England v Australia - 1st Test Trent Bridge

[Country Seagull]

Get in, Cook's intelligent use of reviews has won us this game

James Anderson

That was some test match

 

[Spun Cuppa]

Thin end of the wedge with technology being brought into football? How long until it's offsides, penalties on the edge of the box etc. Not keen tbh

The correct result as two diabolical umpiring decisions (Agar stumping not given plus Trotts LBW which never was) meant they had a huge number of bonus runs while we were probably denied fifty or so.....

What a cracking match, cant wait for the next test now..well done England!

Not long to wait! Starts Thursday at Lords!

Is it possible that the umpire didn't give Haddin out before the review because England had 2 reviews left and Australia had none. I know I would have done that if I were him.

Christ, I won't be able to cope with four more Tests like this one....

Veg, this is The Ashes!

I'm so in love with you..........

Great test. Who replaces Finn? Bresnan?

Just gotta love it two weeks off can watch the Lords test as well. Thank goodness for teachers holidays.

great entertainment....shame it had to end like that but i heard Haddin's edge from behind a pillow in Perth so i don't know why the umpire didn't just give it.

Either Bresnan or Onions.

Who knows though... Finn might start again.

Nope. The only person who heard the nick was Matt Prior. We heard it from the stump microphone. If Aleem Dar had heard it he would have given it out without review.

Fabulous match. Brilliant bowling from Anderson, great catches from Cook and some excellent batting from the Aussies to get that close.

Bring on the next one.

Went from allotment to garage to get some petrol for mower and heard a news bulletin on Bright which said they had reduced the target to 63 but no mention of wickets. so was expecting an Auissie win so pleasantly suprised when got home and saw the result. Well done England

How many wickets has Chris Jordan got this year? Sussex bias but he was touted as an England or WI international not so long ago.

 

[Cecil]

Sets it up nicely for lords and yours truly has a pair of tickets for day one! Lovely jubbly!

 

[Paris]

Swann has an amusing kid

 

[Seagull kimchi]

Great entertainment - Aussies are definitely no push overs - need to be performing on all levels to get that 5-0.

The series in Oz will be really brutally exciting.

 

[Socialist Sid]

What do you lot reckon?

Play some sort of double bluff and select Finn?

He'll be raring to go, and knowing full well that those naughty Aussie's will be targeting him, it could well work.

Bresnan, Onions and Tremlett ahead of him at present, if he keeps on getting wickets who knows?
