Fuck off Finn!
Is Finn always like this? He's gifted them runs when bowling, forgot to watch the ball earlier & now he's dropped it through his hands!
No. He's a superb cricketer.
I assumed so with him being in the England ashes team, but as I've seen some tripe in the English footy team I thought it was worth asking!
What an amazing test. Fucking bricking it though!
Couldn't agree more. Thrilling stuff.
Finn can fuck right off though. Completely screwed England over. Not just in that spell but for most of the test.
@FoxForceFive - As someone who is pretty new to watching test cricket - What a treat you've had in this test. If it doesn't go Englands way it will suck but the beauty is this is the first of 5 tests. Plenty more drama and theatre to come. I don't like cricket - I LOVE it!🙂
Yeah, it's fucking exciting!
I've usually assumed cricket is very slow & ponderous, but like the momentum thing it changes dramatically so draws you in anyway.
Also, understanding that when you're batting, making the game quite slow & ponderous is exactly what you want sometimes makes it exciting too!
So, after these 5 tests, there's another 5 at Christmas in Australia?

December & Jsnuary yeah.
Yep! I'll be there for some of that as well. Trying to organise tickets for the Sydney test at the moment. It's not quite the same since they banned the 'Beer Wenches' though 😉
Still back to the game. If Anderson is fit and can bowl England do have a chance but I think Australia are strong favourites now. Finn should be nowhere near the ball at this stage. He has been utter rubbish!

Yeah I will do mate. I'm probably spending some time in St Kilda for a couple of days so trying to match up the dates. The MCG is a special place - I saw Warnies last test there.
I'm properly nervous. My arse has gone.
I heard that in the replay!
I'm sure I heard a knock on the replay.
Yesssssss!
