Yeah, but when does that ever happen with a regular attack (i.e. not two spinners)?
Happens all the time in fourth grade where I play :p

But seriously, missing overs with the extra half hour is ordinary

3 overs missed. Wonder how he'll sleep at night with the guilt.
yet took extra 32 minutes (equivalent of 8 overs). Thats definitely a fine. It's not like there were a lot of wickets today to eat away time.

You realize that if a captain is more than 5 overs behind after adjustments, he is suspensed for a game.

Whenever teams that aren't England, Australia or India play.

edit: woops misread - yeah they usually need the extra half an hour, suppose it's not too far off but they really should be getting in the 90.

Hey Maximas. Mate so happy I was wrong about Smith so so happy now if my theory in superstition worked properly Lyon get 5 for tomorrow.

"England claimed the ascendancy for the first time since the opening day of the series when their more disciplined bowling and rehabilitated fielding reduced Australia to 5-143 shortly after lunch on the opening day of the third Commonwealth Bank Ashes Test in Perth"

With all due respect, what planet was Andrew Ramsay watching the cricket from?

Yeah, agree with this. England have been doing this for quite a while now. All that time wasted in consulting each other and Broad still bangs them in the middle of the pitch, must be Ishant Sharma's long lost brother. Utterly brainless. Not only would the English have had a better chance of getting Johnson out had they pitched it up, they've also probably fired him up even more. Bresnan and Broad will get it back tomorrow...with interest.

Hope we can push this score to about 400, can see a fighting innings from Cook or a KP special in the first dig so we could do with a few extra runs. The last thing we need is England getting a first innings lead as our one-collapse-a-series is long overdue.
