Two more wickets but Watson is off
Two more wickets but Watson is off
And what a stupid mistake by the substitute fielder.
Pietersen was caught on just six runs only for substitute fielder Nathan Coulter-Nile to lose his bearings and jump over the boundary rope, handing the Englishman a six instead of an early shower.
We need a wicket or two
Come on Aussie!
Yes Bell out come on lets get another two Pietersen and the new batsman Stokes I think he was the one who got a century in the last test from memory.
Now Bailey drops Pietersen on 41 so he will end up getting a century and he should have been out already twice.
6 for 226, I think the Aussie are on top!
Yeah, Pietersen was given a few extra lives! Should have been out a few times! And England could be all out by stumps !
Shouldn't take too long tomorrow !
Go Aussie !
yes we are probably just in front mainly due to Englands slow scoring but it could have been so much better if we could only catch.
I don't know what the Fxxx is going on with the ABC Grandstand and the stupid Cricket Australia, NO LIVE STREAMING !! I have to fxxking listen to the BBC sports for the Cricket !! It's not bloody good for the sports !!!
Anyway, Day 2 starting soon and let's get Pietersen out ASAP and finish off the tails, we want to see the Aussie boys bat man !!!!!
OK, ABC Grandstand on the CA website is working now !!Quote:

Great start Mitch Johnson !!
Big Mitch has FOUR !
Two Wickets in an Over !
Clean bowled Pietersen !!
EIGHT for 231
Go Aussie !!
:shout::shout::shout:
Mitch got a Fiver !!
LBW on Stuart Broad's foot again !!
England all out for 255 !
Let's see what Rogers, Warner, Watson and Clarkey can do with their bats !!
Go Aussie !!
Warner and Watson both out very cheaply, Clarkey is on !
Shit, Clarke is bowled by Anderson !!
1/19, 2/36, 3/62 !!
At the same stage, England was 1/48, 2/96, 3/106 !!
So we are 44 runs behind England after losing 3 !!
May be sending England to bat first was not such a good idea the way our top order is failing !!
Aussies are 3/96 at tea....not looking good!!!
Now 5/114....looks like its up to Haddin to save the Aussies
That's a pretty poor turnaround from this morning when Mitch was on fire!Quote:

Another batting collapse !
Haddin is gonna run out of partners !
Johnson, Harris and Siiddle should all hang around a bit longer or play some shots !
Bloody Bailey, so gutless, a 19 balls duck ! WTF ! Should play some shots and got out 20 or something!
Well then, I suppose a 5-0 white wash may not be a foregone conclusion afterall !
May be losing Trout &, Swann and dropping Pryor has some positive effects on the England side ?
Just watched Mike Hussey hitted 85 off 46 balls in the ANZ !
Needing 7 off the last two balls to win and got caught ! But what a session ! He could have made a difference today in Melbourne against the Poms !
Mike Hussey (Mr Cricket), was actually Mr Starch
He could always be relied upon to provide the starch in the middle order - never gave his wicket away without a huge fight
Australias batting line up hasnt been the same since his retirement from Test Cricket
We have been through this topic before on the thread
The big problem Australia faced as you say greeksta was the loss of so many matchwinners in a short period of time
Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath, Matt Haydn, Justin Langer, Mike Hussey to name a few
But equally as devastating to our performances was the foreign coach, and the stupid rotation policy
Many many current players, including the current bowling line up, say repeatedly now that their form and confidence have skyrocketed since the flawed rotation policy was axed
Players now have security that they wont be dropped for the next Test if they perform well
All we have to do now is to drop the "high performance coach", and just have one coach who has total control over the players
Go Darren Lehmann, the traditional "no nonsense National Coach"
Well it's the same problem Watson is not a no 3 batsman and Bailey is useless get some decent batsmen to replace them and while your on the job get rid of Rodgers
A big deal was made recently about the fancy athletes diet England had introduced for their players
England was truly intending to win this series
All they ended up with for a diet however has been humble pie
