oooooh aaaaaah Glenn McGrath!!! Strauss dismissed for 2 by McGrath

 

[otay]

yeah well done glenn, one of the best ever. Was a great ball and catch, cumon on aussie cumon. Of course this game's not over, only just halfway through the first day believe it or not.


And now Strauss is gone too. ooo ah glenn mcgrath i say oooo ah glenn mcgrath.

 

[AsyLum]

Haha, yes the pitch is a bowler's paradise under the cloud should be a good game

Australia 190
England 92/7 (37.0 ov)

Beautiful spell from McGrath, and Lee pitching in at the end.

 

[mrbassman]

17 wickets fall in a day, nice for the bowlers. i missed warnes couple of overs i was hoping to see how he looked after doing alright with the bat. and mcgrath

 

[azzie]

i think this sums it all up really...

 

[copious]

Superb, McGrath dominates again and again. He needs to bowl until he's 40.

Wl, I tk lk i txt, ok? Pt up or sht up!

you text like that?

 

[Bookie]

No [FUCK, I'm the most grammatically correct texter in the world]. But I'm sure Tasha does.

 

[HotShot]

the batting will be easier next innings i am predicting australia should score 250+. The batting conditions was definitely better for England, becuase they had sun and they were warmed up and knew the conditions after bowling on them, yet they failed to make use of it.

Australia 4-0

 

[king_of_boredom]

i can't wait for warney to take out the remaining english batsmen. should be a good 1 tonight.

 

[otay]

well damn, pity for the last hour, we were coasting along. I thought clarked played brilliantly and deserved a hundred. Sorta disappointing that he let the fucking boring defensive english tactic work. I was happy we smahsed that defensive minded wanker giles outta the attack. But those wickets have got england back into the game. i feel we are still just ahead and if we can get to 350 we shouldn't lose. Interesting to note england's highest successful 4th chase is 332 and we are already 314 ahead. Lets hope for another 50 more or so.


wat a catch from martyn, and good to see that cocky cunt peteirson drop another one, i thought he was lucky not to be given lbw 2nd ball of the day.

 

[Bookie]

This match is lame. Australia by a mile.

 

[LaCe]

It could be still an interesting game, Australia will try to bat as long as possible but there is plenty of time to get the runs for England, they just need to be patient, which they are unable to do. With Australia's med attack, any team should be able to dispatch them but there is something up.

Anyway, we should at least draw if not win. McGrath will get another michelle and it will be 1-0
