Yea, that was a kamikaze shot - he'd be lucky to average 10 per dismissal playing that one.PY said:If you're going to sweep, get your leg outside leg too you muppet.

How many overs are likely to be bowled after tea? At this rate it doesn't look as though Australia will have to do much batting this evening. Can't really see the point in going along at 3-3.5 with KP and Flintoff to come - I'm sure Australia are quite happy for England to do that at the moment.

At least that is encouraging.chalky said:
It's actually quite funny when Warne yells out "catch" and you see the ball go sailing for six.

Im convinced that he is not a very naturally talented player. He is gutsy but he will be fouind out on sub continential wickets and in australia.social said:
Mark my words I know talent and he has very little.

I'm delighted with the way they are playing too - get through to the evening session, build a good platform then kick on.Slow Love™ said:I'm pretty happy at the moment with Strauss and Bell fiddling around, actually.
Ushering Pietersen and Flintoff to the crease doesn't really appeal that much.

I would put flintoff in ahead of KP, but thats just my opinion.

Top 50 from Strauss. Well batted. Has handled Lee superbly and has looked more confident against Warne as his innings has grown.

Yea, Bowden had better do some stretching exercises in the tea break. I just hope it stays sunny so there's no offer of bad light for the Aussies.PY said:

When he treated him with contempt and dispatched the worst ball of the century over point for four, then when he carted him for six.Demolition Man said:

Batting well now but, as has been the case all series, Aus had him down and out except someone forgot to catch the ball.Mister Wright said:
This really has been the difference on this tour.
Aus have given the advantage back to England on so many occasions when in good positions whilst England have been good enough to capitalise.
