South Africa vs Australia 2nd Test

[Thiele]

Excellent bowling Mitch. Keep up the good work boys

[purch]

Best spell of fast bowling by an Aussie since...

[GWW]

Brilliant work Johnson. Lets knock over the tail now

[FD88]

How good is this, our inexperienced attack has been simply ****ing awesome up to this point.

[Dirko]

Wow! What a beauty!

Brilliant work Johnson. Lets knock over the tail now

At least there are no South Aussie bowlers playing

[spell_check]

The pitch conditions might have something to do with it, this looks like a classical WACA type wicket now!

Spot on. The WACA of old. Great bowling by Johnson. 2 wickets and 2 retired hurt.

There's one for ya spelly. When did a bowler last be the cause of two batsmen retiring hurt in an innings? Do we have to go back to the Windies?

Probably, but I can say for certain that five Indian batsmen were absent/retired hurt in 1976 in an innings against them.

:twisted:

Yeah, blood on the pitch ! Smash 'em Mitch !!

The sound of ball hitting skull and seeing blood on the pitch was music to my ears.

Quote - Jeff Thomson. from his book, bowling in tandem with Lenny Pascoe for Bankstown in grade cricket.

That attack would scare most test openers, let alone a young up and comer trying out for grade cricket LMAO.

Vikas: "I go with Ben. One swallow doesnt make a summer. For me a true No. 1 team is one which can take 20 wickets on pitches like Antigua, Barbados and Karachi. I bet you McGrath, Warne and co. would have done that. This Australian team is yet to prove that. It is just the conditions making them look like heroes. I remember Sreesanth being celebrated when he won a test match for us in SA. Where is he now? So Johnson and Co. have a long way to go .."

That was from Cricinfo commentary, one of the various e-mails posted on there.

A true no.1 team? How many games on those pitches ever get 20 wickets to fall at all? Methinks there are a lot of jealous people out there that we are still able to go so well with an inexperienced team.

And Dean Jones likewise with his terrorist comment. Hookesy also was part of the Foxtel commentary too.

I wonder if Haddin can refer that decision of 4 byes so it can be changed to 5 wides? I thought wides straight away myself.
