I'm surprised Prior got away scot free.

And JKL need not worry, if Bopara takes another Test wicket he will automatically halve his bowling average anyway...

With Haddin out they can't risk dropping Midge as that makes a mighty long tail. I think Gump for Horrors who is still quite rubbish.

I had forgotten Horrors was still in the side.

The useless piece if qbilly trash

Stop bringing facts into my diatribe ya crazy one eyed chip.
They have no place on the internet.

hmnn..things I learned from the last day...

Fat Freddie is truly gonski...taken fewer wickets than midge at a higher average...

Broad seems to be selected as the token Princess Di lookalike

The Chin is as threatening as Haurers...what a tosser too...bowling in his shades...

That boy Ollie North can play a bit...

Hussey is as convincing a batsman as RD is when trying to get lucky in Ipswich..

excellent effort by watson...plays straight - albeit a bit mechanical...showed a bit of guts too

by JGK Tue 04 Aug 2009, 02:52

So Hughes for Hussey with Watto to 4?

You, you, southerners have forfeited the right to be complimentary to Watson and don't come referring to him to him as your old mate Watto.

Leave Hughes to become the voice of twitter.

Did anyone hear Boycott on ABC last night - FFS sounded like he had one hand on the mike - and the other on his pud!

Hehehe. Thanks for that, Sir Jo.

by JGK Tue 04 Aug 2009, 04:05

By the way, Clarke now averages over 50. That is by far the highest average for someone with 2000+ test runs but a HS of <160.

Next best is Mark Richardson with 44.77 and then Al Cook with 43.97.

by G.Wood Tue 04 Aug 2009, 04:14

He's certainly become a proper test batsman rather than just a purdy advantaged spiv with a bit of talent

You had to chuckle at that bloody big welt on his arm.

And kudos to him - in days gone past he may have lost that arm

Now all we need is Chewbacca bowling and Spock captaining.

we have anti-spock captain. Fails to recognise any logic

Twas my point. Explaining the nature(or indeed the point) of the game to our current XI would help too.
