Pakistan vs Australia (in the UAE)

[Oaktree]

Siddle clawing his bowling average back below 30 is a bigger achievement than the double ton on this deck

I can't think of many Aussie fast bowlers with a 30 plus average.

 

[Smartys Power]

Not sure how keen I would be for a bat tonight if I were Warner and Rogers. Legs will be like jelly. At least us number 11's can just kick back and relax.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Harris for Starc would be handy right about now.

Would have been handy 500 runs ago

 

[Mateyman]

Commentators are bi-polar. One minute, we are mentally scarred and shocking, nek minnit, we are mentally strong and fight hard.

Brett Lee

 

[danielnajdek]

At least Bill Davoren isn't our fitness guy. We'd be bowling Rogers otherwise.

Warner will be looking to knock off the total tonight mate.

Well there's Lee, so there's one

 

[Doodlesweaver]

You realize that's a myth don't you? Lee got more than 50% of his wickets by dismissing batsmen 1-6.

Stats link?

Any anyway, Sidds has mostly top 6 wickets, nothing wrong with wiping out the tail.

 

[Smartys Power]

Warner will be looking to knock off the total tonight mate.

Knock off the total? Will be building us a lead.

 

[King Elvis]

Gee this is going well

s**t, you know things are bad when BACCS is this negative!

 

[Arecsa]

Get him off or put someone behind him. He was already s**t with 2 good arms, he's near useless now.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

that scorecard hurts my brain

BACKSTOP!

This performace of lyon reminds me of Jason Kreja in the sub continent a few years ago. The guy never saw test cricket again after that

That's interesting.

Nah. Krezja took 12/358 or something.

The game he got smashed for 200 was at the WACA

 

[danielnajdek]

BACKSTOP!

A cardboard cut out of Haddin would be more useful then the actual Haddin.

 

[Oaktree]

I'm guessing they declare at 600.

 

[Black Diamond]

Johnson 1-60 odd from 24 or so overs.

Siddle 1-70 odd from 28 or so overs.

So basically Siddle's output in this game is the same as Johnson's.

Apparently Siddle has no pace or variation. So what is Johnson doing out there?

thats right . then the waca game

 

[Zach Package]

Johnson 1-60 odd from 24 or so overs.

Siddle 1-70 odd from 28 or so overs.

Starc also controlled it surprisingly well given how much he loves a knee high full toss

 

[Arecsa]

5/555!

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

They don't play in Pakistan do that they don't get killed right?

 

[Black Diamond]

I think the moral of the story is it's pretty tough going if you are a fast bowler. Siddle faltered a bit in SA but had a very good Ashes series. I find the shitcanning of certain players to be very distasteful and often quite stupid.
