Australian International Summer

[Bombers4EVA]

Well done Renshaw. Brilliant innings. You and Warner have really set up this match. Now lets have a look at Cartwright. He's probably pretty lucky to come in now when all the hard work has been done. A little bit of pressure has been lifted.

Love Bill Lawry giving the Adelaide fans stick for slow clapping Renshaw!

100% deserved

He's a spud too. Where's all the positive talk coming now? Only hear the negative stuff. Piss weak commentating.

Handscomb yet to be dismissed for less than 50 in test matches since his debut..

Piss weak was booing a debutant who was literally playing the match winning innings

Especially when every man and his dog whinged about our batsmen lacking application and batting time.

Whose the English chick on ABC Grandstand? I actually don't mind her commentating.

Alison Mitchell from the BBC very good and has been doing it for some time.

Fairly certain she hosts the Women's international matches on Sky Sports (Pay TV). The Channel Ten old duck Mel Jones also does this also especially during Australian tours.

Pakistan's catching in this series has been abysmal.

What about the commentating?

She having stints on MMM too or is that a different one?

thats nothing unusual, they are just good at catching a good bet

[Brodlach]

Cartwright gone for 37 bowled by Imran

[locky801]

Not a bad 1st up dig by HOSS, made more in one dig than the bloke he replaced in 3 or 4

[Brodlach]

Dropped twice before 25 in perfect conditions and came in at 4/388

Ferg entered the game on a hattrick at 4/8

Ferg's SS average is under 44.50, shouldn't have been there in the first place.

Im enjoying the inclusions of Handscomb and Renshaw.

2 blokes who actually look as though they value their wicket. A forgotten commodity in the Australian test XI of recent times.

No wonder the Aussies can't win anywhere else in the world, when you produce these sorts of wickets on a consistent basis! Australia are the india of recent decades. People give india grief for their wickets, i'd suggest over the past 4 seasons Australia has produced the most boring test match wickets in the world with the UAE.

Let's settle and wait till they have some tougher tests. Marsh, burns and Voges looked like world beaters this time last summer. Although I like the look of Handscomb, looked real good in Adelaide against a quality attack.

Ferguson's dropping, IMO, is as much due to the fact he failed in the subsequent shield round bat-off, the one where Handscomb and Renshaw cashed in.

In both those innings he looked shot and horribly out of form (chasing balls, playing away from his body). Out of form technically and mentally.

45 more runs for Handscomb (gets to 151) and he'll have an average of 100 (assuming he gets out this innings). Red inks and it's in the bag already.
