Ponting did the same at Cardiff iirc.

marcus north > ben hilfenhaus

who still believes?

A smidge. Fading fast.

 

[Pothas]

Well it is starting to look a bit comfortable and whenever it has a wicket has quickly followed...

jesus christ wagner is getting some cruel karma for his lucky 4fer.

 

[ajdude]

i don't like this, martin to broad, like broad was on strike so i think southee or boult would be a better chance

marcus north > ben hilfenhaus

North>Macgill>Warne>Lyon

Question - prior is looking for singles at the end of each over. Couldn't the fielder just throw it to the boundary to keep broad on strike? Obviously not the most ethical though....

 

[straw man]

They're going nuts on the radio every second ball and I think it's a wicket and it's not

 

[_Ed_]

Oooooh.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Who'd be an umpire? Calling bat/pad/glove out of the rough... if it were me it would be not-out all the time and leaving it to DRS if they felt it had something on it.

 

[Zinzan]

Just 12 overs remaining, surely England will hang on now.

Would count as overthrows IIRC so Prior would still keep strike and get four bonus runs for it.

The fielder would be fine to let the ball roll over the rope under its own steam, though.

One wicket and it is Anderson and Monty, there is still sometihng dramatic left to happen here.

A casual 'accidental' kick maybe? It if was close the boundary.

Oh please Silentstiker would probably be predicting an England win.

Arrgggh.

No umpire in the world is going to buy that at this stage of the game.
