Test The Ashes Fifth Test January 4-8 1000hrs @ The SCG

I was just thinking you shouldnt be able to review it, if you offer no shot.

My problem with this. It generally ‘looks worse’ when no shot offered. Often see these given and it’s nowhere near out.

 

[HirdsTheWord]

OK I get that your room temperature IQ makes you a little hard of thinking, (I mean look at your username.) But the ball was 8 overs old when he came in. Even YOU should have been able to look that up.

It's webster that's had the free ride where the age of the ball's concerned.

wtf does a ~12 year old username got to do with anything? Am i supposed to be bothered changing it?

Anyways i was being facetious. Green has had plenty of chances. Webster has shown form from the get go.

Green has talent and will be part of the squad long term. But that doesn't mean he just gets a spot without performing.

Oh f me, here we go AGAIN with fox ray crap.

Clear push to sell it on the final day/s of the series..

 

[Rustin Cohle]

How obvious is all this shilling for fox ray this morning

 

[Tyberious Funk]

Bag them but they are still better than Weatherald. Be fair Crawley has been pretty good after the 2nd test.

After the second test, Crawley has averaged 34. He has a career average of just over 31. So I suppose you could describe him as being "pretty good", given he's performed better than average.

 

[Sphynx]

**** me, give it a rest.

10 times in an hour...

 

[Andrew Mc]

Is the Aussies review for Stokes wicket the only decision to be overruled on DRS this match?

Even that was only a real light feather and not exactly a howler from the umpire

I think so. They've had a good match for sure.

Alyssa Healy talking up fox cricket's cameras "running at 250 frames per second"

A $200 gopro does that Alyssa.

Justin Langer getting a gig on channel 7 is horrendous. He's so bad.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yeah Crawley hasn't been the worst, think I saw he's on the leaderboard for runs made in a 5 test series after starting with a pair.

Yeah he’s one that has tried to find a middle ground between Bazball and normal test batting. Batted beautifully in Adelaide.

 

[Punts]

Way to wide Starc

 

[LukeParkerno1]

After the second test, Crawley has averaged 34. He has a career average of just over 31. So I suppose you could describe him as being "pretty good", given he's performed better than average.

Which is a mile better than what Weatherald has dished up. He’d easily be our second best opener

I think so. They've had a good match for sure.

There's some matches where it feels like you challenge nearly every umpiring decision - this match is not one of those, been really good from both umpires

The Fox Sports super fast camera obviously on the commentators briefing sheet this morning. Getting more mentions on Fox than Pendlebury's basketball history gets on Bigfooty.

That's quite the impressively ridiculous opinion, so well at home in this thread.

Its either him or FoxRay. We can't win.

Never knew he played basketball.

IT'S TEST CRICKET!!

ABC radio for me while Langer is on

 

[peternorth]

IT'S TEST CRICKET!!

Wrong

It's NRMA TEST CRICKET

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Bethell just can’t help having a dabble outside off.

 

[cats_09]

Potts saved from further humiliation by not bowling this morning

 

[ams4crows]

Boland getting an edge in both overs and then both not carrying.... Perhaps everyone needs to step up

 

[cats_09]

Do we need to take a step up in the slips?

 

[satty]

I gather the feeling that starc wants to rip duckett one more time and send his ass back to uk.
