Whatever it may be, as long as its Cricket related. But most importantly make sure you obey the rules and regulations which are found here: www.myps3.com.au/ And last but not least ENJOY!

The MMGN player cut off the punchline but I know what ya meant Hamzie heard that live at the time it was hilarious from the new reporter & his face was priceless like he knew he got pwned, I dislike Mark Gayston & his Cow bias.

Aiston "who knew something so small could be so impressive" Belinda "well you'd know all about that Mark" PWNED TV reporter gold lol :D

A few big names left out
Simon Katich (woah big omission here)
James Hopes
Andrew Mcdonald
Clint Mckay
Marcus North
Shaun Tait
Adam Voges

Overall great to see CA finally rebuilding our Cricket side & good to see the likes of Cummins, Khawaja & Pattinson get a gig, I still believe Nathan Lyon is our best spin option & it's only a matter of time before he gets a crack.

I've been posting in here mainly cos I can't wait for footy season to end lol.

India have hardly been playing like the #1 test nation though they've been dogshit can't they play in England or something?

Looks like England will do a Bradbury & become #1 by being the best of the duds lol, International Cricket isn't very strong at the moment Aussies, Sri Lankans, Indians, South Africans are all shithouse.

Stupid poms just when you think they couldn't get any more arogant or pigheaded :P

Yeah first time in a while we've got off to a good start against a good batting lineup.

Lets hope they don't eek out another 50 runs though we still can't figure out their mystery spinners or any spinner for that matter :P

Is Ricky Ponting playing? haven't seen him.

You watching England smash the hopeless Indians? :P

I agree though Test > T20 except when Redbacks won the big bash last year ^_^

As if David Warner isn't Watsons opening partner.

edit- good to get the win :)

Piss off 50 over AND test. Far, far too boring.

20/20 over in 3 hours. Exciting. Close. Awesome.

My boy Nathan Lyon is now apart of a very exclusive club only one of 15 in cricket history to take a wicket with his first ball in test cricket & only the 2nd ever Aussie to do so!

I told people he's destined for big things in Australian cricket I know it's only very early but imo he's Australia's best off-spinning prospect going forward.

What a way to get his 5fer with a ripper caught & bowled he's having a great debut test match, first ball in test gets a wicket & he gets a 5fer on debut (*)
