WTF? That looked like a straightforward edge!!

Well, it doesn't matter!

Yeah agree with Bumble there, shocker of an appeal.

Vaughan gone, and I'm off to uni.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Goneskis!!!!!!

Not so O'Diren.....

 

[99*]

Shocking shot.

 

[Pup Clarke]

That really was a wonderful delivery, some may criticise Vaughan for the extravagance of the shot but it really came back a long way.

Go O'Brien.

 

[Somerset]

Is he a reasonable keeper?

Hes kept in a few ODIs before, and for CD...wouldn't be worse than Rahul Dravid.

 

[Blakey]

Played completely down the wrong line.

Go O'Brien.

Yeh good delivery but bat well away from pad, I'd say Vaughan will not be impressed at his shot selection, especially given the ball before was an appeal for caught behind.

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

In that they're all beautiful???

In that I suppose there's occasional flair.

I'm still to be convinced either way TBH.

Cannot make my mind up.

Yeah after watching it again the forward defensive would have been a far better option to negotiate.

I presumed Pup Clarke's question of "Is he a reasonable keeper?" was referring to Sinclair....in which case CD.

 

[Richard]

Oh FFS, not another out-of-shape ball?

He was batting pretty extravagantly throughout his innings.

Again, the comparison with last year at Trent Bridge is there for all to see. Not least with how India's openers approached things. Obviously too complicated for our bunch of thickies.

Cook was more erroneous than over-aggressive - he was attempting a defensive stroke, and simply attempted it when a leave would've been better.

Vaughan possibly can be blamed for over-aggression.

Strauss so far has played it perfectly.

Goooooooo'Brien!!!

How many times has he been beaten playing at balls he could have left?

 

[Richard]

Cook? Lots and lots. Certainly something he needs to try and work on for mine.
