It was OK apart from pitching outside leg and being edged.

Pitched just in line, would have hit, and took a few angles to prove it was bat first.

just in line won't good enough yesterday

by beamer Thu 09 Jul 2015, 12:43

Well, it wasn't umpire's call. Would have been overturned if it wasn't for the edge.

What was the degree of edge?

by Henry Thu 09 Jul 2015, 12:45

Anderson always over-does the ball swinging away from the left hander. Not making them play anywhere near enough.

you can't measure degree os edge with the sooking caliper

You can largely thank Brad Haddin for that.

Yes - and the greater the edge, the greater the sook

Not often we're this far into a Warner/Rogers opening stand and the third-biggest run contribution has been Warner's
(Rogers 12, Extras 6, Warner 5)

by Henry Thu 09 Jul 2015, 12:54

Not for the first time of late, Anderson has been pretty disappointing first up with the new ball.

by lardbucket Thu 09 Jul 2015, 12:55

England are bowling better than we did so far.

Survival remains the name of the game.

by Brass Monkey Thu 09 Jul 2015, 12:57

England are bowling like a sack of shit. That's a fact.

Yes - and the greater the edge, the greater the sook

I'm sorry - edges are binary - edged or not.

Sooking can be multiple grades, not just binary - or the centimudge should be abolished.
