[Jono]

There's rain forecast?

 

[Barney Rubble]

Watson talking it up to Flintoff.

Interesting...

Bad, bad idea. Do it to Tino Best by all means, but not to Flintoff.

 

[aussie]

Watson is fired up

Yes i like the agression

 

[Neil Pickup]

Never a truer word spoken. Is ther forecast still for rain?

And what's with the fluro yellow ear guards on Flintoff? Interesting...

No rain anywhere. Have just unpacked my fan - it's the hottest day of the year.

(I'm 75 miles from Bristol)

 

[chaminda_00]

I think this will now be a test of how far we've come as a team.

But have you really improved in ODIs??

 

[Jono]

Go Freddy Go!

 

[PY]

Freddie lurves the short ball.

 

[Neil Pickup]

But have you really improved in ODIs??

Mentality-wise.

PS - Fetch that...

 

[Barney Rubble]

Freddie winds up and strikes one out of the park.....

 

[andyc]

it's the hottest day of the year.

wow. must be pushing at least 20!

 

[vic_orthdox]

Let's hope Fred doesn't try to smash the leather off the ball first up

.
Doesn't seem interested in listening to you.

Michael Holding, the master of understatement. "It was in the right direction, except it went a tad too far for the fielder"

 

[Barney Rubble]

31C where I am actually, ya cheeky little......

 

[superkingdave]

wow. must be pushing at least 20!

its over 30 actually

but the storm has just broken over my house and im currently without sky pictures!

 

[aussie]

If Australia want to win this they have to get Freddie & KP out cheaply for sure or else England can run away with this

 

[BoyBrumby]

That was 5 rows back & Fred didn't get close to middling it. He's a strong lad.

Wouldn't be too discouraged if I were Kasper tho, if Fred's gonna take him it could be interesting.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Anyone else half-wanting Vaughany to get out right now? Freddie and KP still haven't batted together for England.

not i be quite happy for KP to come in at 200-4.

Id also be quite happy if the electrical storm decided to pass

Fifteen more overs maybe - but now we are setting the platform.

well at least you've got a chance of getting it back. star sports suddenly decided to end coverage of the game for the confederations cup. right before the flintoff 6 and 4 too.
