Panesar`s bowling average in the Ashes - 0.0

Stop the Ashes!

Montyyyy.

EDIT: Regarding the Hayden issue. Jaques is in pretty poor form at the moment and I don't think he deserves a call up. Rogers has made runs but made them on some pretty flat wickets. I agree Hayden is on borrowed time but I've got no real idea who should replace him.

Hussey to open and Voges in the middle order...

 

[Johnners]

If hussey is moved up, Hodge has to come in if he's over his injury

 

[Merv]

What are you on about with this "what a ball" crap. It was a regular medium pace delivery that did nothing.

Langer inexplicably missed a straight one.

it's a good ball because Monty fooled Langer who was expecting a slow offie...

it looked good until they showed the reply, just a poor shot or lack of shot.

Well he shouldn't have been because everyone who's familiar with Panesar knows he's a medium pacer who lands every ball on the same spot with only 1 in 100 turning & the rest just pushed through for economy.

As opposed to Ashley Giles who really gives it a rip

Massive turner of that ball, that Ashley Giles.

lol

so how come Monty is a good *spinner* if he's a medium ?

Haha, BLE loves his cricket. Great to have you back.

Panesar has been turning it a lot for a finger-spinner on a 1st day WACA pitch. His ball to Langer was right on the money, hitting the top of off. The pressure England built up put Langer in a defensive mood, and Panesar capitalised on Langer`s poor shot.

Top cricket by England.

 

[_Ed_]

Well he shouldn't have been because everyone who's familiar with Panesar knows he's a medium pacer who lands every ball on the same spot with only 1 in 100 turning & the rest just pushed through for economy.

So since he's turned at least 3 in his first 1.1 overs, his next 293 deliveries will all be straight. Let's see if that happens.

 

[pasag]

Loving this cricket tbh.

 

[Nate]

The best thing about Monty bowling, is that he`s not fielding.

 

[Fiery]

Hussey obviously in no hurry. You just know he'll dig Aussie out of this one, as per. Freak

 

[Dravid]

I know this is late, but that was a beautiful ball by Monty to get Langer out

 

[cameeel]

Hussey's strike rate: 8.69

Great bowling pressure from England

I have a feeling he's going to make it look like they are bowling good, then just start pulling fours out of no where.

 

[Fiery]

Interesting fact. The only other time Hussey has batted at 4 for Aussie was in a one-day against South Africa in Jo'berg back in March. He scored 81. (I got that from Cricinfo Stats Guru. I'm such a geek!)
