Possibly, could just be a dislocated shoulder, but he'll be lucky if he bats, imho.

He wont be batting that's for sure. They put his shoulder in a sling so it must be pretty bad

Bell does the flukey 50s, Collingwood does the flukey 100s.
PS what's with the ball starting to swing now?!?

Fell on his shoulder.
Yeah. Not good at all. Here's hoping he's OK and not in too much pain.

I would say he's in quite a lot of pain till the painkillers set it

There's not really much I enjoy more than someone coming back from an injury which appeared to be threatening their career. This is one of the best examples.

Yes me too. Am chuffed for Vaughany after his last torrid 18 months, including being told he may never play again! He played today alright, and very well.
Woodster
International Captain
Why ? He may not have a strike rate of around 100, but he plays some classical shots. Apart from the one he's just edged behind!!

Daym. Would post a "now we'll see how bad Prior is", but, well...
Woodster
International Captain
Big test now for Prior, new ball, if taken, is due in a few overs, and it is swinging around now, and although a decent score is already on the board, Vaughany and co will have been looking more towards 500+. We could either be rolled for under 400 or go on and really take the game from the Windies.

He's gone now so I wont have to. He's just a bit too text-book/white-bread for me. Good technique but not much character in his batting

Pitch looks the same to me, just the ball's started to swing.
It happens. Swing is not something which is easily explained.
