R.I.P Brazil Chapecoense Real team and others passengers.
Aussies are doing Ok in the one day game against NZ.
We definitely have more world class batsmen in the one day game than test game.
Test game; Warner, Smith, Khawaja.
One day game Warner Smith, Bailey, Finch, Maxwell, Faulkner
Disappointing that Maxwell and Faulkner were omitted but we are still doing OK.
And Head is doing really well!
Smith now holds the record of most run in an ODI at the SCG with 164 runs , too bad he got out the next ball but he's done the job for the team . And that one hand diving catch to his left will be a classic catch highlight reel!
Ps. And Maxwell took a screamer too as a replacement catcher, he has to be included in the next match - sorry, Marsh has to go !
How good is the Boxing Day Test Cricket at the MCG ??
After so much rain delay and Pakistan declare and the match seemingly heading to a draw, firstly the big David Warner ton, then Khawaja 97, Steve Smith's Captain's knock of 165 no out and a quick fire 84 from Starc ( 7 SIXES !!) and declare at 624!
With two sessions and 4 overs to go, the test match suddenly came alive, one wicket either side of lunch, then Garry Lyon's two wickets in 3 balls over, Pakistan is now 4/64, still 117 runs behind, we can win this !!
C'mon Aussie !!
:dita:
:thumbsup:
NICE GARRRRRRRRY !!
5/91, and Lyon on 3 for 21, bring it home Garrrrrrrrrry !!
The boys did it !!
And Starc cleaned up the tails like he always does !
A great team efforts !!
Rest up and see you all in Sydney !
And I'll say Maddison had enough chances , let's bring back Maxwell or Agar !!
The champion mare's first foal, an Exceed and Excel filly, race 1 at Flemington no 10.
Only $2.35 but if she wins you will never see this price on her again !
Happy New Year.
Two changes for the Test today, Maddison has been dropped and O'keefe comes in for Bird.
Agar gets a recall as a second spinner and a batting allrounder . He did a 98 batting at no 11 with Philip Hughes in England on debut in the Ashes but hasn't been seen much since . May be he is more ready now ! In career best form at the moment in the BBL so looking forward to see if he can hold his form ?
Ok, no Agar, Hilton Cartwright on debut today !
Warner got the Ton before lunch ! Absolutely brilliant !!
WARNER is on fire again in the second innings, getting a 50 with only 23 balls !
So, two of the oldest champions in men and women are the 2017 Aussie Open winners:
Serena goes to 23 and Roger now 18!
Love it!
Congrats to both of them ! We must have just witnessed the Best Ever in them this weekend !
Winx has now equalled Pharlap's record of 14 consecutive wins.
Can she equal or even surpass Black Caviar's record of 20 something wins .. maybe not ...
But it's interesting the 3 greatest horses of the 21st century are all mares ... Makybe Diva, Black Caviar, Winx ...
Yeap, the Diva's three consecutive Melbourne Cup, BC's 25 straight wins and now Winx 14 wins in a row plus winning her last two Cox Plate by a combined margins of over 12 lengths - absolute champions !
If Winx stays healthy, she should go through 2017 unbeaten on her way to winning her third straight Cox and equal the great Kingston Town and will then probably takes on the world in Dubai or Royal Ascot !
A great day of horse racing today.
And its a treat to see (and hear!) Francesca Cumani with her expert commentary.
She's not a stunner, but I am a sucker for a British accent, especially a posh British accent.
And an Asian girl with a British accent is my ultimate turn on eg. celebrity chefs Ching and Rachel Khoo, and pornstars Roxy Jezel, Tigerr Benson, Rio Lee, Harriet SugarCookie.
None of them are stunners, but that posh British accent gets me over the line every time ;)
Bruh, anyone excited for the upcoming NRL season and what about Tim Simona gettin caught betting and potentially being banned
Day one in Pune was full of drama , if not for the heroic of Renshaw (68) at the top and Starc (56 no) at the bottom, we would have been bowling last night with not much on the board !
250 is not a great score but not until our bowlers have a go, we have no idea right ?
Another 20-30 runs this morning will be great. Still don't understand why the Marsh brothers were recalled and Khawaja out ! And Zampa took three wickets the other night against the SL, may be a late call up if the other spinners are not effective ?
Ps. Anyone know why the stadium look so empty ??
Happy NBA trade deadline day brothers. Hope you're teams got better and not worse!
I always know if Starc bats well, he will be lethal with the ball, a double wickets maiden to remove the Indian Captain Kohli - game on !
Steve Okeefe ! 3 wickets in an over !
6/95 !!
And now Lyon got Ashwin in the next over, reviewed and OUT !!
7/95 !!
Aussie boys are on fire !!
Steve the Man ! Got his fourfer when Wade stumped J Yadav !! 8/98 !!
So, nobody gave us a chance and yet we won the first test by 333 runs!
Captain Smith got a Ton and the other Steve took 12 wickets !
A feel good Weekend if you are a diehard crickey fans !!
