*Official* 3rd Test at Edgbaston

[King Pietersen]

That was a lovely straight drive from Lyon. Looks so much more compact than Hazlewood.

 

[Swingpanzee]

lyon creamed that one

And that one was a cracking off-drive. Lyon can bat.

He can so stop ****ing slogging

 

[Swingpanzee]

**** me

As predicted

 

[morgieb]

I'd say it's probably about 20 short of being interesting.

Nope

Haze and Lyon showed no inclination to hang around so he had a swing

Thanks mate. Still not done it, but only played once in the last 3 or so weeks, been so busy, got a big house move coming up so been getting stuff ready for that. Best score still 86, had 3 of them frustratingly, one of them included a 9 as well. Coach thinks I should do it easy though. Going away for 2 weeks golf in Spain soon, so hoping to break it then.

Yeah, your swing looks alright. Maybe reset your goal to 82 to get that number out of your head? Golf in Spain sounds like a tough way to spend some time too. I caddied for a mate over that way about 13 years ago, some beautiful courses.

Yeah I expect England to lose a few wickets, but it probably would've required a lead of 150+ to give Australia a sniff at victory. As it stands England will get home, albeit I expect with a bit of skin off their backs.

 

[Top_Cat]

This innings has a few early wickets followed by a Root 50 to take the win written all over it.

 

[Howe_zat]

Lyth needs a not out here like I need a piss

 

[harsh.ag]

Can't make fun of WW now now that the new WW ain't a ****

 

[WalkingWicket]

At least two down by lunch.

EDIT: Who was the old WW?

 

[Zinzan]

121 is one of those funny sort of low scores. Australia paying $9, England $1.05

Yeah, I agree with this. And have been agreeing with a lot of your posts for the past 12 months when I happen upon them. Before the inning started I said 150 will give Aussie a sniff.

Thanks, it's getting there. Made some more changes, particularly to my driver swing, and now getting it out there a decent distance, clocked one at 326 yards with GAME Golf the other week which was nice. Not really too bothered about the goal now though, just enjoying playing. If I get there, I get there, but not putting any pressure on. Need to start actually practising if I'm going to have a chance of some decent golf in Spain though. Amazing courses in Spain. Playing Alcaidesa Links while we're out there, which looks incredible. Can't wait!
