David Warner's moustache is hilarious.

ch9 have the on-strike batsman's score graphics the wrong way around. i yearn for the little asterisk

 

[Furball]

That has to be at least a smokey in any Worst Five Wicket Haul Watched With Own Eyes competition

McGrath, Old Trafford 2005

You might be done over by him coming in at 10 (ahead of someone who can't even bat ATM) and his back going.

Yeah these are the risks. If he got his 10 innings in and was never stranded he'd almost definitely clear it, but fitness, batting position and lack of a cemented spot are why the mark is so low.

I swear I've only heard Healy, Taylor, Nicholas, Lloyd and Vaughan this series. Odd.

Jeez that's concerning.

I didn't notice any series bets, I guess I don't have a patience to wait that long. I bet on Broad 10.5+ today - was pleased with myself when Voges looked like he had caught him on 11..

 

[Spark]

I thought a lot of the crap was wide and crap enough to avoid going for runs too. obviously not in every case.

Down leg too, which is often hard to lay a bat on.

Smudge, Jack and Shady ftw.

 

[Furball]

430 is par or above on about any pitch...but I reckon Australia will score more than that

Let's be honest though, you'd be posting about how badly England had done if we'd stuck 1,000 on the board.

Good speeds here.

[Furball]

That's definitely out. Appaling decision.

edit: or not.

 

[WalkingWicket]

Nah, don't think that's out.

Yeah I think he nicked it first?

 

[morgieb]

Jesus Broad's getting it to hoop like a banana.

 

[Swingpanzee]

that could be out

 

[Riggins]

umpires call on the pitching spot for me

 

[ajdude]

That's definitely out. Appealing decision.

i can see the appeal in it. actually that's pitched outside leg on first replay imo

and bat

 

[Swingpanzee]

phew

 

[Riggins]

dead

he waved it off before he got told to rock n' roll too. madness.

 

[Cabinet96]
