Crowd will go nuts if Boland hits a four

They did

 

[grumbleguts]

Tongue has the potential of getting a hattrick where two of the bats are the same person.

Crowd will go nuts if Boland hits a four

...And the crowd did go nuts when Scott hit a four that day...

Most craziest day of test cricket I've ever seen. So jealous of ppl who went. Going tomorrow and hope the pitch becomes even spicier and doesn't flatten out.

So he’s saying the groundsmen are shit.

 

[Neese]

Well who would have thought the day's play would go like that. Absolutely crazy.

 

[mumblingpie]

Looking like another 2 dayer

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Boland 200.

Its happening lads

 

[Mick F]

We only needed him to survive one ball. How are people not understanding this?

You clearly know SFA about cricket - not the other way round. He needs to last tonight AND be part of a partnership in the morning.

 

[kickazz]

Just needed Boland to fake an injury on that last ball lol.

And look how much better test cricket is for it, as far as the result goes.

Too bad if modern batsmen have no technique and CA lose money. It’s better for the sport long term even if it hurts in the short term.

Not sure what condition the bed is now

Rotting.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Boland got a golden duck and still scored more than Duckett, Bethell and Root combined.

You'll be getting back on the train by lunch if that happens

****ed. Worse than Lachie Neale's

The pitch has a bit in it. But its not a bad pitch. Some bad batting, decent bowling, and catches held.
Possibly 100 short of a reasonable score on a seaming, but quite playable, pitch.

But England are England, so Australia could get a first innings lead of 60 yet.

Australia have an unexpected lead, but the pitch was not a good first day wicket in a boxing day test match. 20 wickets on day one is not good Test cricket. I think people are more shocked by this and it's affected their own judgements on it.

**** me how desperate are broadcasters in Australia now

Earlier They quoted the Noosa comments about 5 mins after they were posted here

Embarrassing or a coincidence

 

[Chuckie357]

Would be a cracker if he raised the bat walking off haha

Too modest for that

 

[grumbleguts]

Yeah, nuts. Vaughan was saying Head could have come out in thongs and a singlet.

He gets it.

Hes Victorian you get runs

We ****n need to be getting some royalty's here id imagine. Class action incoming

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Opener Boland doing the hard work, flattening the seam and taking the shine off the pill. Doing what openers do....making it easy for our tail end batters so they can cash in.

 

[yabsy]

Why not give Tongue a chance of the hatrick with Boland facing for that final over - pathetic Stokes!
