*Official Third Test at Edgbaston

I have to say that 250ish wouldnt be a bad score to have on the board if the conditions continue to remain the way they are. Given that even Broad is getting the ball to swing, Johnson with a swinging ball could be dangerous.

"Broad's been ineffective today"...if today = the whole series then yes, yes he has!

And who's off the field for England now?
The captains could agree just to get rid of johnson and broad respectively before the start of play and play 10 v 10, the tests would be over within 4 days !!

Well deserved, Jimmeh. Great bowling. Surely couldn't get better conditions to bowl in, though?

Dangerous ?? he still has to remember what those white lines down the middle of the red thing are before he will get any swing. He hasn;t managed that all tour.

Jimmmmmmyyyyyyyyyyy

He now has the most wickets in the series and the lowest average. Stick that up your backside Nathan Hauritz and Greg Matthews. :p

I think its just sneaking through, still appears to be a fair bit of cloud around, can anyone confirm ?
Moisture content of the air is the bigger factor than pure sun, I reckon. The ground being still quite wet would make the atmosphere at ground level still quite humid. If the Aussies don't get useful swing, that's poor bowling.
