If the Tony Abbott XI win does that mean Tony Abbott is right?

Cook should be able to get a 457 visa because we really don't have any choke artists of his calibre.

Aaaaaaand he's out for 1. At least he lasted one more ball than Piers did.

http://www.cricket.com.au/news-list/2014/1/14/prime-ministers-xi-v-england-match-report there's a live stream of the game there but why does it look like I'm watching footage from the 80's?

Umpire's surname is Grocock. I'm not very mature.

Nah, they're undefeated in their tour matches so far. Won 1 drawn 3.

Yeah, the thunder actually have a chance to win here. They will still most likely find a way to gently caress it up.

They are always in a position to win, every single match. They just manage to screw it up every time.

Lionel Richie posted:Earlier on I watched some of this BBL you all go on about, and as god as my witness I saw Luke Wright twatting it about all over the place and getting much praise for it. And suddenly I realised why so many of our trash move to Australia. They came over for the ashes series mate, they're going back home again soon

Gideon Haigh posted some stuff from Mark Boucher's book on his blog and there was an interesting bit about Channel Nine.quote:Boucher recalls a conversation from the 2008-9 South African tour in which his countryman Tony Greig divulged the Channel 9 policy of uncompromising approbation where Australian players were concerned: ‘Everything had to be positive. I asked him: ‘How can you always be positive? What happens if Ricky Ponting plays a bad shot – walks across his stumps and tries to work one through the leg side?’ He said: ‘There are easy ways to do it. You don’t always have to criticise. You can praise the bowler.’ I listened to his commentary when Ponting was out – he played across the lines and was lbw. Greigy was: ‘Ah, great bowling! He knows Ponting moves across his stumps and that shot is his strength. On another day he would have whipped that through mid-wicket for four!’

Clearly that policy is still in place, just listen to Slater suck Watson's dick constantly despite him being hot garbage

Surprise surprise the Aus vs Pak series has been shortened to 2 tests so they can fit in a one day series and a couple of 20/20s. Yay.

Going for the reverse-sweep then loving it up is always one of the more embarrassing dismissals.

I'm genuinely impressed that they remember to say "Bunnings Warehouse™ Replay" every time.

Almost as bad as listening to SEN during a footy game. Whoever that guy they interviewed during innings break was a knob... But that's hardly surprising
