I think the first LBW for Anderson was a bit debateable as it did swing a lot, even in real time that looked like there was enough doubt that it was sliding down. The Johnson one though seemed like a fair call to me, certainly not an 'appauling decision'. I know with Hawkeye it's going over but in real time no matter how often I see it, it's out. Height didn't even cross my mind. Certainly evened up from some poor ones the other way round

What a lunch break in the pub, loads of wickets!!!!
Priors catch for NOrths wicket was unbelievable, HUssain and Willis wont be happy with that!
Johnson's time in the test team is looking bleak, if they dropped Hughes for being shit, then Johnson has to go. Depends how he bowls on this pitch this afternoon I guess

1302: LUNCH Aus 203-8
That's the end of the session - standing, bawling ovation from the Edgbaston crowd, and if the smile on Strauss's face gets any bigger he'll swallow his own ears. Anderson and Onions lead England off the field - waving to the air-punching masses. Seven wickets for 77 runs in that stunning two hours. Remarkable.
That is the best line ive seen since "Ponting has a face like a kid has just unwrapped a toaster at Christmas"

Everytime we look like we are invinsible and are going to dominate and thrash the Aussies, we do something ridiculous to spark a flurry of shitness which results in us looking like not winning a one horse race. Hopefully Bopara hasnt just started that rut!

Last wicket partnership getting a bit annoying, Freddie loosening up.
Flintoff getting some schtick on cricinfo
67.3
Flintoff to Hilfenhaus, no run, much too wide. Flintoff's travails today continue. He looks about as enthused as an asthmatic tortoise
67.2
Flintoff to Hauritz, 1 run, worked to leg
67.1
Flintoff to Hauritz, no run, touch wide and left alone
A beery, afternoon cheer greets Flintoff who's wheeled into the attack. He doesn't exactly look like he's gagging for it, to be honest.
