*Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

[Uppercut]

I understand Siddle not taking the new ball when they're looking for swing but he's pretty much perfect for these conditions with the new ball.

 

[Expressway76]

Wow serious variable bounce with those wickets.

 

[benchmark00]

Probably time to whack a pair of keeping gloves on Bairstow.

 

[Howe_zat]

It's like the world xi at one end and, er, someone reasonable at the other

 

[Johann]

Cor Bressie lad playing his shots here

Trying to get some before Harris gets him I suspect

 

[Hurricane]

This is a bit of a throw-a-way comment but just a small thing about Harris is that he doesn't react much after he beats the bat or troubles the batsman like other bowlers do. He just observes it - puts it into his memory bank and goes back to the top of his mark. He is very even keeled.

 

[Dan]

Late to the party, but what a bowler Harris is. Legend.

 

[King Pietersen]

Bresnan is such an agricultural cricketer. Looks so uncomfortable when he bats and bowls, but is surprisingly effective. What a man, like the bowling version of Paul Collingwood, just without the athleticism.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Probably time to whack a pair of keeping gloves on Bairstow.

You think he'll score more runs that way? Or the gloves'll make a jaunty hat?

 

[Tangles]

Oh everyone wants on the Harris bandwagon now.

 

[Howe_zat]

Cometh the hour
Cometh the troll

 

[Expressway76]

Oooh yeah some nice tail end runs again.

Edit: jinxed it, great bowling there.

 

[Spark]

Brutal

 

[benchmark00]

Around the wicket, thata boy, break a finger.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Haha, was just going to say go around the wicket and put one through his grille...too slow on the typing.

 

[Uppercut]

Haha brutal. That's actually an alright effort from Broad given conditions. Useful runs.

 

[grecian]

Really nasty ball that, useful 13. Similar from Swann would be nice.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Harris a level above the rest in this test, as far as the aussies are concerned.

 

[Howe_zat]

I was assured he'd be injured by now. This is poor form Aussies

 

[NUFAN]

So, so good from the QLDer Harris.
