Adams being diplomatic "a close LBW turned down". IMO it was so clearly out that it wasn't close at all.

Yeah, thought that. Maybe he's been reading the forum and is trying to avoid having the award in his name?

I probably enjoy watching him more in ODIs than Tests admittedly. Times his innings wonderfully in that form of the game.

I don't mean to be harsh but if he gets these next 3 runs, I don't think I've ever seen a worse Test 50.

Oi Rob, is this the change of action from Collymore you were alluding to yesterday?

Yeah, he's bowled quite a few today that look more side-on than normal, however not as exaggerated as in his second spell yesterday when he appeared to have a different action altogether for some balls.

Daym. :@ Wish I'd seen it yesterday, there's little I find more fascinating than a change of action, never better than when it's complete.

And the ball seems to have stopped swinging now... EDIT apart from when it's being SWUNG down leg.

Yeah, was an ironic gesture in response to ironic applause. I seem to remember Nuwan Zoysa doffing his cap when a crowd cheered him ironically a few years ago

Ross Taylor raised his bat when he made contact with a ball from Malinga in the WC semi-final.

Warne doffed his cap in the 2005 Ashes when 100 was brought up off his bowling I think.

Haha, good one. That recalls a time when Taylor Dent - that renowned no-use-at-returns man - got a return from Wayne Arthurs (who'd won something like 6 consecutive serve games to love) not only into court, but as a winner, and legged it around his side of the court exchanging high-fives with about 50 crowd members.

I strugged to believe what I was seeing at the time, TBH.
