[shagnasty]

is it a bad batting wicket it looks like we will batting on it soon

 

[embree]

There is nothing wrong with the pitch. Disciplined line and length, shit batting, we are simply playing far and away the better cricket.

98 all out on Boxing Day. 98 all out on Boxing Day

And to think some people thought the bowling was the problem after Perth

 

[embree]

I think it bears repeating:

98 ALL OUT ON BOXING DAY

Mitchell's Johnson hoops one down leg side, barely landing it on the cut strip for four byes. Good to have you back Mitch

Lovely knock Mr Cook. Must have been intimidating after the Aussies set a new record (low score) for the MCG

 

[shagnasty]

Seems to be determination about cook in this series,and he as had a brilliant tour so far

[butchersapron]

Not a bad day. Normal service has been resumed.

 

[embree]

Yes, shows what a load of cobblers all the chat about 'momentum' can be.

One hand and a couple of fingers on the urn now

 

[Dan U]

Had a great day at the G, for anyone whose not experienced a Boxing Day test, what an atmosphere. Big up the singing English. Can't wait to go back on day 3 to see Ponting resign

There is nothing wrong with the pitch. Disciplined line and length, shit batting, we are simply playing far and away the better cricket.

this bares repeating.

according to the Aussies on the MCG radio commentary, the wicket changed repeatedly during the day. it was wet, swinging, straight and changing colour almost hourly, sometimes all at the same time.

we did exactly what embree says, bowled line and length, kept it tight and waited for the mistakes. Bresnan won't make the headlines i doubt but he did great today, really kept the pressure on and it was good to see Jimmy get some rewards

i really doubt the Aussie bowlers would have made quite as much of the cloud cover as our guys did, they just aren't as disciplined as we were today

 

[SpookyFrank]

Aren't the aussies's still sad they're only a one man team?

Which man is that then? Ponting? Has he even got 100 runs in the whole series?
