Yeah, and look, I'm not trying to be inflammatory, but he shouldn't have been booed. I booed Ponting when he came out to bat at Headingley last summer, but when he went to 50, I clapped him, and when he got out, clapped him even more, for a great innings.

Don't blame the Aussie fans though really as I know that as a supporter you really believe your players at times like that.

edit - should add, the whole ground applauded him, not just me
It's not a question though of believing or not - this isn't Sydney vs India where it's a he said, I said thing. It's a decision gone against you is all.

It will all depend on what Ponting said to the umpire I suppose, only Dar will be able to enlighten us I guess. WTF Siddle was involvedfor is beyond me.

Trott's all class.

Wish he'd been given out though, would like to see Ponting bat tonight. Seems fired up.

Think you are living in la la land if you expect to like every opponent.
Nothing to do with liking an opponent but respecting them. Maybe Im having a coming-of-age moment at the grand old age of 34 but having grown up holding the way Aussies play cricket on a pedesal, this series is a bit of an eye opener.

Considering the correct decision was made, he has no leg to stand on does old chimpy.

Trott is one of them, like Sidebottom when he came in in 07, and Swann I suppose, where you think, um, why weren't you picked earlier???
