*Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

[Burgey]

"George Davis is innocent" is all I've got to say

Comment of the Test imo. Quality

 

[Burgey]

Would still take a fit Anderson over Siddle or Hilfy, yeah....

Clark though. Jeez thank **** he's not been in since the start. I presumed he must have gone into decline or something but that **** can still bowl like magic.

AWTAz.

 

[Uppercut]

Just looking through the thread. Only Stuart Broad could take six wickets, outbowling the rest of his team by a country mile, and still get more abuse than everyone else.

When was the last time England lost without scoring a half-century?

Haha, thought that myself. But pointless commenting on it, imo. Damned if he does, and damned if he doesnt.

Probably needs to cut his hair, grow a beard, and get some tattoos to get anywhere on CW.

Ouch. Good point.

Game is gone, but hope England still fight it out tomorrow for as long as possible. Nothing left now but to try and pick up some scraps of pride.

Australia are well placed here. Can hopefully go on for the win.

 

[Johnners]

Mitch!

So awesome that he's finally got things right, bloke is a deadset weapon when he's on song.

Awful decision they're saying on TMS

It wasn't a terrible decision, hard to pick up the inside edge. If Bopara wanted to complain about it he should have hit it harder

Disappointed I went to bed early now, and great to see Johnson bowling well to pick up 3. Really happy he has got some form back.

 

[Uppercut]

Probably couldn't stomach the thought of having to watch him bat for more than one delivery.

 

[Son Of Coco]

So if it's almost impossible to tell the doubt goes to the batsman, yeah? Or should.

Not if it's that difficult that the umpire didn't actually pick up the inside edge.

 

[Johnners]

Thought it was an inside edge in real-time tbh, Rauf should have picked it up.

I think you're right. And let's face it, it's a much better way to go than a soft prod to gully.

There's possibly a spot up for grabs on the elite panel

 

[Johnners]

DWTA, too many awesome umpires about these days.

You're right, but I'm sure they can squeeze in a few more just in case Rudi or one of the others is feeling slightly off their game.

@ England.
Even bigger @ Broad getting 6 wickets.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Good stuff England. Showing some ticker etc.

 

[FBU]

@ England.
Even bigger @ Broad getting 6 wickets.

His other 5fer was in Jamaica and then we were bowled out for 51.

Was a bit sick yesterday so couldn't post during the game, but seriously the last two days have been beyond my wildest dreams, it was so awesome to see Hilfy and Mitch rip through the English line-up in the last 30-40 minutes of the day.

Especially happy for Mitch, the lad has had a lot of **** said about him by various people in the recent weeks, but what a way for him to silence his critics, it was just ****ing unplayable spell from him yesterday, and that is the kind of spell, every Australian fan has been waiting for.

Anyways, who would be your MOTM in this game, if Mitch takes a few more poles, then obviously he becomes a front-runner, but still my choice would be Norfy, his century was just a brilliant test knock, but his catch too on day 1 was extraordinary, I think that catch really lifted the team, and we haven't looked back in this test since then.

That's just an Aussie ploy to ensure that he plays at the Oval...

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Johnson's gradual comeback over the last two matches has been great to watch. His spell last night just before stumps was reminiscent of South Africa.
