You know, this really reminds me of a game in 1999\2000 in South Africa, where BC Cooray (in the days when he was still a good Ump) refused lbw after lbw, then finally gave Hussain out on the fourth day when he'd edged it for four without ever touching the pad.
Collingwood one definately hitting, but everyone seems sure there was inside-edge, least of all Collingwood. EDIT: doesn't seem to have been an inside-edge at all. Mr Harper, a few people owe you an apology.

Can't believe that was given. Not convinced by Hawkeye on that one. Too much doubt, not out.

Remember that out Bat Before Wicket think it was Lance Klusner bowling couldn't believe he even appealed TBH. Naser Hussain could really find some strange ways of getting out. I remember him getting a few grubbers and comical run outs around that 97 - 01 period.

Don't remember that much before the winter of 2000\01, but he got more misfortune that winter than any batsman I can ever recall in 1 season.
And yeah, it was Klusener bowling in said Cooray game in 1999\2000. And coincidentally enough, Cooray's decision started a nightmare run for Hussain - which he then ended by wrongly giving him not-out twice at Kandy in March 2001.

As I siad earlier if he does that, & as long as he can take his catches & stumpings, he will definately be an improvement to the side.

I felt the LBW was actually OK, but Crowe's making a song and dance about it being well outside the context of other LBW decisions during the match. If umpires are assessing one LBW by how they've made decision during the match, that would be wrong. Judge each one on its merits.

He will. It's just frustrating that Prior ever got in Sussex's team ahead of him. Had he (Ambrose) started playing like he did last season in 2002, and never let Prior get in the Sussex side, he'd probably have been in in 2003 instead of Geraint Jones.
Pretty impressive.

Don't think we need to guess on Sidebottom and MSP, we know how they play.
Imagine Harmison would play a few shots of course, which probably means he won't last very long. *Cue him scoring 32 off 34 balls*
Jeys, Tim Ambrose's sisters ain't bad, so to speak.

Ah, that's who that was. I was wondering.A mate of mine was sitting next to them yesterday. He ensured he's got the same spot again today.
