2nd npower test Lords 16th-21st july

[Paxton Dazo]

Brilliant, not only was the catch to dismiss Hughes highly debatable, but the ball that got Katich out should have been called a no-ball.

If there's one thing worse than getting out, it's getting out when you know you shouldn't have been given.

Unlucky, Ricky

That's what I like to hear.

Can you imagine if there's a repeat of Edgbaston, 2005? Let get another 200 or so, today. 8 down. Then the 9th and 10th wicket put on a record partneship and (nearly) win them the game?

Or not.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

The Aussies have a stall set out for them. They cannot possibly "lose" this match. The options are:-

1. They win;
2. They draw;
3. They were cheated out of a win.

Who says it's the poms who whinge?

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Well on the one hand, it would be a lot less nervewracking if we could just knock them all over today and finish the game off.

But on the other, I have tomorrow off, and on the off chance I might be able to blag a ticket for Lord's, I wouldn't necessarily mind it lasting another day.

Anyone know what the score is with tickets? Do they sell out all five days?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Edna - I've ALWAYS found it possible to get into test matches at Lords by just turning up and hanging around outside the gates, begging a ticket off someone who is leaving early, because they're only there for the hospitality lunch.

Mind you ... even I'm too old to remember the last day of a Lord's test match when we beat the Aussies. So I can't guarantee that this will work tomorrow.

Shane Warne isn't happy on Sky Sports!

Saying, if Boparas' was 'Reviewed' why wasn't Hughes'?

Two bob ©unt.

It was probably three & fourpence to get in back then and no ladies without hats

Rolf Harris on TMS

indeed. Rolf was one of my childhood heroes.

Now where's the wobbleboard smiley when you need one?

indeed. Rolf is a true television legend.

Now where's the wobbleboard smiley when you need one?

David Mitchell yesterday talking about the fury of Ponting was genius as well

Isnt it a valid point though?

Rolf describing to Aggers how to play the didgeridoo

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

try it with water at home, if you have drown you have done it wrong.

He comes accross as a genuinely a nice bloke.

Harmisons opening spell at Lords, 2005.

OH DEEP JOY

Pontings stumps falling over

78/3

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

bye bye ****

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Almost a carbon copy of the shot I played yesterday. Sadly, I was on 16 at the time as opposed to 38.

MASSIVE wicket for Broad and England. :yahoo:

 

[Barrel of Fun]

stuart f***ing broad just not test quailty

2nd youngest player (behind Botham) to reach 50 test wickets for England. Granted, he had a bit of a rough spell (the time you are referring to him), but he shows signs of quality and certainly has time on his side to improve.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Big innings from Michael Clarke coming up?

 

[dougdeep]

105/3

 

[pasty]

Another wicket before tea please.

That'll keep us on course; 2 wickets per session = England 1 up in the series.
