****.

Brad Hogg, all is forgiven until your next over.

 

[Jono]

Silly shot, Flintoff got suckered in there. Hoggy's got one.

 

[Demolition Man]

Kasper can field though, nice catch .

 

[Neil Pickup]

Hehe, I think Eddie knows what an oxymoron is. Read his reply again, it was a joke as well.

Barney can join Freddy in the taxi.

 

[Slow Love™]

Wow, that was a needed wicket - Hogg strikes and gets Flintoff caught in the deep!

England still in front but the gap is closing.

 

[luckyeddie]

Sorry. An oxymoron is a sentence or phrase that seems to contain an inherent contradiction - hence my description of "our German friends" as an example of this.

Just a little example of my own sharp wit there........or not.

Don't worry, my knowledge of the English language is fair to middling.

Perhaps I ought to apply for a job in American Military Intelligence

how much stuff on the net is banned over there anyway ???

not too much (that i notice, anyway). bbc is, the new york times is on again, off again. google was banned for a while, which p***ed everyone off no end, then it came back. im sure id have trouble finding any sites about falun gong or tianeman square.

(haha, i just tried searching 'falun gong' in google-- This page cannot be displayed)

edit: and now google isnt working. great.

Are you sure the R/R nearly six an over and McGarth still to come back.

Didn't take a genius!

I reckon this has edged back toward the Aussies again - and Ponting's back to 2 points for his captaincy today (was at -3 earlier)

No way - Aus 80-85% for me now.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Well worth a shout off Kasper. Hoggy looking a lil too easy to attack at the moment though, I can see a big over coming unless Freddie miscues one. Mind you, it'd probably still go for six.

Well, it might have gone for six if "the ghost" wasn't there. Once again, they needed a pole before the 30 over mark, much like the one they got before 20 overs were completed. England go another 10 overs without losing a wicket and they win.

If Vaughan stays in for another 10 overs, the R/R Req will be 7 an over.

Well, it's close, but I'd still have England just ahead. For the first time for a fair while though, I feel like we're really in it now. 6 an over through the last 20 isn't exactly rare these days.

yep, absolutely correct slow love. if the aussies get pietersen soon it'll be a pretty even contest
