4th Test: England v Australia at Leeds

[piriyanth]

Lol can't imagine Collingwood as a keeper.

 

[Themer]

Prior has got back up now and is training again. I haven't seen anything like this on the opening day.

 

[IloveGilly]

MADNESS I say! Don't they have a replacement waiting?

 

[ajdude]

According to cricinfo, Ambrose has been put on standby, and Haddin's back in our side, says Fox Sports.

 

[piriyanth]

Who knows Collingwood would surprise us with his keeping.

He's a good fielder afterall.

LMAO time to rename the Ashes Series to the Injury Series.
Don't think I've ever seen the home side's keeper injured in a Test let alone having both keepers injured in the same series.

 

[Inbox24]

If Australia don't capitalise on this then seriously bugger off.

 

[aussie1st]

Brett Lee is definitely not playing according to his brother Shane who leaked the info.

England's wicketkeeper, Matt Prior, could join Andrew Flintoff on the sidelines ahead of the fourth Test at Headingley, after he suffered a back spasm while playing football during the team's final warm-up with an hour to go until the start of play.

I'm loving this. I'm loving this!

[OffCutters]

Damn, Prior`s playing, i`d love to see Collingwood keeping. Yes! Harmison is playing, i`d love to see him bowl against us.

 

[King Pietersen]

What a bollocks team selection. Broad still in the side and worryingly batting 7. Should really have brought Trott in for Fred and Harmy for Broad. We've lost. Worst England XI for a long time, just gotta hope Jim, Harmy and Onions bowl bloody well.

Colly's kept before btw, did a solid job actually. Was quite funny to watch.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Harmy's playing? Really?




And England to bat! Oh wow, Harmy and Bell back in the side for an Ashes test, Broad batting at 7, no KP and Fred, and England are holding the lead. I love this series!

 

[aussie1st]

Hauritz is out, Siddle has a lot of love from the selectors even more than Lee.

 

[barmyarmy]

Totally agree with Dan. Only 5 specialist batsmen, two of whom are Bell and Bopara. Huge pressure on Strauss and Cook.
Definitely should have played Trott. Why stick 5 bowlers in when you need to avoid losing? It's the kind of team you pick if you're 1-0 down not 1-0 up.
Harmison is a good pick but why Broad?

 

[angryangy]

Strauss will bat. If you go by last year's Leeds Test it could be a good result for Australia, but England have had a fair run of day 2 strikes so far.
