PC England v Australia | Tests - Australia (3-2), ODIs - England (3-2)

[Sathish_kumar]

Didn't expect the Suren wicket in end of the Day 2. he performed well in practice matches. Tough situation for us now. still I hope we'll take the game in our hands on Day 3.

 

[Samuels]

The last few overs of the day are always toughest for the batsmen and we cashed the moment perfectly with a wicket. Thanks to sim for a really timely declaration.

 

[Champagnepapi]

What a crazy day for us there really disappointing and some shambolic fielding cost us too much there, considering we once were at the stage where it looked as though Aussies will just get 350 odd score, but with some unluck with the ball and the shambolic fielding really cost us the 2 days.
Me with the ball, gutted at the performance as a vice captain I should be taking most of the responsibilities with the ball and try to nick in few wickets or so.

[Ohm]

Plenty of runs by us. Those two tons were absolutely brilliant. Umair and our skipper also played well.

 

[Till Valhalla]

Now the bowlers should do the job.......

 

[sos]

Hmm. Missed quite a lot of action. Captain, why don't you give me a chance with ball. I mean see the mountain they have put on! I am a seamer and I can show them!

 

[surendar]

Thanks to sim for a really timely declaration.

This! Got you lucky to edge the controversies.

Getting back to the match, session 1 & 2 of the new day clearly very critical for us. Let's have some extra earmuffs guys when we go into bat, these guys on field are noisy enough to distract us.

 

[Umair7]

Who is this Varun he surely hates our best batsmen

 

[surendar]

Define 'Best' in the dictionary. We didn't see anyone as best yet by all standard definitions during Day 1 yet! However we saw good instances of 'lucky' by the same standard definitions.

Probably it's(best) is reserved for Day2? May be!

 

[Aislabie]

Nice to pick up a three-fa, shame it was so expensive. Fortunately, we have batting down to nine, so we should at least be able to make sure we don't lose this. An outright victory will be pretty tough from here though. Despite going off the warm-up stats, it doesn't look like the balance of the side is quite right.

 

[Prithvi]

Suren bhai- I'll sledge you :P
*C'mon Suren Bhai, super shot super shot. Thats how youngsters need to learn how to edge the ball perfectly*
