The SCG crowd as Mitchell Johnson comes out to bat on Day 4 of the 5th Ashes Test in Sydney. The Army pump out two of their favourite songs of the day to their favourite Australian son, Mitchell Johnson.

"He bowls to the left, he bowls to the riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, that Mitchell Johnson is bowling his shite."

"Suuuuuuuper, Super Mitch, Suuuuuuuuuuuuuper, Super Mitch, Suuuuuuuuuper, Super Mitch, Super Mitchell Johnson."

He procedes to get bowled first ball and sent off with the same reception!!!!

:lol:

Notable batsmen/bowler rivalries in Test cricket. Eye openers are Sunil Gavaskar with Michael Holding and with another england bowler though he averages high, Atherton is a poor guy being out to Ambrose and walsh 17 and 15 times. Lara out to Mcgrath 15 times in 24 matches but he averages in the 40's per wicket :thumbsup:.

Some other rivalries
Murali/M boucher 12 times
CEL Ambrose/S waugh :bow: (My fav bowl/bat) from my fav era.
Imran Khan/Sunny G (11 times)but sunny averages 50.
Mark waugh averages 35 against Ambrose but 11 against Walsh :shock:


And oh yeah Bhajji - Ponting 10 times with his avg being 22.30 :P. Dei bhajji i dare u to make it 15.

Holding-Vengsarkar is famous too and Holding spews contempt for Vengy even today.

Dilscoop to lead SL

Tillakaratne Dilshan has been appointed Sri Lanka's captain for all three formats during the upcoming tour of England in May following Kumar Sangakkara's resignation from the post after the World Cup. Sri Lanka Cricket have not yet named a vice-captain to fill the role vacated by Mahela Jayawardene because "the prospective candidates are nursing injuries, and their availability for the forthcoming tour is still in question."

Dilshan's appointment ends the speculation over whether he, or 23-year-old allrounder Angelo Mathews, would be named as Sangakkara's immediate successor. In a recent interview with ESPNcricinfo, Sangakkara had backed either player to take over the captaincy.

Dilshan, 34, has previously led Sri Lanka in two Twenty20 internationals in 2008 and 2009, and also during a five-match ODI assignment in Zimbabwe in 2010
