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.

Our review identified changes needed to be made and, in Stephen, we have a coach who has a reputation for demanding the highest standards.
I want them both to be thrown out of the tournament for doping offenses and a hastily organised SL v Bangladesh replacement semi to be organised before Sunday.

Sheesh I dunno what I'd do if I was Clarke. If you bring on Maxwell or Watson you run the risk off letting these guys get set, but you can't just bowl out the strike bowlers this early... When do you bring on the 4th/5th change bowlers? I think I'd bring Starc on for Hazlewood and try to keep them restricted at one end and bring Maxwell on at the other who they'll try to get after...

When Johnson is running in, he looks like a sprite from a third-rate Master System game.

Not only does Mitchell Johnson have a natural game, he also has a natural angle and a natural action.

Holy poo poo when did Starc figure out how to bowl these unplayable stock balls?

Also the commentators were talking up hitting a six off a "charged up johnson" bowling "145+". Wasnt it a ~~128k slower ball??

I someone hits you for six and then you bowl him next ball with a peach, yeah. Makes up for Starc not getting the ball to swing much.

gently caress pitching it up Starc, just keep bowling those back of a length balls that bounce chest high.

I just want Watson to get the wicket of Vettori, do one of his obnoxious send offs while thrusting his crotch in his face, then watch this thread burn to the ground
