England in Australia

[IloveGilly]

Yeh, I guess so. A lot of time off and working on his test game has probably made him better.

Why does Gilly get Flintoff

 

[aussie1st]

Best to chuck Hayden against Flintoff, Gilly just can't time it against Freddy. Another cheap over from Flintoff.

 

[IloveGilly]

Wow, Haydos was looking so good. He switched to overkill mode tho'. 20 from 8 is a real launching pad.

That six was awesome, timed and smashed.

wow hayden looks great tonight...i think he's making a statement even though its still early..

i think i spoke too early...oh well thats 20/20 for ya....exciting stuff!

 

[aussie1st]

Very nice 6 by Hayden, too bad he got out as he was really entertaining. Much better shot by Gilly, hopefully that gets him started.

 

[IloveGilly]

I think he's trying too much to try and slog, since he's known as the big hitter.

Punter hit the first ball!

 

[aussie1st]

This partnership looks like they are just pushing it and nabbing it around taking singles

Lol what was Flintoff doing, short ball to Punter = no no
Oh here we go, thats better Punter.

Lol, think again.

Punter wants a big score, and Gilly won't settle for a lot of singles especially in 20/20.

Yea there was that one over where it was singles, but now the party is starting again

OMG Lewis dropped a sitter.

 

[IloveGilly]

What a sitter! Poor guy!

Gilchrist is set to overkill!

 

[aussie1st]

Wooohooo, Gilly is back in town now 2 6s in a row, watch out England!

Edit: 3 in a row!

 

[skinnywicket]

that dropped catch just blew lewis's one day chances
by the way does anyone know what the record highest score internationally is for 20/20

 

[IloveGilly]

Wow, 18 in 3 balls! Always love to see that.

This is fantastic. Gilly miced up. 3 sixes in a row.

Now Monty is on. Will be interesting. They have such a good start, they don't really need to try take him for a lot.
