Australia V Sri Lanka - 1st Test - Hobart - December 14th

[Jim05]

I haven't seen alot of Herath but geez he must of played on some mine fields to have taken 50 wickets at 20 this year!

Did I hear correctly that he was the leading wicket taker in the last 12 months?
Doesn't look like getting a wicket ATM

Yep I think 55 wickets in 9 matches at an average of 20.

Next closest is Swann with 52 wickets in 13 matches at 30

This attacks a joke..

I can't think of a worst attack in Test match cricket at the moment. We should keep batting and humiliate them

[Jim05]

Good spinners seem to struggle in Australia recently.
Reckon I heard Murali took 4/400 on his last tour here.
Shows how truly amazing Warney was

True but murali was bowling to one of the best batting orders in the history of the game!

We could bat into day 3 and still win this.
Think the weather might be a concern so I think we will declare around the 550 mark

Good point.
Still cant remember too many overseas spinners to dominate over here in last 10 years

[Jim05]

Clarke has declared at 5/450

Obviously has the weather in mind, I don't mind it but would have liked to see Huss and Wade have a full on slap for a bit before declaring.

Dafuq

Not a bad move
Bit of cloud cover, probably thinks we can have them 5-6 down for not a lot tonight.
Still think we are a good chance of not having to bat again

It looks pretty dark there so I would be surprised if they get a full days play even with the lights

Good aggressive captaincy

Need early wickets then we run through them

[Jim05]

Any chance of Hilf or Starc not pitching on leg?
Terrible opening 4 overs

[Jim05]

Tea
0/21
Pretty ordinary start by the Aussie openers but thats what happens when you dont open with your best bowler

[Jim05]

Hilf strikes straight after the break
1/25
