*Official* Third Test at Old Trafford

[Spark]

Lyon doing it beautifully, where was this in India?

At Delhi iirc

In the nets while Doherty and Maxwell wheeled away...

 

[Prince EWS]

At Dehli iirc

And then this.

 

[MW1304]

Cook looks horrible atm.

 

[Pothas]

Cook looks horrible atm.

Will get 250

 

[The Battlers Prince]

haha I love how the English commentators have stopped talking about the 'flat' wicket

 

[Maximas]

Dehli was all pitch, speed and the angle, this is turn and bounce on a second day pitch with some really top class flight.

 

[MW1304]

Will get 250

I'm sick of your optimism.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Cook looks horrible atm.

He sometimes looks like a number 10 batsmen until he gets to 200.

 

[GIMH]

What was the reason for Lyon not being picked before now? Kinda got glossed over after Agar's innings.

 

[Spark]

Certainly getting more turn to the RHers than Swann

 

[ajdude]

it's been too long since haddin's called lyon 'gaz'

 

[The Battlers Prince]

generous calling him 10 not 11 the way he hangs the bat out in the breeze

 

[Furball]

Surprised Clarke doesn't have more men around the bat.

 

[GIMH]

Reckon we need about 750 to put us in a position to win by an innings. Root to take the strike; we'll have it by Boxing Day.

 

[Spark]

Surprised Clarke doesn't have more men around the bat.

Same, these two haven't looked close to middling it

IIRC Agar's name came out of the tombola machine.

I'm convinced the middle order draw straws pre-innings.

 

[Prince EWS]

I don't think there really was one. They just ****ed up.

 

[NUFAN]

Poor from Clarke bringing back Harris before Siddle.

 

[Furball]

I'm not saying he should start playing millions of shots but I don't like the way Root sometimes scores 1 off a million balls at the start of his innings.
