Would have still been out on review. Still gently caress you Finch.

webmeister: Jan 31, 2007; The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

Australia is a pretty good but fragile side. Why is this so controversial. On our day we are the best but then again I'd not be shocked if Pakistan bowled us out for 170.

Maybe in the situation Maxwell will bat sensibly to secure the match...

DROPPED AGAIN! Maxwell has hit perhaps the most ridiculous shot I have ever seen in my life, and somehow it ended up towards Sohail at third man who put it down. I'm lost for words after that shot, it was like an overhead swat/ramp/hook/sweep/goodness knows what. That answer's HBW's question, I guess.
