[topbanana36]

Gotta love the way England are playing come on lets finish it today.

Would it be worth trying a couple of overs from Trott or Pietersen ?

 

[BensGrandad]

Another wicket needed to stop any form of partnership establishing

That's a novel way of getting Swann out of the attack.

A cracking bit of field placing from Cook there for Clarke's wicket.

 

[big nuts]

Joe Root Englands premier all-rounder! Could bowl a lot more at Old Trafford if it's a bunsen like predicted.

According to Sky this morning, he won't be taking part in the rest of the game, because of a thigh strain. I fell asleep at 11am though, so maybe the situations changed??

This is mental. If I was an Australian I would be embarrassed by their joke of a team

 

[BensGrandad]

136 - 6 should be all over tonight.

 

[banjo]

136-6

 

[Albion Robster]

Looks like my fifth day ticket will be refunded...

It's a feeling us English should remember pretty well.

So hotspot doesn't work then.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I actually thought Lloyd was wrong to say there was nothing on hotspot - I thought I saw a faint white spot - and I thought Holding was wrong when he said the noise on Snicko was after the ball had passed the bat. Cook went for the review straight away. Out I reckon.

Agreed, agreed & agreed.

Agreed, agreed & agreed.

And agreed. Still shouldn't have turned over the decision though, imo.....

Well left.
