Agreed it was a full toss but the shot by hussey off jones for 4 was quite magnificent.

As said before Simon Jones can't bowl at the death (which is a bit longer than usual because of the lack of wickets taken), use him up early or don't bother bowling him.

Not a very good second spell from Jones, 35 runs off his last four. To be honest I think he would've been better off sticking with the length he bowled in his opening spell, instead of trying to bowl full. Makes it a lot easier for Hussey especially, IMO.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Thank God these two are flying home in a week or two!

 

[Pratters]

It remains a tussle with a classic run out.

This match has been one of the best one day matches I have seen till now.

 

[superkingdave]

Sh*t how f*ckin quick was collingwood there?

 

[Pratters]

I think Neil jinxed em

 

[Adamc]

Whoops. awful mix-up there. If Jones had been a little more alert he could've got Symonds out at the other end though.
EDIT: I think Symonds is out? Yep.

 

[superkingdave]

great Symonds not Hussey has gone!

 

[Pedro Delgado]

Well done umpires, correct.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Both batsmen end up at the same end, by the sound of TMS it's Symonds who was out, but Hussey tried to walk and they called him back - it's Symonds who's gone, MASSIVE wicket for England.

Very shrewd from Hussey though, sneaky little b'stard.

DAMN RIGHT.......

 

[Barney Rubble]

Didn't see it but sounds like another piece of lightning-quick Collingwood magic. I swear that guy's not human.

 

[aussie]

Symonds will be gutted, he had a hundred for the taking & do you guys realise that ENG could have had a double play just now.

Hussey actually dived to try and get in front of Symonds so he would be out instead, quite generous of him really. Australia will probably have to scale back their total a bit now, though Clarke should be able to hit some quick runs.

Collingwood looks so stiff but oh boy when he moves, its like Toby Maguire turning into Spiderman!

There's no such thing in cricket.

I was thinking exactly the same thing and the stupidity of it!

 

[Pratters]

There's no such thing in cricket.

There was talk of bringing it as one of the stupid innovations.

i know mate, but i'm just saying something
