#1 I probably shouldn't deign this with a comment, but there is no such thing as extra innings in cricket. Both teams bat untill all their players are out (twice) or until they run out of time (5 days in a Test Match) or overs (in a limited overs game).

Cricket is a big deal over here and Australia/England is the traditional grudge match. I think someone had a few too many adult beverages celebrating Australia's win in the first Test, which was before lunch.

I'm reminded of one of my favourite bumper stickers -

Beer, not just for breakfast

#4 I know Foster's is Australian for beer, but what's Australian for mushrooms?

#5 This guy(?) was on something a lot stronger than mushrooms, TU. I'd estimate LSD, or maybe too much crystal meth. I understand that crap can turn your mind to jelly.
