Were they both on the fix or just the guy that walked?

[Chris B.]

Shaun's had a go at opening in the second innings. @NTA

@chris-b amused. 6 balls, 4 runs, 1 scoring shot.

Peak Smarsh

Aus 77/3. Mitch Marsh out - good review by Pakistan.

Hard to see Aus getting the additional 400 runs at this stage ... she should be all over, rover.

Khawaja's knee is fucked or something?

torn meniscus apparently. Could be his summer gone.

Also, 78/5. Abbas has 4/32. On subcontinent pitches... unbelievable

Not really, been Australia's Achilles heal for years, even when they had 'batsmen'
They are historically poor in Asia

Yeah - but to pace? Abbas is a medium with a small bit of pace - nothign special. But he's carving through teams like me with a piece of chocolate cake, and (like me) doing it consistently.

He's got nearly 60 wickets at aroudn 15, from 10 test matches. Outstanding figures.

@nzzp his pace variation and skidders seem to have troubled the Aussies. He’s the Indian Terry Alderman.

[No Quarter]

Probably an anger management technique he's working on - remove yourself from the situation instead of firing back. Not going to work at the top level though.

[Siam]

Fuck this guy Warner must be off the charts in the self awareness measurements

[Stockcar86]

Retired hurt (feelings)

[Donsteppa]

Mark Taylor trying a great dual role of 'yes, hard hitting review, but 'time to move on people'... nothing about to be seen here...

Is the sledge made worse by it coming from Hughes??

I reckon good on him for working out some coping strategies - but have to laugh at how 'me, me, me' this one is. Allow me to hold up the game so I can compose myself.. ffs this just paints a massive target on his back. He's not going to be able to take breaks like this during internationals, so where does that leave him?

Like @Stockcar86 said, we'll need a new scorecard graphic for retired (hurt feelings). Solid gold btw

And didn’t his mrs ( SBWs ex) say it was a disgusting comment?
Sounds like Hughes only said what 90% are thinking..
