IT_Khumbee]

Trott is a changed batsman after getting kut from

 

[*sallu*]

Time for MJ soon

 

[Sledger]

would get KP out I reckon.

 

[JibranAnsari]

aussies need a shoaib akhtar to get trott out

 

[AZ]

Oz are gonna beat the CRAP out of Finn on this wicket! can't wait!

 

[Sledger]

Siddle has been Aus best bowler imo.

 

[Genghis]

this pitch wud be ideal for &

You meant the other amir right?

 

[James]

Oz are gonna beat the CRAP out of Finn on this wicket! can't wait!

2nd day could be good for bowling, supposedly the pace in the wicket will increase.

 

[*sallu*]

Siddle has been Aus best bowler imo.

There have been only 2 till now

 

[cricfan4ever]

Aussies could use just about now to get rid of Trott...

 

[IT_Khumbee]

bowled out Aus for 120 odd on a similar pitch last year.

 

[Genghis]

Trott living dangerously ... but I guess if these two can play out the first session it will put them in a good position.

 

[cricfan4ever]

You meant the other amir right?

lol yes...

 

[Sledger]

There have been only 2 till now

Yeah, better of the two.

 

[Zaheer Abbas's Fan]

bowled out Aus for 120 odd on a similar pitch last year.

Asif or McGrath perfect for this pitch, be 3 wickets down by now with those two

 

[*sallu*]

Things seemed to have settled down now

Will not be surprised with a good recovery

 

[Sledger]

Another good over by Peter.

 

[*sallu*]

Its MJ time

 

[AZ]

MJ coming into the attack!

 

[*sallu*]

Khawaja on the field

 

[Sledger]

MJ time.

 

[Noork85]

Mj into the attck

 

[*sallu*]

lol, poor ball to start off with on the pads

Disappointing after all the hyping

 

[Sledger]

Leg stump ball to start haha.

 

[*sallu*]

Nasser Hussein: What have you got Mitchell Johnson?

 

[*sallu*]

2nd ball also full and straight, not doing much

 

[Noork85]

Whos khwaja replacing?

 

[Genghis]

The pie thrower is on ....

 

[Sledger]

Next ball will be a no ball according to Katich.

 

[*sallu*]

Whos khwaja replacing?
