Smith is fucking light years ahead of any other batsmen in Australia at the moment. He's making it look relatively easy while the rest crumble around him.
Thanks mate...signed Stevie S.

@No-Quarter @Virgil kiss. of. death.
-
The last 25 balls = 1 run and 3 wickets
-
SA make 326 and only have to bat once. Far out.
-
Is that stupid English twat of a commentator busting for a piss? Stand still ffs.
-
Last 8 wickets fell for 32 runs. Now that's a fucking collapse - Black Caps take note!

@mariner4life said in Aussie Cricket:
did you guys see the video of Calum Ferguson's brother when Ferguson got out in the first? He'd flown back from the UK to watch his brother's debut, and the look of disgust when he ran himself out was priceless. I wonder what he thinks of the airfare now?
That fat lady, she is starting to warm up.
Reminds me of the time that a mate and I wanted to go to the Basin to see Brian Lara bat for the last time ( 2005 I think it was ) and as we were driving down from Island Bay we heard him get out on the radio so we fucked off to the pubs on Courtney Place instead.
Unlike Fergusons brother we didn't travel quite as far to be fair.

Aussie all out of 85 and 161.
SA are clearly an excellent team, but nobody should beat Australia IN Australia. Let alone with such ease.
And without their premier bowler who broke down back on day 1 of the first test.
That could be the best thing that happened to SA. -
When was the last time Oz lost a test at home in 2.5 days of cricket?
-
So OZ lost 8 for 40 this morning. Wow, especially on a pitch that was hardening out. There was something there for the bowlers no doubt - overcast, a few cracks, newish ball - but the application of some of the Aussie batsmen is simply not there.
-
Dunno if 36 overs is newish but I hear what you are saying.
A real toweling from SA.

@NTA said in Aussie Cricket:
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.
Didn't matter much in the end!!
Crikey.

Feel sorry for Smith. He seems like a decent bloke compared to the absolute douchebags that have skippered Australia in the past. From all reports, it looks like it's going to be a lean couple of years for this team as there doesn't seem to be much depth in the domestic ranks . Certainly a far cry from twenty years ago where Australia could field a second eleven that was better than every other test team in world cricket. It's hard to fathom what has happened to their systems that has led to the current state of affairs.
