*Official Third Test at Edgbaston

[pasag]

Still don't understand why Watto hasn't gotten a bowl, might get some serious swing, might not, worth a try. Hilf must be pretty tired by now.

 

[Pizzorno]

Why?

Firstly to wipe out Australia's lead and lessen the chances of defeat, secondly to try and force an unlikely victory, and thirdly because he's Fred and I want him too.

 

[GIMH]

Johnson and Flintoff getting stuck into each other out there. Hope Flintoff destroys the Aussie bastard and then ***** him with the ball tomorrow

 

[Pizzorno]

Would love to see England eke out a 70-80 run lead and have Anderson and Onions move the ball around, see whether the Aussies can cope. But the batsmen are going to prevent that scenario from happening. Too many weak dismissals.

Sums it up really. Barring the good delivery that got Bell out the rest of our batsmen have gotten themselves out.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Johnson bowling really well. Not just the swing either, has a lot of the right lines back on the back of a length stuff.

Agree with Gelman, bring Watson on for Hilf.

 

[GIMH]

Should give credit to the crims though, have bowled well

I really, really, really, really want this to happen but given Fred's batting, I don't see it happening. And Lol at Johnson too. Where was this lip when he was bowling garbage?

 

[Son Of Coco]

Great ball from Mitch there to Flintoff (4th ball!?). Good to see him in the batsman's faces a bit too. I'm glad he's doing this as I feared he'd be the same as Lord's.

It's also nice to see two guys bowling together and putting pressure on over a long period.

Yeah definitely. With good bowling comes batsman error. Not taking anything away from them like.

You know its the 4th day right?

 

[GIMH]

Watto warming up, Smitteh has a well-deserved hard on

 

[GIMH]

You know its the 4th day right?

Exactly. If we are going to win, we need a lead by close, ideally

Deserve no fewer than seven wickets per session tbh.

 

[GIMH]

Deserve no fewer than seven wickets per session tbh.

was waiting for someone to say that

So if he was giving lip when he was bowling garbage you'd respect him more? Only players like your Sreesanths do that sort of thing and he's not really held in great regard.

 

[GIMH]

Now that's better

 

[Athlai]

Exactly. If we are going to win, we need a lead by close, ideally

Since when have the English been optimistic?

I'm Martyn, pleased to meet you

what the **** are you doing???

 

[Pigeon]

Poor over Mitch there.
