***Official*** Australia in England (The Ashes)

[Slow Love™]

That show, under the grandstand is so funny

Really? Abbott just looks so panicky throughout to me, and I spend half the time cringing - this week, he was drenched in panicky sweat.

I think I've seen funnier episodes of "Diagnosis Murder".

how is the weather?

how is the weather?

Pretty pooey to be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if they go off again in the next half an hour, it's what the forecasters predicted in terms of patchy rain which equals on-off cricket.

 

[honestbharani]

well, that looks to be tough on Australia. And if it is cloudy, it is supposed to help some swing too, isn't it?

 

[Slow Love™]

Good on you, JL - great to see him come good here, and 7000 runs in tests too.

I had hoped for big things from him at the start of the series, and things didn't quite work out, but this could end up being a very important innings.

 

[honestbharani]

Go Langer and Hayden! Amazing partnership, even if the pitch is flat and there is no Simon Jones.

 

[PY]

Get in there Harmo.

GBH strikes!!

There is nothing wrong with Diagnosis Murder.

 

[Slow Love™]

Aaargh, dammit!

 

[The Baconator]

Interesting over so far from Harmison, wide, 4, wide, 4, no-ball, .,wicket.

 

[Jono]

What a great knock for Langer. Terrific hundred but a shocking time to get out. Really shocking.

Nice curse.

 

[Pedro Delgado]

Good show Langer.
Excellent aggressive bowling form GBH, phew we needed that.
Ahh, here come the rain.

Get in there Harmo.

GBH strikes!!

An absolutely brilliant over IMO.

Not sure what the wides were about - 2nd one didn't seem too high as Langer ducked.

Then was the no ball for his foot or a height issue?

 

[Slow Love™]

There is nothing wrong with Diagnosis Murder.

Sure, so long as you're 80 and you've found nothing on TV really hits the spot since "Murder She Wrote" got the axe.

 

[PY]

He'd already bowled his bouncer for the over supposedly.

I certainly jumped up when the bails came off. Good for England and great for Harmison. It's first time I've seen it since Lord's. Bit of anger and fire in his eyes.

Good man....

 

[honestbharani]

Go Langer and Hayden! Amazing partnership, even if the pitch is flat and there is no Simon Jones.

I see that my midas touch is at work again. I can never forget that ODI against Pak when I said "this is a good partnership" 3 or 4 times and everytime a wicket fell like right after.

 

[Slow Love™]

Nice curse.

Yeah, that was a PY special. *cries*

It is frustrating though, when the umps decide to wait until the end of an over when they've decided the conditions are too wet to play on.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Excellent aggressive bowling form GBH.

He's back, you know. He really is back, going by that last over. I don't know what did it, but suddenly he was tearing in to the crease, not jogging. If I was Ponting, I wouldn't be looking forward to going out there. If the Hurricane starts blowing, there ain't much a batsman can do - just ask the West Indies top order.
