Lol@Warner's keeping. Lyon first ball stumping missed by miles. Poor bugger!

Smith is the heir apparent now, isn't he?

Yeah but catches down leg off Starc you tool!

Matty76 · Oct 31, 2014

...and becomes one of those annoying anomalies for statisticians' fielding records: "caught 1 as wicketkeeper"

smith for sure. it was warner but then he punched joe root

Wickets thrown away last night. Have to say, may have been hasty in judging M Marsh's batting credentials. Should have had a ton but alas no.

Aiden225 · Nov 2, 2014

Marsh threw his wicket away along with Johnson, siddle, Warner & Maxwell

Clarke Lyon got good balls.

Marsh batted great but I think a rush of blood to the head cost him a hundred.

Always the second innings to make up for the mistakes that have been made

Update on SA VS QLD Shield Game:
Runs runs runs so far.
Queensland scored 443 for 8 (Declared) with Nick Stevens scoring 158 and Chris Hartley with 142*
Chadd Sayers took 3/47 of 27 overs (including a Hatrick)
In reply South Australia made 368 for 4 (Declared) with Ferguson making 100* and Cooper, Head & Mcdonald all notching up half centuries.
Jason Floros the only bowler to take wickets for the bulls with 4/85 off 27.3 overs
Currently Queensland are 2/92 late in day 3 with Joe Burns 62* and Chadd Sayers taking the wickets.

The game is almost destined for a draw with the wicket at Adelaide Oval looking like a road and the bowlers struggling to take wickets at regular intervals.

Update on VIC VS NSW Shield game:
Victoria won the toss and sent NSW in.
NSW managed 366 All-out from 120.5 Overs.
Nevill top scoring with 87 and Roher, Patterson & Henry all notching up half centuries. A noticeable 43* from Josh Hazelwood coming in at number 11.
Scott Boland the key destroyer for the Victorians with 6/67 from 28 Overs.

In reply the Victorians eased their way to 5/507 (Decleared) from 122 Overs.
With David Hussey top scoring with 129 and both Daniel Christian and Peter Hanscomb notching up Centuries and finishing not out.
Sandhu finished with 3/96 from 28 overs.

Currently NSW are 1/99 from 38 Overs.
With Ryan Carters on 56*
Hastings the only wicket taker so far.

This game will probably end in a draw also with it being late on day 3 and NSW still behind in runs.
Unless a heap of wickets fall really quickly this game is likely to end in a draw.

Update on WA VS TAS Shield Game:
Tasmania won the toss and elected to bat first at the Wacca.
The Tasmanians were bowled out for 205 within the the first 90 overs of the game.

Currently in the second session on the third day.

i like the new scoring system for the domestic games, makes it more interesting.

checked out the QLD vs SA game on my phone yesterday than switched to laptop and hooked it up to the tv and was great picture quality.

pity you cant really tell the games are on, all ive seen is big bash ads.... miss the old days

GoTheFat · Nov 2, 2014

Bit of ownage going on in the Aus Pak Test.....
Smitty's just been hit for a tennis score in an over: 1-6, 6-4, 6-0!!!
Now 500 runs behind; this will be a deep hole for the Aussies to dig themselves out of, and Misbah's teeing off!!

Aiden225 · Nov 2, 2014

Can't remember seeing three different wicketkeepers for the same team in a match.
First haddin then Warner now Maxwell

Matty76 · Nov 2, 2014

Misbah-ul-Haq enters the Test cricket record books: Fastest half-century in Tests (balls faced) and now the equal-fastest century in Tests (balls faced), alongside the great I.V.A Richards.

It has been a complete and utter annihilation today, Pakistan declare with Azhar Ali's century being posted - that's back-to-back centuries for him in this Test. Misbah and Azhar become the second pair of batsmen since Ian and Greg Chappell to make centuries in each innings of the same Test.

Australia now need the small matter of 603 to win. I think we shall probably get them for the loss of three wickets....

GoTheFat · Nov 2, 2014

Phew, that was a close thing...thought King Viv might have lost his record - very worried for a little while there; Misbah's had a day out that's for sure. Pretty good for someone who's over 40. Now we just need 603 to win!!!

The Mad Hatter · Nov 2, 2014

And dropped 2nd ball on 0 (by Siddle, off Smith). LOL!!!

Aiden225 · Nov 3, 2014

Chadd Sayers is ripping through QLD.
He has 9 wickets in the match.
Theirs still 3 wickets to take.
He currently has 6 in the second innings after a hatrick in the first innings.

He should Be in the mind of the selectors for the India series.
Had a great 3 years in the domestic scene

Aiden225 · Nov 3, 2014

SA require 228 from 81 overs.

South Australia in the box seat after destroying the Queensland batting line up early on day 4.

Matty76 · Nov 3, 2014

@Aiden225 loving the updated match reports!! Amazing that a team like Queensland could lose 8/22.
