The Ashes - Round 1 - Day 1

[Goodfella]

25-5 This is becoming very embarrasing

 

[tedebear]

there are a few days yet!!

 

[hornet]

Didn't someone say that this was a good pitch?

 

[Marc]

there are a few days yet!!

keep quiet you

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I think it's within 200 for the follow on in test cricket, so we'll avoid that at least.

Really? I thought you had to reach some percentage of the other teams score. I guess I should pay more attention

Either way, if we don't get a grip one of the teams going to batting for the second time on the opening day. Anyone know how many times that's happened before?

 

[tedebear]

keep quiet you

I am you should hear Zef though

 

[Simon Morgan]

we have the last two qualified batsmen in the side who need to get some runs pronto to get us a more reasonable score

 

[Gazwag]

Still 28 overs to go today - not a five thirty finish then.

25-5 This is becoming very embarrasing

Is that the bloody score?!

 

[fatbadger]

Is that the bloody score?!

Nope. We've now reached 34. For five.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Warne hasn't even bowled a ball yet.

 

[tedebear]

slightly unusual Lords wicket - still crap though...

 

[captainmorganrum]

Warne hasn't even bowled a ball yet.

I've heard the Aussies have decided they won't need him so will send him back to Hampshire to play 'gainst Sussex!

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I've just done some maths...

If wickets continue to fall at this rate, we're gonna be all out for...







48!

Ha ha, you couldn't keep it up could you aussies?!

49-5. That's shown 'em.

 

[Brixtaan]

Don't worry, Geraint will save us.

 

[Scarface]

Famous last words...

 

[Brixtaan]

i know but we're fvcked anyway so what the hell.

COME ON KENT's JEWEL

 

[Skaville]

I was very anti Pieterson and pro Thorpe, but I'm eating my words now. A vital partnership...

 

[Brixtaan]

Thats that then.

Roll on Derby.

 

[Skaville]

Sorry for that previous comment. Bound to be a jinx.
