Valuable boundary thru the slips.

Nein down.

Er, 20 per Cricinfo.

Wow, why didn't Lyon review that?? Was missing leg stump by about 5 inches.

this from the eyes that couldn't see the glove tap

Yeah, was a shamola decision really, real time it looked like it was missing.

Maybe the ICC should hire you?

Lardeye.

by lardbucket Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:05

again, Anderson's wide delivery position on the crease was the giveaway

by lardbucket Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:06

Harris doing his best to add a few.

by Blackadder Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:06

One review left, may as well use the damn thing.. banghead

Jackson Bird has 93 runs in his entire FC / List A batting career. Is he really that bad a bat or is he another Agar style secret weapon waiting to explode in a flurry of boundaries?

by Brass Monkey Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:07

Harris wrecking us. This lead is getting handier by the minute, considering our handshandier batting line-up.

by Henry Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:07

Broad bowling absolute tripe when we really need him to finish this off. FFS.

by skully Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:07

3 handy 4s by Rhino!!

pretty ordinary, but he hasn't had many opportunities

or is he another Agar style secret weapon waiting to explode in a flurry of boundaries?

no

by Brass Monkey Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:08

I'd get Swanny on, myself. It's obviously not working for Broad today.

by lardbucket Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:08

I think he tried to hit that last ball for 12.

Still on with Rolf playing like this. Get the old boots back on Sturat!

The return of "Idiot Broad" (medium-paced bouncers) after the dominance of "Genius Broad" yesterday could be pricey for England in a low-scoring match.

No definitely in the the Glenn McGrath category with bat in hand.

by lardbucket Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:10

What's he done at club level? He really hasn't had much of a go at FC level.

After their shitty use of reviews all series, would be typical if the end up with one spare at the end of the innings.

by Henry Sun 11 Aug 2013, 12:10

Nine wickets down is for England a cue to change the field every ball- One man back, another man back, man up again, two back, short balls, full balls, up, down, back, up.....always a shambles.
