1st Test: Australia V Pakistan

[JK]

Spewing thats over, the excitement of will he or won't he was getting me through the work day.

I've never been a huge fan of the bloke, but there's no denying his ability and form, well done Watto.

Same here mate... it was the only thing getting me through today!

Not a huge surprise to see him get his ton from a dropped catch after all he has been through trying to reach double figures.

Also not a big fan but he has been in amazing form with the bat.

Just nicked into the lunch room hoping to catch a replay but instead saw MJ get run out.

Hopefully the run chase gets us through the day!

[Hondo]

well done Watto

Amazing he was dropped on 99!

He's had a great summer so far.

[RoosterMarty]

Plenty of time to take the 10 wickets.

What an innings by Watto, without him we may not have set a target over 400.

[Lightning McQueen]

140 overs, 10 wickets, 422 runs. There will be a result if there is no rain.

A gutsy declaration IMO, good belief in the bowlers shown though. I hope the Paki's play their normal flamboyant game rather than go into their shell like they did in the first dig.

This is what test cricket is all about, a five day game of chess where timing is everything.

Game On.

[Pup]

Went out for Lunch and watched the end of the innings at the pub, First of all well done to Shane Watson, have never been a huge fan but credit to him he is in great touch and what a way to bring up his century. That really was a sitter in gully too.

The dropped chances by Pakistan in this test have been so costly.

Well done Watto!

[locky801]

LBW challenge and it's plumb, Rudi gives it not out, the challenge shows it out

Pakistan 1/18

[Adelaide Hawk]

I guess we always knew the referral system would come in handy with Rudi out there

[RoosterMarty]

With Watto leading the way with the bat and Dougy dominating with the ball we will be back at #1 in no time...

We've seen a lot of exciting talent announce their arrival this summer, Deonarine, Umar, Aamer, Watto and possibly Dougie.

I think Doug the rug is yards ahead of Siddle ATM.

Siddle does better when he shuts up and bowls, he was great for his first few tests, I agree with you though.

Yes I am with you AH on this one, must admit though have never really watched Siddle closely but i thought his entire bowling in the 1st Innings of this test was way way too short, seems to be pitching it up a tad more this innings

[Adelaide Hawk]

Another no ball from Hauritz
