[cricfan967]

Good stuff by by Cook

 

[cricfan4ever]

Watto you youngsta beauty! Gets rid of the Troll!!!!

 

[cricfan967]

lol at the booing, KP must be wanting to shut them up!

 

[Strike!]

Twatson is just about the right pace for a medium-fast bowler.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Doherty?

AZ, PP going slow, is it just me?

 

[*sallu*]

That was very good by Watson
Swung the first couple odd and brought that one back in

And yes, PP is slowing down

 

[Sledger]

Yeah, PP very slow; can't reply.

Watson could trouble Pietersen here, he's bowling like

 

[*sallu*]

Hilfy bowling well to KP

 

[Sledger]

I agree that it was stupid to boo KP (he's the type who can get fired up by that).. maybe its revenge for Ponting in England though lol.

 

[AZ]

I thought it was just me!

seems to be fine now

 

[Sledger]

What are the commentators on - it was a big wide lol.

 

[AZ]

beauty from Watson, he's getting the ball to talk out there.

 

[*sallu*]

Watson bowling well

Shocking but true

 

[*sallu*]

KP also looking nice and positive out there

 

[Sledger]

See, Watson bowling like .

Similar pace, full in length and doing a bit either way. Could get Pietersen.

 

[Noork85]

Doing a good job rotating strike

 

[*sallu*]

Why is PP so slow?

 

[*sallu*]

Straight down the ground for :4 by KP

 

[*sallu*]

20 overs gone

66-2

 

[Sledger]

PP has died lol...

 

[Sledger]

Big turn.

 

[*sallu*]

Turn Straighaway

Swann licking his fingers?

 

[Sledger]

Swann is going to turn square on here.

 

[cricfan967]

Great shot

 

[Strike!]

Pieterson's lowest average is against Pakistan.

 

[ads101]

KP just faked his weakness to left arm spinners to fool the aussies for the ashes

 

[Sledger]

turn it square*

 

[*sallu*]

What the hell is wrong with pp? -___-

 

[*sallu*]

Is PP Alive again?

 

[*sallu*]

Great fielding

 

[CricnPak]

Lol at Slater, Healy and Warne sledging in the commentary box (KP's Giraffe stance). Some things never change eh...

 

[cricfan967]

PP going incredibly slow!

 

[Sledger]

Pietersen not a great player of these line and length types, he doesn't look comfortable and is grunting each time he blocks lol. However, Watson clearly doesn't have the extra zip off the wicket had.

 

[Sledger]

PP very slow, yeah.

 

[*sallu*]

23 overs gone

73 for 2

 

[*sallu*]

Xavier also like many others, looking steady but non-threatning

 

[cricfan967]

This contest getting really interesting.
Love having Willow TV

 

[cricfan4ever]

why is PP slowing down???

btw, Aussies need 1 more wicket before lunch!!!

 

[*sallu*]

droppppppedddddd

 

[Fawad2010]

PP going incredibly slow!

RR?

and 3.17 is not too bad for test match, especially after the loss of two wickets.

 

[*sallu*]

dropped by debutant

Should've been taken

 

[Sledger]

Cook dropped.

 

[*sallu*]

That might hurt Australia

 

[Black Zero]

PP very slow, yeah.

Do you host your web servers yourselves?

 

[Fawad2010]

OMG.
that was not too hard. but I guess its his first match, he might be nervous.

 

[Fawad2010]

Shane ain't no

 

[*sallu*]

Good battle going between the X and KP

 

[Fawad2010]

X. Doherty is 28!!
he looks like a teenager!

 

[cricfan967]

What a horrible throw, things getting spiced up

 

[Fawad2010]

i m loving it!

 

[cricfan967]

Lunch, even start so far

 

[cricfan967]

PakPassion really laggy

 

[ads101]

aussies slight edge for me. If Aussies had taken that catch, England would have been in rea trouble.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Its 86-2

KP looks in good touch - reckon he might make a big score here

 

[*sallu*]

Looks like PP is back to normal

These lags are becoming very regular nowadays

 

[Noork85]

Feel bad abt xaviers dropped catch. Aussies couldve owned this session.

 

[GOAT]

Dropped catch on debut. Ouch.

I though X was a lot younger than late 20's, I look like more of a grown man than he does and I'm 20!

 

[UmarAkmals-fan]

this X. donkeytry guy looks like another patanaa de sweet dish like broad

 

[Sledger]

4 first ball after lunch.

 

[spoiled]

test match sofa
test match special
so much happening around the ashes and specially when english cricket is involved
wish i could get skysports HD in canada

 

[IT_Khumbee]

Johnson is bowling is typical leg side rubbish...He only bowls well against us

 

[WhiteDudeFromTrinidad]

Cook is starting to score a bit more freely now. Good stuff from him imo

 

[spoiled]

what is johnson doing man

 

[SOSami]

Statin' the bleedin' obvious but one batsman needs to go on and get a big score, which is something England have always struggled to do in Oz.

Oz bowling does look cr*p though so this is the time if ever there was one.

 

[WhiteDudeFromTrinidad]

Botham recalling the pig incident

 

[Fawad2010]

Come on Aussies!

Maybe need spin from one end?

 

[Decipher]

Australian bowlers with a totally different approach??

Against Pakistan... the simply stuck with short ball in the ribs and we kept falling like flies ... why not short ball to KP ??

 

[GOAT]

I take back what I said. Hilfy can pull of the stash, just give him one more month of growing it and he'll be Dennis Lillee 2.0-- less the overrated part!

 

[cricfan967]

England building .. a wicket is needed

 

[WhiteDudeFromTrinidad]

opinion on the betting exchanges is evenly split

all three possible results are now trading at the same price of 2/1

 

[cricfan967]

GONE! brilliant! Whata catch

 

[OZGOD]

Kevinder for 43

 

[Sledger]

Brilliant bowling by Siddle, he's been superb all day.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Well bowled Siddle, well caught Punter.

KP was asking for it.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Here comes the collapse.

 

[Sledger]

Aus attack looks pretty crap. MJ needs to hit form, Hilfenhaus is steady but more a support bowler than a matchwinner (don't think he's ever taken 5). Siddle has been top notch in this match and Watson was the only other seamer who bowled well.

 

[cricfan967]

Nearly gets another one

 

[cricfan967]

Dangerous spin

 

[cricfan4ever]

Ponting took an excellent catch...good bowling from Siddle

very -esqe dismissal of KP there...
