*Official* First Test at Trent Bridge

[dermo]

the look on patto when he took his baggy, what a man he is

 

[Spark]

Pattinson has been fairly innocuous this innings.

Looked very dangerous before lunch.

 

[GIMH]

I was driving home when Broad edged it. Boycott was in stitches.

Pattinson quite the brat isn't he. Great to see.

What a partnership.

got a feeling there'll be at least one terrible article written about Dar..........

'agar-stly day for dar'

 

[Burgey]

Broad does look the goods rocking the Linda Evans shoulder pads.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Pattinson seems to be permanently sporting the bemused and angry countenance of a plumber who's been asked to calculate his own tax return after being told scratching his arse isn't a deductable business expense.

 

[Maximas]

incredible batting from these two, matchwinning innings from Bell I feel, pitch does look pretty decent for batting though.

 

[Burgey]

Good day's play again. England in front now but a good bowling effort from our blokes on a pretty unresponsive pitch.

Agar's stamina is very good for a such a young bloke.

 

[dermo]

Cummins to knock them over tomorrow morning then hit the winning runs imo

Looks one for the ages, the boy. Total sweetheart too.

Has a real hint of Tuffers about his action, IMHO. Not so much his batting tho, but.

Ballsy call from Bouf that's been vindicated.

 

[Burgey]

Yeah there is a bit of Tuffers about him.

He's also a bit better in the field on evidence to date

I love how it was Chris Broad who gave Ramdin his ban, with a quote I can't really remember but something along the lines of wanting to make people think twice before cheating, should've probably taught that lesson to your son instead of Ramdin...
Ramdin got banned for two matches, I wonder if Stuart will... hmmmm

 

[jan]

Now I maybe get it why some people do not like Broad.
Good to see Ugly Ian is doing well. Expected more wickets from Pattison.

 

[Cabinet96]

Really pleased the two at the crease batted the way they did today. The catch will obviously be the talking point, but this is the sort of innings England fans have been crying out for from Broad for a while. The guy can clearly bat, he just needs to play more innings like this when he bats properly and doesn't slog everything.

Australia when it wakes up this morning:

Because the two incidents were the same thing and therefore comparable.

Looking forward to hearing Michael "One Hand One Bounce" Clarke's verdict...

 

[GIMH]

There are two people accountable for the Broad decision, Dar and Clarke. There's no moral difference between not walking to that and a tiny edge, IMO.

Edit - Clarke isn't accountable for that decision, that's poorly worded.
