Then we would have had Darren Berry instead of Gilchrist.
Also probaly wouldn’t have lost series‘s with Hadden and Wade behind the stumps .

Berry‘s your classic sportsman who got a better reputation then he deserved simply because he didn’t make it to the top , hence couldn’t fail
 
Inglis is a better keeper batsmen for mine.

The fact Inglis has been brought in as cover for Carey says he's next in line.

Green and Carey are a weakness in the middle order at the moment.

Green aint going anywhere but Carey is not safe and needs to perform.

Stokes got a reprieve with that one that hit the off stump but didn't dislodge the bail, but bizarre that Paul Reiffel gives it out. Surely he knows that the rule is that you need to dislodge the bails?

Can we have one of them? We'll have Khawaja if you guys don't want him either :)

Great performance from Bowl-and.

If I had a choice, I'd depart the pathetic Pommy team before Novax.

Thought it was given out for caught behind having heard the sound of ball on wood

I thought Reiffel thought it was LBW.

But…but… his thumb is broken. He won’t be able to play. He won’t be able to grip the bat….blah blah blah.

Oh. There’s a six.
Not only are the Poms really bad, they are also so really slooooooooow bad. 5th test must be called off.

Berry was a brilliant keeper, superb hands. Warne rates him just behind Healy, and Warne looooves Healy. Healy's fingers now point in every direction, Berry barely chipped a fingernail. But Berry averaged 21 with the bat, hence never got a look in.

Agree on Wade, disagree on Haddin.

Yet are run rate is a lot faster than the Aussies. These 2 afternoon sessions are clearly showing that are openers just *smile* the bed this morning (as usual) where they appear to be facing fireballs.
 
Good crack from Wood, not sure even Cummins thought that was out. Probably the tiniest nick you will see, maybe a leveller for the one with Stokes when the bails weren't dislodged.
