*Official* Third Test at Edgbaston

[BoyBrumby]

Some pull, that. Not the best ball, but MS utterly drilled it.

 

[MW1304]

He doesn't really deserve 5 after how he's bowled since the first spell. Looks like karma will prevent him from getting them, too.

 

[Jacknife]

Yes, you can see Jimmy's tiring now, dropping it short.

 

[The_roc]

Anyone know what the record last wicket stand is in test? Think India need about 400.

How doesn't he? He's had loads of edges and thick edges that's cost him runs, just because the tailenders have had a slog doesn't take anything away from how he's bowled today.

 

[BoyBrumby]

I heart Flower so much. Side about to win by an innings & 200+ and he has the expression of a chap who's just got an unexpectedly high phone bill.

You know this interlude will pain his sense of professionalism.

 

[Spark]

Yeah that'll do for Anderson, methinks.

 

[zaremba]

Oh good, Sreesanth's hit.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Hate to see a chap hurt, but Sree...c'mon. Those things in your pants are balls. Man up.

 

[Spark]

. Mean, but still. Eyes on the ball!

 

[Daemon]

Poor umpiring gets rid of Ishant. Cost us the game imo.

 

[Burgey]

That's hit Sreesanth where a normal man's chest would be.

 

[zaremba]

Shot!

 

[The_roc]

Sreesanth gets a length ball and plays it to square leg with his stomach.

 

[Prince EWS]

Refer it.

[Turbinator]

Refer it.

I would've, but ECB didn't have the balls to implement the UDRS

 

[Jacknife]

This slogging and being able to hit straight through the line, shows what a great pitch this still is and how well England have bowled on it.

 

[MW1304]

Well he was only given about 8 extra overs to nab a tailender/Dhoni to get his 5-fer and reverted to long hops and wide ones. Therefore, he doesn't deserve the 5th one.
