I bet Steve Waugh and Glenn Mcgrath are throwing up somewhere

What the fuck was that from the Aussies in the 2nd Innings? You have a lead of 221 your an early wicket away from getting the poms rattled and nervous and you let them have a 200 run partnership to open up? This would of never happened in the Steve Waugh era, Siddle is decent, Hilfenhaus hmmm im not sold on him 1 bit, Mitchell Johnson how many chances is this guy going to get? where the fuck is Stuart Clark? that guy was more than decent in my opinion, bring Dougie Bollinger in, during the Summer when Australia played the Pakistani team and they struggled i thought it was because of the conditions and because maybe they wernt up for it but its the same old story. Just looked at the 2nd test odds +120 draw and both teams are +240, the bookies think the Adelaide track will suit the batsmen i guess.

5th Day Gabba half full, enough said

There were no Australians in the crowd in Day 4 and 5.

Sad

Cricket is dead and buried in this country

Cricket looks dead and buried in general actually,even India's test matches the stadiums are completely empty these days,against Australia and NZ nobody was there,all the IPL teams keep folding as well.



Cricket

T20 has prostituted the game world wide.........

Apart from the Ashes,test cricket is dead world wide.......

i used to be a big fan of test cricket and would watch the games live on 9 when we toured SAF or India.

i've pretty much lost all interest cos the sport just packs the calendar making games somewhat less meaningful.

I only really care about the Ashes now. 20/20 has taken over this game. It's all about the $$$ now. It's corrupt as hell.

And this is a reason why I hate this cricket team and Ponting in particular.

Talk about double standards. There have been many many times over the years that Australian batsman under his control have refused to walk.

This is why Australia wont win the ashes. Their captain is focusing on other stuff like this.

I wouldn't believe much I read in the Daily Plodograph, Bolar

20/20 cricket isn't even exciting,they play it in exactly the same fashion as they do 50/50 cricket(hardly ever smash it,work it out around and try and build a score),obviously the only difference being the game is shorter.

i got 4-1 on england to win the ashes a while ago so i dont need to play but it is strange that the books in england and ireland make the two teams 11/8 joint faves, I would have thought england would have been a clear fave.

Australia $2.40
England $2.30

The future is women. Except in Australia.




"The share of women who named cricket as one of their favourite sports on television increased 12 per cent in the UK, and 6 per cent in South Afrcia between 2008 and 2009. It grew by 1 per cent in India, although Australia bucked the trend with a 4-per-cent fall".

how the fuck does 1 person have nearly 2000 posts in less then a month?

jesus fucking christ boy, at least take up surfing for porn and scrubbing the ears off it, or something constructive like that

I have some nice porn on my computer if he wants it. A girl taking three cocks and a few other things!

Tim Nielson. 'Mitch Johnson has done enough to retain his spot for Adelaide'.

Merv Hughes: 'If England are happy with what they did in Brisbane then we should be happy with what we did in Brisbane.'

He used to be a selector. Holy Shit those comments are insane.

I'm convinced Australia will make 0 changes.

I'm also convinced Johnson won't be dropped till boxing day.

Johnson must have pictures of Tim Nielsen getting jacked up the poop.......Otherwise, there is no rational reason to describe why he will be retained......

Glenn Munsie may have done it, Rostos.

Nielson wasn't going to fix the matches for Munsie unless he got some one on one action from him.
