He didn't even get a hand to that one and it was well within his range; a terrible effort.**** me dead Strauss has been abject at slip in the last year.
'Interesting' as in giving SL a three-figure lead?struggling in the slips. struggling with the willow. goes hand in hand doesn't it.
260-280 will make this a very interesting game I feel. Gonna be a test indeed for the poms batting.
I still remember the dolly he dropped off Laxman at Lords. That catch of Gilchrist at Trent Bridge in 2005 seems a distant memory now.**** me dead Strauss has been abject at slip in the last year.
If I've counted right, that's four play & misses, one drop and one landing just short in his last 3 overs. That really is a quite superb spell for naff all reward. They'll both go on and make big tons now, you'd think.And another edge drops short. Poor Jimmy, can be forgiven for feeling aggrieved he's been superb again today.
wow under 299 paying 3.40 on bet365They'll get comfortably more than 280 though.
Mathews against spin is not pretty...Mathews looks proper gash so far today.
Haha yeah I know but he's looked completely out of sorts against Anderson too.Mathews against spin is not pretty...
Need to give him some recovery time before he takes the new ball, tbf.If I've counted right, that's four play & misses, one drop and one landing just short in his last 3 overs. That really is a quite superb spell for naff all reward. They'll both go on and make big tons now, you'd think.
EDIT
And taken off????
I know he's probably knackered, but wtf?
Good job your mate "Donkey" has been dropped...Swann bowling some freebies. Rubbish.
