*Official* Second Test at Lord's

[flibbertyjibber]

Had a phone call just before lunch and looked up to see Agar celebrating, bloody Sky showing his TB wickets. Thought we'd lost another wicket.

Huge partnership needed by these two. Has to be at least 150 to get us back in the game.

Well that was terrible. No more overs for Agar today.

Pulled a lot to the leg side early on in the first innings last test too.

Just got in after being walked round b&q this morning.

Joe Root decision was fair enough I think. Once its given out live I don't see it being overturned. Root should not be opening it was a balls decision which hopefully they will fix.

Hopefully Trott and Bell can carry on as this pitch will just get flatter and flatter as it goes on.

 

[Burgey]

Was sitting here thinking how much pressure the Poms would have been under at 3/28 had we made 15 more runs at Nottingham.

 

[Cricket Brain]

Australia will want to get a wicket in the first part of this session after lunch, as otherwise Trott and Bell could be set for a big partnership

**** yeah......we would be right in the ****. Just as well you didn't make the runs then innit.

Such an awful experience this.

 

[sphynx]

England pretty lucky there.

Trott lucky three or four times.

Almost edged it to Gully, almost edged it to second slip, could of gloved it anywhere.

Pretty streaky.

Do you think England had the rub of the green that session, or did you think the luck was shared around evenly? I can't gather from your post.

Yes or alternatively how down that Aussie change room may have been had England strolled in at 80-0 at lunch.

Yeah but that didn't happen so it never entered my mind really.

 

[King Pietersen]

Lovely shot from Trott. Looks in top form at the minute. Due a big score too. Got a lot of starts recently, but not kicked on since Wellington and bagged a ton.

 

[Cabinet96]

Outfield is so much quicker than it was against NZ. Guess that's what good weather does.

 

[Uppercut]

Not looking too good for Australia now.

 

[Tangles]

I'm also over the ****ty Slater ads. Fourex is dogs piss anyway.

 

[Woodster]

Neither did you making the 15 runs you needed at Nottingham! But I do take your point.

 

[Cabinet96]

I really enjoy watching Trott bat.

 

[BeeGee]

Very good recovery from these two. England's form batsmen.
