*Official* First Test at Swalec Stadium, Cardiff

Part of me wants eng to lead by 3 runs, send Hauritz and Siddle out to smack the winners.

Wow, amazing stuff. Really thought we'd missed our chance.

Collingwood must be gutted, played the perfect innings for the situation up to that point. If he'd just had a modicum of support from the top order it would have been a draw (could still be I suppose).

Phillip Hughes will have to come out and crack a boundry.

 

[GIMH]

I really thought that that catch was gonna be dropped. Heartbreaking. Hope we at least get a few more runs and spare the innings defeat.

 

[ripper868]

gotta be Hilfy....I know Hauritz got monty last time but gotta be hilfy.

 

[Dissector]

England have come so close. One decent knock of 30-40 up the order would have been enough to save them.

 

[superkingdave]

Jimmy> Cook? Yes imo

 

[GIMH]

never out, be realistic

 

[pasag]

Poor appealing.

 

[pskov]

Need to get a helicopter with a hosepipe to fly over the ground.

 

[ripper868]

C'mon Siddle....Finish Him.

 

[GIMH]

I blame Strauss, Cook, Pietersen & Prior. If they'd each hung round just for a little bit...

 

[Jarquis]

Every single ball is heart in the mouth.
It's spent most of today around the throat area but these last 10 minutes have made me feel seriously ill.
Having got so close, just gut wrenching.
It's still possible, just a lot more difficult now.

 

[pasag]

Yorker.....

 

[ripper868]

Panesar with style

 

[Jamee999]

Test cricket is the worst game ever ****ing invented.

 

[Adamc]

Do they lose overs if there's a change of innings or is it definitely 10 overs remaining?

 

[GIMH]

They lose overs

 

[superkingdave]

Light meters coming out...
