5th Test at The Oval, London

[flibbertyjibber]

Warne sounds like he'd rather be somewhere else

Probably got the hookers lined up for tonight.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

His first innings knock is why we are in a position where he can 'downhill ski'. Would it kill you to give the guy some credit?

I said he is playing a nice innings you prick. Anyone coming in when you have a lead of 250+ gets the same comment.

How did the Trannies get on?

 

[vcs]

Buttler's played some pretty cover drives today.

 

[zaremba]

Catch!

Bit uncalled for that, whatever

 

[wpdavid]

Sounds like a spectacular effort

 

[NUFAN]

Oh thats magic, great catch.

 

[vcs]

Brilliant catch.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Been some ridiculous catches in this series and some woeful drops too. All been a bit bizarre really.

Whoah fella. Let's calm it down. "Downhill skiing" - a pretty new expression to me - does seem a bit dismissive even if that's not what you intended.

 

[trundler]

Well holy ****. You can sense a Smith special..

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Oh well he missed the 50 anyway.

 

[zaremba]

And another great catch. Anything Smith can do...

 

[wpdavid]

Another good catch, but is it unreasonable to expect England to actually bat their opponents out of the game?

 

[Spark]

Would have been nice to catch like this on Thursday...

 

[trundler]

Reminded me of Ponting.

Another!

 

[vcs]

England leaving the door open a bit here. Need to push it to 400.

 

[zaremba]

Not a big fan of either celebration, TBH, but the disgraced former captain's shrug is probably the more irritating of the two.

There’s still a chance they could bat a full day, which is a start.

 

[GIMH]

If they didn't have Smith then I'd have been comfortable once we went past 300

As it is we should be okay but you just never know
