The ball is doing nothing and yet our batsmen are struggling to get the ball away. I wonder why? Oh yes, because their bowlers are bowling to the field. Harmison take note.
Why do commentators consistantly come out with such toss remarks as 'its impossible for us to lose or he looks certain to make a century' and the jackass to get caught out the next shot?? Just keep you're mouth shut FCS!
Strauss is looking quite poor at the moment, he seems to be having stupid lapses in concentration. On this pictch it's going to take a mistake from the batsman to take a wicket, rather than a decent ball. All the bowlers can do is keep putting it in the right areas and hope for a mistake, will our lot be able to do that?
