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

3,000,000 Australians

Even better

 

[vic_orthdox]

I don't have much knowledge of Duckworth-Lewis, does it usually favour the team batting first or second in this situation?

 

[superkingdave]

Even better

Ha ha, looks fairly set over my head

 

[chaminda_00]

How much would Australia love to have Shane Warne in the side, Brad Hogg on should be interesting

Second team, but depends how many wickets you have lost.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Anyone else finding Cricinfo extremely slow these days?

 

[Adamc]

If England keep this scoring rate for the next 10 or 15 overs without losing more than one or two wickets, they should get home pretty comfortably. If Hogg can: a) take some wickets now; and b) keep his tongue in his mouth, I'll stop campaigning for him to be dropped, for a while at least.

TMS getting very excited at seeing Freddie try to split the ball in half. It's two Aussies who've not seen him properly yet, it's quite amusing.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Looks like they'll have to use Clarke or Hussey for a few as well - I can't foresee Ponting using Hogg into the last 10 overs, like he'd have to if he were to bowl all 10.

This is where you need MSN messenger to get in with the real-time match banter...

Always happens when Freddie at the crease, everyone jumps on the net that don't have TV coverage

 

[Sudeep]

The blighters at ESPN Star ended the coverage, to air the Confederations Cup.

It's definitely a first in India, football being prefered over cricket.

 

[superkingdave]

or just listen to TMS online

i am sensing a big hit form Flintoff off Hogg
