*Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

[dermo]

Clearly Cook took the new ball so Jimmy could do some repair work on his reputation by knocking over a couple of average tailenders.

a regular starc

Ryan Harris giving the Aussies the advantage here. Will need to set minimum 250 on this pitch, as unless its cloudy it is fine to chase on.

 

[Spark]

Shot!

 

[Burgey]

Well bowled Broady.

Crazy thing is that Siddle will walk out to bat ahead of Harris again in the second innings.

 

[Maximas]

Nah he really never was. He's always been a stone waller who has the potential to hang around every now and again, but rarely.

used to to make the top order look pretty silly when he made runs on greentops iirc, Hobart against NZ he top scored for instance

 

[Flametree]

If Harris's knees every force him to give up bowling, can he be played as a specialist batsman?

 

[Swingpanzee]

What the ****?

 

[91Jmay]

Broad doing his standard job of bowling utter gash to tailenders.

 

[Burgey]

Haha, paying that

The Thick of It, Series Two, Episode One, Scene One.

 

[TT Boy]

Back to life, back to reality.

 

[Swingpanzee]

What a swing.

the crazy thing is you are spending any time bothering about it

 

[Top_Cat]

Harris has a Test ton in him if ever given the opportunity. Much better bat than he's shown in his Test and FC career. One of the hardest workers in the nets.

 

[morgieb]

This is good stuff from Ryano.

 

[Johann]

We are utter **** at taking the last wicket. It's like some weird mental block we seem to get

 

[Johann]

Already a useful lead

Really, really don't think you'll have too many issues with Bird.
