Plenty of air by SOK in his first Test over.

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 07:36

Big shout!!! No review.

always thought sok was recalcitrant

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 07:37

Looks very close - but umpire's call, so good decision.

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 07:43

Now Puddle gets his first Test over.

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 07:45

And a trivia question that I was thinking about today just answered. Puddle makes the 3rd instance of a Dad and 2 of his sons playing Tests, along with Armanaths and Hadlees.

2-18 at Drinks.

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 08:17

YK looks to be settling in.

by Big Dog Wed 22 Oct 2014, 08:39

Looks like its going to be a dour affair. Sleep

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 08:57

Doh!!! Buck drops a toughie at point off Midge.

Still eminently more watchable than a clown cricket slapathon.

Wackies 2-50 at Lunch. Good first hour for Aus but hard work without return in the 2nd.

SOK is rubbish. Can't bowl a maiden and the only bowler going at more than 2rpo. couch

Well we all knew that was going to happen. Still, the NSW mafia will laud his efforts. Rolling Eyes

There were more fans in the CSKA Moscow match last night, and they played behind closed doors.

I was toying with taking the week off to go to this Test or the next but I am still in brownie point deficit with MrsK from the Ashes last year.

Simple. Buy another dog.

I'm saving that for next year's Ashes.

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 11:21

Hard work but Midge gets Azhar. 3-115

by Red Wed 22 Oct 2014, 11:24

Pakistan super slow and as Skully notes, lose their third pole.

by Brass Monkey Wed 22 Oct 2014, 13:32

Gotta love a bit of Younis. Ton up with a six

Fock - then Midge gets him first ball of the new ball. Seems like he's as good as ever - 3/22 so far...

by taipan Wed 22 Oct 2014, 14:27

All square?

by Henry Wed 22 Oct 2014, 14:34

Pakistan will be happy with 220/4batting first. Pitch is only going to rough up more from here.

by skully Wed 22 Oct 2014, 22:27

I'd say Aus would take 4-219 as a pretty good day's work on that deck.

Well done to YK on his 1st ton v Aus. He looked very ordinary early but toughed it out and looked pretty classy in the latter part of his dig.

Great stuff from Midge. I'm in awe of the bowler he has turned himself into.
