the final - tea day 2

Brad Hodge is looking pretty good early on, he looks like he is set for at least a 60 odd.

Nick Jewell is getting an A grade work over from Stuey Clarke.

I usually love watching Stuey Clarke work a batsmen over, but this is painful. It’s like watching a kid melt an army figure, if that army figure was a tall ex footballer.

Stuey MacGill is a pretty cluey dude, he has somehow noticed that Nick Jewell is not an umpire, and he also felt the need to tell Jewelly of this fact.

Jewell had decided to play for stumps straight after lunch, but then he got bored, hit it straight to Thornley and ran himself out.

Was a bit odd.

“Dominic Thornley, he knows what its like to play 3 pura cup finals,” Brendan Julian. I’m assuming he would, being this is his third final.

Then Future PM David Hussey came out and played like he was playing a club game, flew to 9 off 7 and then got dropped at gully by the young opener Hughes.

Hussey offcourse next over put his head down, and got in behind the line and defended.

Actually he just slapped another 4.

It’s a very tense point in the game, because 2 wickets here and NSWales are in charge, if not, these two are very adept at putting on big fast partnerships that demoralise attacks.

The fifty partnership is up off almost as many balls. The Future PM just makes things happen. Sign the petition.

Hussey is given out for no real reason at all.

Conspiracy.

Had to be, how else would Michael Clarke get out the great man.

I don’t even know why they
appealing? It wasn’t LB, it wasn’t caught, perhaps it was because he is too damn good.

One more wicket and we are in all sorts.

Hodge strolls to a Hussey inspired 50.

Worst thing about the blatantly pro NSWales decision was it means we don’t get to see Hussey V MacGill.

As I write that, the commentators are saying that krab katich was hiding MacGill from Hussey.

Little bitches.

White looks a little dodgy, but that is nothing new for him at the start.

Hodgey is looking very comfortable.

That’s tea.

2 wickets that session, and odd suicide by SOT, and a callous assassination on the Future PM.
