Ashes Down Under 2013/14

Highlights on Pick now.

Some twat from a Brisbane newspaper (the one getting into Pietersen on twitter) was on TV a couple of days ago going on about how they were running a campaign to not mention Broad or show his picture for the entire series. He looked very pleased with himself whilst explaining how it's all down to him not walking at Trent Bridge (seriously, are we still talking about this?) and some of his pre-series comments have made him Enemy #1.

 

Fast forward to the end of day 1 and one great parnership from 2 unlikely batsmen is all that is keeping Australia remotely in this game, thanks largely to Broad. If these media wankers haven't worked it out by now, Broad doesn't give two fucks what is said about him. What actually worries me is that he will be in the Steve Waugh/Allan Border mould, ie a guy that you should really leave alone as he uses all this to spur him on and perform even better. Yet this fucking cunthouse of a newspaper are STILL running this bullshit campaign the morning after he has ripped through the Australian batting order.

 

It almost seems like the Australian batsmen and media are actively trying to embarrass the country. Thank fuck for Adam Scott and the bowlers!

 

 

I felt slightly sorry for you for around a second when I saw you were 100 odd for 6, then it panned to Mitchel Johnson's face and any remorse flew out the window with that shitcunts face on TV.

In his defence, the mo is for a good cause (assuming you included that....probably not)

That pitch is fucking dangerous.

[lifetime fan]

Get the fuck out!

Is this Carberry a good bat?

Which County?

[Jairzinho]

Ha. Massive nutter in the crowd.

It really is!

 

Is this Carberry a good bat?

Which County?

 

Hampshire.  Which is why Warne has been nice to him.

Yes. Hampshire.

 

Made up for him, has deserved a chance for about five years.

Any decent streams?

295.

Well, it's something to bowl at.

[lifetime fan]

All out.

[Guest LFD]

Good effort that, advantage England.

Booing Broad off as he waves the ball at them. Brilliant.

 

Now let's see what this top order of ours is made of. With them finished for under 300 and the conditions out there, we've got to be looking for a 150 lead at least. 

[Big Cheese]

Need to bat well. Its never as easy as it looks. Be delighted with a 150 lead.

If a paceman is at his best at Brisbane, he's always a chance to get wickets.

That's a very good result given we lost the toss but could have been even better.

In fairness, they're standing and clapping, and booing.

It's a good natured pisstake.

And Broad knows it and is enjoying it.

Yeah, it's a great scene and hopefully there'll be lots more to come for him in the series.

 

Absolutely need to bat well and sensibly. None of those daft shots we saw too many of in the summer. After the way they played at home, the big England bats need to make a statement here and begin as they mean to go on.

[Yozzer]

Not convinced on Carberry, mainly because of that dodgy helmet he's sporting.

[gaz181]

Good chance for England to lay down a marker for the series now.

Yeah thought we'd got rid of them with James Taylor.

[Tj hooker]

Early days but Carberry looks ok
