*Official* Third Test at Old Trafford

[Spark]

Oh **** off

 

[Cabinet96]

Not really been a great day for Australia so far. Strange stuff.

 

[Maximas]

well if we don't declare now...

 

[GIMH]

I don't say this often but I'm with Clarke here

 

[MW1304]

That's a joke.

 

[Pothas]

Yeah this is poor.

 

[Spikey]

declare now pls

 

[Uppercut]

What the hell, why hasn't he declared?

 

[Swingpanzee]

Either way if it's a draw Australia may get quite some flak for whatever they did.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Outrageous.

 

[Stapel]

Play stopped by bad light, while the flood lights are on. Just when you think umpires have sunk to the lowest level possible, they prove otherwise...... It's hard to keep up the general idea of respect for umpires, when top level umpires do just anything wrong......

 

[MW1304]

The worst thing is that they've now set a benchmark. If it doesn't get better on the meter, they have no justification for coming back on.

 

[Furball]

****ing Erasmus. Prick.

 

[Garson007]

Clarke will have to come back tomorrow to score his century.

 

[L Trumper]

Either way if it's a draw Australia may get quite some flak for whatever they did.

why they were scoring at 5 an over. leading by 330. can't realistically declare less than 350 with 120 overs to go.

 

[TumTum]

****ing hell Clarke, should have declared at 300....

 

[Furball]

Where has Clarke's reputation as this uber aggressive captain come from btw?

Some of his declarations in the past have been crazy early

 

[Riggins]

he often declares way earlier than you think he would in the first innings, now that I think about it I don't think I can even remember him setting a 4th innings target.
