Lol. It's a Monty isn't it?

FMD nearly

 

[hazsa19]

Good thing it smashed his thumb

 

[Burgey]

That stood up plenty.

Well played Eddie. Making it interesting for when Watson comes back.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Uh no, they move it into the right-hander.

No, they bowl scrambled outswingers, so only occaisionally jag it back. With Sharma, he's trying to move it in every ball. Same with Ntini, as someone else mentioned.

Imagine being Cowan and all the attendant emotions with getting your first Test 50 in your first Test and then a bloke who's got 58 of them + 39 tons coming down the wicket saying well played. Get the feeling Ponting would get a kick out of it too.

Best day evar.

 

[Burgey]

Brilliantly played Ed. Katmanesque??

Very. Has the little shuffle on the crease too, but it's just not so pronounced towards off stump.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Played, Cowan. Kid's got discipline.

Morkel, Flintoff and Sharma are all very different bowlers. Ntini too.

 

[Cevno]

Ntini got him with some jaffas, but Ponting likes facing him the most iirc.

Sharma has got him with Jaffas too.

Pretty sure i remember Ntini troubling him bowling just short of good length with the ball coming in to him a few times. He usually as a result ends up getting out to the one that holds its line when it is a bouncy track.

By occasionally I think you mean most of the time. They both deck it into the right hander and away from the left hander.

Agree to some extent. You'd have to say that Flintoff and Morkel would be fairly similar, as with Sharma and Ntini though, imo.

He used to smash Ntini around good.

Not at all, if anything Flintoff and Ntini are the most similar due to being so chest on, but all are quite different in terms of where they release the ball and how they deliver it IMO.

 

[hazsa19]

I couldn't be more right about Cowan's poor leg side play

 

[Burgey]

That leading edge really shows the pitch is slow and stopping a little.

Wasn't referring to their bowling actions, more how their stock deliveries behave.
