Well done Shaun!

 

[scottywiper]

Shinboner Shaun!!!

Questioned his selection, but will put my hand up and admit Marsh has proved me wrong so far. Solid innings in Brisbane when we absolutely needed it and now a well made and well deserved ton today.

 

[Firestarter]

I feel like it would take collapses for both teams for the match to avoid a draw.

 

[gokangas]

I said 'no more Marsh's ever" - have to make an exception for this series. One Marsh only. Gritty 100 - all credit to Shaun.

 

[North Viking]

Congrats Shaun Marsh.

Respectable total now!!

I’ll back the Aussies to bowl them out twice. Especially with a swinging ball under lights.
I would be very surprised to see this end up in a draw. 3 days and session left. Plenty of time.

Oh yeah. Forgot it isn't actually stumps yet. Gosh dang I'm stupid.

Speaking of stupid, I have someone else to apologise to after Melbourne Victory. Marsh beating all my disgustingly low expectations.

Fantastic to see Shaun finally getting it to click.

Not so chirpy now huh, Anderson?

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Nice to see the players meeting fans and posing for photos after the early finish was called.

Seen some great innings at Adelaide Oval but not many as enjoyable to watch as that. A West Aussie Kangas man proving the doubters wrong.

Had someone point out that Marsh has only ever been dropped once, every other time injury has forced him out of the team.

He is the Jarrod Waite of Australian cricket. So much potential.

Only problem is that at that point Marsh is 34, Ponting was 24.

Just hope he has a good year or two in the side then can go out on a high note. He'll never silence the doubters, unfortunately.

What a ripping catch by Smith

[DarkPhoenix]

Bowl 'em out, put 'em back in.

 

[ansonholt]

Pat Cummins scored more in his innings than all of the 5 English batsmen dismissed so far

 

[DarkPhoenix]

That is a spectacular caught and bowled.

Horizontal in the non preferred hand.

Joe Root.

Absolute dead shit of a captain. Michael Clarke levels of bad reviews.

His bowler is adamant there was no sound, still reviews it.
