Havent been overly impressed with Hazelwood in the 3 innings he has bowled this series, got a couple of easy wickets in Brisbane but bowling the wrong line alot.

These two at the crease look more than comfy against him, time for some real dance music

I'd listen to MMM gladly if it wasn't for Brayshaw and Waugh. Can't stand the cockheads. Aggers and Tuffers trying to look at any positives and then pausing with a sigh followed by "no". Very funny blokes.

That was an odd one, there was a definitely a noise including snicko showing one miles after the ball beat the bat

The bat wasn't close to the ground or pads though, strange

Yep, certainly makes one suspicious of Snicko
So what caused the spike ?
No talk about it at all.
What if that random spike just happened to occur as it was passing the bat?
Would have to be given out even tho it would not have been caused by the ball hitting the bat.
There have been cases of batsmen being given out on a snicko spike with no hot spot and vice versa.

As it should be !!!!
It is Test cricket after all.
Always a better spectacle when bowlers are on top and see batsmen have to tough it out.
Far too often its a batsmans game which can make it boring to watch at times.

What a ******* awesome venue the Adelaide Oval is. Stunning sunset, great Test Cricket (this session anyway) and the Barmy Army singing non stop. The carnival atmosphere of the Adelaide Test is making this event bigger and bigger every year. Makes you proud to be South Australian watching all this.

Mick Molloy on MMM is enough for me to avoid listening to the station. He's a dead set idiot with NFI about cricket.

Massive fan of the pink ball. It brings back parity with Test Cricket.

Usi LBW. I think a tad unlucky.
Smith against a genuine Swinging ball will be good to watch.
