*Official* Second Test at Lord's

[Spikey]

so that's like three times already

 

[91Jmay]

It's one of those where there's a bit of doubt over three things: the line, the height and whether he's hit it. I really wouldn't expect any umpire to give those but if one did, it'd stand.

Yeah thats the slight grey area for me with DRS when all three are tight, suppose though tight LBWs are allowed. Don't all have to be nailing middle. Would be nice if the 3rd ump could say to him, you're decision can stand but did you know it was amber on both in line and hitting wickets. Maybe might make a few umps change there mind.

Gut feeling is it will be Broad who gets the wickets today not Jimmy.

Not backing Bresnan to take a few then? Me neither.

 

[Expressway76]

I wonder if Twatto knows what his nickname is universally amongst cricket fans?

Would have backed Finn to do ok with his extra pace and bounce. Shame he got dropped to play the guy with the dreadful record at the ground.

 

[uvelocity]

588 to go

Was seriously surprised by him being dropped. Yes he was poor at times but he also had patches of form and he has home field advantage.

 

[Daemon]

Reckon he'll bowl pies

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Got a feeling they'll target Bresnan.

Makes sense. If he doesn't do a decent containing job we're in trouble, especially if Swann isn't 100%.

What speed is he bowling so far?

86 - Since the 2010/11 Ashes, @StuartBroad8 has made 86 LBW appeals, the most by any seam bowler. Herath's 157 is the most overall. Enquire.

hahahahahahha

Low 80s

 

[Daemon]

Where the **** did he pull that stat out from

 

[social]

Ball looks pretty beaten up considering that it'd only 8 overs old

 

[Ruckus]

ball has already stopped doing much. Really should be able to get a good total here, bloody waste if we dont.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

That back foot drive from Watson was gorgeous. Love watching him bat when the ball is coming on.

 

[morgieb]

Ooh good save there.

Watto looking ominous.

 

[Maximas]

classic Broad fielding, would have lost his **** if he was bowling...

 

[Ruckus]

outfield has def slowed a little though.

 

[MW1304]

Oh dear this is a sign of what's to come. Wicket before lunch needed.
