QF WP’s First Test v Pakistan TR - live

[moa999]

And you might yet see the Aussies bat a few overs after coughmins takes a 9th.

Nope. Made it to 5.20. so Aussies won't bat

 

[QF WP]

we’ve all left early to bear the hoards -a good day for the Aussies after a slow start considering the movement in the air and off the pitch.

 

[moa999]

All over with 240 on the board with the youngster out C&b after Starc hit the edge of the bat

 

[QF WP]

Already sitting on the bus to near my home - love the free BCC buses they put on.
Have to do it all again tomorrow- it’s Henschke tomorrow. Not sure we’ll buy a Hill of Grace, maybe a Mt Edelstone.

 

[QF WP]

Woo hoo, Starc gets the last wicket in probably the last (or penultimate) over. Play over for the day. Aussies will start batting tomorrow

 

[Captain Halliday]

It was a terrific day.

Some (Ritchie Benaud) “marvellous” wine and excellent company. Plus, @QF WP does a great steak.



He’s a wonderful host and it was an honour to be his guest.

I’m sure he’ll suffer through Henschke day tomorrow!

The steak and mashed potato looks great.

 

[QF WP]

Here for the first ball and I note the difference between Channel 7 and 9 for their presenters sun safety:

Lunch:



paired with a bottle of 2015 Henschke Keyneton Euphonium Shiraz, then followed up by the 2010 in the box (which was sublime).



picking myself up one of these

 

[moa999]

A very nice even round number at lunch 0/100.

 

[CaptJCool]

A very nice no ball saves Warner

 

[moa999]

Ch7 commentary at Tea Break..
As well as the ball that had Warner not out, Pakistan bowled another 21 non-called no-balls.

 

[QF WP]

Warner gets his century


About to click over 0/200. My suggestion to my clients of 400 is looking low.

 

[QF WP]

Noooooo, Joe Burns gets bowled around his legs for 97 (I thought I was the only one who had that happen). 1/222

 

[QF WP]

Warner gets 150 and 1/305. Can’t remember a better start at the Gabba

 

[CaptJCool]

Warner’s Luck continues.... new ball clips off stump

 

[cjd600]

Warner’s Luck continues.... new ball clips off stump

The good ol' cement bails

A great day.Seems that every test Australia plays at the Gabba should have Warner and Burns as the openers.Opened 3 times at the Gabba for 593 runs.Lowest partnership 161 and 2 double century partnerships.
