Ashes 2013

[GAFFA]

This series was brought forward by 12 months as the Cricket World Cup in 2015 would immediately follow the Ashes in 2014/15 and England didn't want to be out here for 6/7 months straight.

Next series is in 2015

my bad i thought it was push back

George Bailey performed as expected when you look at his First Class record.

But hey lets pick him because he scored heaps of runs on pitches in India that you could safely land a 747 on

who is watching on tv - what does the pitch look like ?

400+ wicket

I'm all for a good sledge & some good old sporting pantomime, but.....

maybe it wasn't such a good idea to boo Broad?

It's not as green as the out field, it's the rectangular shaped dirty area in the middle of the ground with some white lines at each end

Pitch looks great. Broad is bowling great. It's moving everywhere. Coupled with the repeated brain explosions it's only natural he has 4.

Thought the outfield would be a bit quicker though. We got SMASHED by rain this weekend though, so it's all new growth and still a wee bit damp. Not too humid either today so it must be drying out now

My lawn grew at least 2cm over the weekend.

I know Queensland is a pretty shit place, but seriously, watching grass grow, I've heard it all now

Typical Gabba pitch

Ball will move around first session and will flatten out as the day goes on

Shame a few of guys have batted like retards

It's pretty devastating when you mow on Tuesday, and have to mow again on Monday.
I'm never living on a corner ever again.



Rain may change things on Saturday. If not then is say def Sunday

Gotta love Dave Hughes:
@DHughesy: Great, now all the batsmen are out the Aussies should be able to start batting. #Ashes
