Behind some of that glass is the air conditioned bar. I know that's where the England fans are when we play there.Bomber wrote:Batting average of 0 so far
I guess he can only improve (and at least took a wicket) :wink:
What's the lowest ever crowd to watch a test? Surely this one would be up there, when the camera scans to a crowd shot, at best it's been a couple sitting by themselves with hardly anyone else in sight.
Makes sense. Still seems like it's a ghost town (despite probably having some of the best indoor facilities going around)God is an Englishman wrote:Behind some of that glass is the air conditioned bar.

Do you think Warner will ever be allowed back in, especially if Australia cops a few bad losses?Bomber wrote:I think Australia might struggle to win a test in the next two years. Might sneak one in v India at home, but otherwise team looks very ordinary at the moment. Maybe I'm over-reacting and the return of Smith might help down the track, but one wonders how much damage has been done.
Hard to say, not being privy to all the internal "feelings" of the team are about him.ozzie owl wrote:Do you think Warner will ever be allowed back in, especially if Australia cops a few bad losses?Bomber wrote:I think Australia might struggle to win a test in the next two years.

Could say that about AO (members tents behind western stand). Usually heaps there, many won't watch a ball of the day's play (not counting tv screens around the area).God is an Englishman wrote:Seen being the appropriate word.ozzie owl wrote:Seen bigger crowds at a Div 9 SAASL match.Bomber wrote:Batting average of 0 so far

Just because you can't see them, doesn't mean they're not there.
Lucky the game is on "neutral" turf, otherwise he could have been in strife.Stitch This wrote:First Pakistani batsman to score a century against..............Pakistan

I wonder if both batsmen could have been run out by getting the ball to the other end and knocking them bails off also for the one where the 2 batsmen where standing in the middle having a chat.Bomber wrote:Seen two of the more bizzare run-outs this test. School boy stuff.
Once one batsman is out, the ball is dead, so not possible. Its not baseball. :wink:Mr Red wrote:I wonder if both batsmen could have been run out by getting the ball to the other end and knocking them bails off also for the one where the 2 batsmen where standing in the middle having a chat.Bomber wrote:Seen two of the more bizzare run-outs this test.
