Thread: YAY it is Cricket time again

great game - I want Oz to win, but 20 mins and 3 wickets required so unlikely. very very good game!

it is a shame they did not have another 30 mins

hmm we did get remarkably close in the end! Siddle looks like he's going to collapse. lol

Ah crap. Well defended by SA but it is a shame that all today all they did was try to not get out so the result is a very small run rate.
SA did quite well though considering their injuries.
fingers crossed Australia wins the next one as they were the favourites in the first 2 tests.

Great stuff!

yawn.....sorry guys always struggled to get into test, 1 dayers being not bad. Now this is only from an outsider that doesnt follow it much at all, but the current crop of Aussie players seem all to metrosexual, and more worried about hair product and twitter.....having forgottern what that are playing for... Not their image, not their sponsers....but some long, deep heritage and tradition. IMO they have little heart!

Peter Siddle showed plenty of heart today. Bowled 31 overs I think it was and was absolutely out on his feet, but kept banging them in and getting wickets. Top effort from him. And the batsmen have been great, obviously Clarke's double centuries and Warner had a good knock, but how about Hussey still knocking out centuries at his age. Top stuff from the old warrior.

yes they certainly don't call him mr cricket for no reason
