*Official* Second Test at Lord's

[Spark]

ball has already stopped doing much. Really should be able to get a good total here, bloody waste if we dont.

Clarke's at 5. All is well

 

[Uppercut]

Ooh good save there.

Watto looking ominous.

Is Watto even capable of looking ominous?

 

[dermo]

tbh would much prefer Watson grinds out his first 30 odd, if he scores a quick first 30 i always assume hes going to throw it away


and he usually does

 

[Maximas]

roadyroadyroad, lalalala

Is Watto even capable of looking ominous?

Heh.

Still think he's gonna throw it all away on around 70-odd.

 

[Maximas]

Heh.

Still think he's gonna throw it all away on around 70-odd.

I'd take that

 

[wpdavid]

Oh dear this is a sign of what's to come. Wicket before lunch needed.

We needed a couple while the ball was still very new. As it is, we're heading for deep trouble.

Not really the bowlers' fault, even though Bresnan is a complete pie chucker nowadays. The failure of our top order to do their jobs will probably cost us this time.

 

[Furball]

Is Watto even capable of looking ominous?

No. He could cream the first 13 balls he faces for 4 for the fastest ever 50 and I'd still expect him to slap one to gully or plant his front foot and get given lbw.

 

[Ruckus]

Think Anderson is better overall, but where Harris makes up a good deal of the difference is when the ball isn't doing much. Best flat wicket bowler we have.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Heh.

Still think he's gonna throw it all away on around 70-odd.

Shane Watson - the only player in the world for whom 70 is a disappointing failure.

wait to we pass your total before you say anything, England still very much in the game

 

[social]

Bresnan really does look very pedestrian these days

 

[Cabinet96]

Ground records are such random pieces of useless stats. There's actually reasons why Finn is more suited to Lords than Bresnan, but just quoting records doesn't prove anything.

He's in a league with Bradman.

I seem to remember every Australian innings in '09 starting exactly like this before degenerating into a horrible collapse from 80/0.
