dropped

He's having a shocker. Need him to turn it around for a big second innings.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Yeah, Warne never got hit for six!

He sure bowled plenty of wrong 'uns though. Topspinners, too. And flippers. Got wickets with them all the time. He certainly wasn't vanilla and bowled far fewer pies than the GOAT, too.

Dear Captain Smith mate ur a freak of nature but u need to share the bowling around instead of bowling just 4 bowlers continuously.

Give Maxwell more than 4 overs ffs.

You do know Lyon is an off spinner?

You do know Lyon is an off spinner?

You do realise that nearly all world class off spinners have variation deliveries? Sure, they're not called flippers, but they all have the non-vanilla balls. Except the GOAT.

Says you, but you're wrong.

Indians doing their usual dig in and make the game unwinnable by everyone.

OK mav, all offies turn it the one way. And GOAT is the best at it.

LOL.

Or they're about to '2nd test' us.

 

[Twinkletoes]

The Vics are 6/429 in the Shield final.

 

[Mav]

2 wickets, fighting back!

 

[Mav]

And a third! Just need 1 more and the lead is **** all!

 

[LuvtheKangas]

The Vics are 6/429 in the Shield final.

With Patto flying.

The way he's going, plus Cummins' world class effort in the current series, makes for exciting times next summer.

 

[Zondor]

Lyons cleaning up the tail as expected. :stern look

 

[Groucho]

Vics 6-473. Patto 72 and Seb Gotch getting a few (48no)

And bang, he picks up the last wicket.

Holding the ball aloft with clenched fist to say **** you Zondors.

 

[koshari]

5 wicket innings, 32.
runs behind

LOL. Yeah I've been Turkey Slapped. :stern look

 

[LuvtheKangas]

And bang, he picks up the last wicket.

Holding the ball aloft with clenched fist to say **** you Zondors and LtKs - and I did it without turning the ball the other way once, and not even having one that goes straight on with the arm - I am the GOAT!

Fixed.

As soon as he gets a chance at the tail he gets one.

Lyon had taken the same amount of wickets as Warne in India!

Ive always wanted to have a Castle lager at Newlands with the cricket in front of table mountain.

One day....

Just googled Dhamasala. ****in gorgeous!

As soon as he gets a chance? Except for the earlier spell when Jadeja and Saha were motoring along, do you mean?

Short memory mav, it was less than an hour earlier ...

The stats don't account for the fact that previously they doctored the pitches to sabotage Warne's superiority. This time they doctored the pitches in favour of the off spinners and just backed theirs to be better than ours.

 

[archereleven]

Warner to go out in 3....2....1
