Bugger, I've only just tuned in - missed the whole drama!

Starc with 3 for fuck all after tea dramatic enough?

@NTA said in Aussie Cricket:

Starc might have something to say in these conditions if the clouds stay

Indeed!
Takes 3 wickets in fuck all balls

There really is fuck all you can do when a full ball travelling at 147 seams away half a bat width

Fucking glorious to watch... If you're not the poor fluffybunny on the end of the fisting

It's nearly my favourite thing in sport

In terms of cricket, I find it hard to pick between Starc and his elegant swing attack making people look stupid, and Jonson's sheer fucking brutality making blokes shit themselves.

Hazlewood now getting movement

Michael Clarke's inability to say the "L" sounds in "brilliant" means he really should shelve it.

Just ducked out to get tea, I seem to be the sedate influence today on no wickets falling while I watch...

Yup, our Nick looks a natural does he not?

I'm sure the people in your village find you funny, @Virgil - just remember, they're laughing AT you, not WITH you.

It is only a small village.

THE HOFF!!!! Amla Gooooooooone short of 50

[Donsteppa]

End of day one: South Africa with twice the runs for half the wickets.

[NTA]

But those wickets are proportional to the runs a lot of the time.

Get de Kock out, get the little bloke fined for scratching up the pitch with his boot, and we're into the tail.

Fresh morning in Hobart and we could be looking at a deficit only just over 150.

[No Quarter]

Yeah, SA in the box seat but Aus have clawed their way back into it with 5 wickets. Morning session tomorrow extremely important, if they can restrict the lead below 150 then they will be batting again when the pitch is at its best and could potentially set a decent target.
