Ashes Down Under 2013/14

[s(k)aturation]

Brilliant captaincy. Brilliant bowling.

[Jose Jones]

What a load of bollocks batting this is.  Aussies may well have a first innings lead here.

[Stickman]

Well that's the tactics to Carberry sorted for the rest of the series....

What a load of bollocks batting this is.  Aussies may well have a first innings lead here.

 

I actually thought he was looking pretty good and Australia worked him out.

Mind you, this is what happens when you're not looking for runs.

Both sides have suffered for it so far.

 

And I think Johnson is starting to look very fast and dangerous.

[s(k)aturation]

A bit of a procession.

Bell now.

Lyon has bowled superbly so far too.

5/87.

Goodness.

[Son of L8]

So much for "it's a road". Some good bowling, but England piss-poor with the bat once again. Carberry didn't look bad at all, and they had to work to shake him loose, but the rest are harder to defend. 

 

Root looks a bit uncomfortable if you ask me. Got a bit of deer-in-the-headlights in his eyes.

 

Fuck. Bell helps the ball up to Smith and we're deep in the shit.

[s(k)aturation]

FUCK ME.

Prior first ball.

6-87.

Lyon on hat-trick.

[A_S]

These innings are nearly mirroring each other. Wait for Root to go out shortly before Prior and Broad rescue shit with a huge partnership.

 

Come on boys.

[s(k)aturation]

So much for "it's a road". 

 

The wicket's fine.

The bowling is superb at the moment (and Broad earlier)... and the batting too negative.

[Jose Jones]

Jesus titty fucking Christ!

[s(k)aturation]

Root rooted.

Johnson running riot.

7/89.

[Yozzer]

Some astonishingly bad batting here, the fear of the slump carrying over to this series has become all too real. 

[A_S]

He bowls to the left.....

[Son of L8]

Five wickets for seven runs. Astonishing.

[A_S]

He bowls to the right.....

[Yozzer]

He bowls to the right.....

 

That Mitchell Johnson, he's still fucking shite ...

[A_S]

That Mitchell Johnson, he's still fucking shite ...

 

He's erratic as fuck which can mean many leaked runs. When he is on a fast, bouncy pitch though, it must be a fucking pain to face, given it could end up going anywhere. Also, he can afford to go at 4 rpo when none of the others are going over 2.

[s(k)aturation]

He's still fucking shite ...

 

He's fast and unsettling shite at the moment.

[Lee909]

How is that shitcunt getting wickets

[Champ]

I wish I'd never looked now.

I'm certainly not about to look at the invoice I see the builder's just sent. This is bad enough for a girl who just got up for some water

[Yozzer]

I just refuse to give someone who looks like they should be under the investigation of Operation Yewtree any credit - same with Warner.

 

I'd prefer Ryan Harris to take all 7 wickets, he seems like a decent lad.

[s(k)aturation]

Simply fact is, he's bowling fast and brilliantly at the moment.

[A_S]

He might want to think about keeping that mo

[Jose Jones]

When's the rain due in Brisbane?

[Vincent Vega]

What the fuck has happened? It looks like carnage.

 

We're gonna need a repeat of what happened last time at The Gabba to rescue this match, but I'm not sure we have the players in the right batting form to perform a rescue job, and having to perform that rescue job in the fourth innings will be even trickier.
