Dec 3-7: 2nd Test: Australia v England at the Adelaide Oval

[Left_Hander]

Great fightback from Watson and Hussey. They needed to get through to lunch and did that. Watson's shot to get to 50 was quality.

 

[angryangy]

Interesting stuff.

 

[Sureshot]

Incredible start, but it's all gone a bit flat now. The Aussie tail is quite long, Haddin is in good nick, who knows what North might do. 3 more wickets in the next session please.

Not much after that now though with Johnson gone, to be fair.

 

[darthlewis1]

yes! finally, I was worried australia would put on another big partnership.

That's what I meant by long tail. Or have the cricketing terminologies been changed of late?

Go on Jimmeh!

 

[JonDogg]

The pitch had nothing to do with the wickets. The 2 catches in slip was just great bowling by Anderson with late swing, the pitch had nothing to do with it.

Great catch by Pieterson just after lunch. I just hope the Aussies last the day and make 300 runs.

Jimmy!!!


I thought I'd wake up in time to catch the start. I did wake up. And I was like 'screw it, nothing much is going to happen'

Sigh.

Oh sorry, I got confused and thought you meant the opposite.

 

[angryangy]

I think the quality of a tail should be measured in thickness, rather than length.

angryangy added 17 Minutes and 20 Seconds later...

Six runs until the world's cash reserves are banked on North.

 

[angryangy]

Hah! The world's money is safe.

 

[Sureshot]

Odd shot.

 

[pcfan123]

Broads bowled really well too, he should get some reward in the last session.

 

[angryangy]

I don't think Broad would be unlucky to go wicketless.

 

[Sureshot]

He's bowled well, as he did in Brisbane, hopefully he'll grab some wickets.
