4th Test: England v Australia at Leeds

[aussie1st]

Wow wasn't expecting Bell to get out like that. Great bowling Johnson, that is the bouncers we saw in SA.

Good ball, bad technique. Needed to drop his hands.

As for Clark, he's economical but I don't think he'll get a big load of wickets. Just the odd one. Might be a good thing. Might be easing pressure off Johnson at the other end or something.

 

[OffCutters]

On ya bike, Belly!! Good length by Jonno, good bowling.

 

[Howsie]

Hes lost a bit but hes keeping it tight and getting some out swing. This isn't the seaming wicket that the Clark type bowlers like.

Probably a little harsh to say he looks rubbish. But yes, he's quite clearly lost a little bit of pace.

Edit: Bell gone. It was always going to happen. Good call Angryangy haha.

That was a cracker... no venom in the pitch, I guess Johnson must be bowling a bit of orright, then.

I may be jinxing England here, but Cook and Bell are looking pretty solid out there.

Haha, nice one.

You beautie.

1 minute later

 

[IloveGilly]

The ball starting to swing and he gets out to the short ball. Heh.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Why did I post that. Why?



The stadum is dead silent. Colly, Prior, and then the tail. Geez this isn't going to be pretty to watch. Here's praying for a 7/12 from Harmy...

 

[King Pietersen]

What a surprise. Bottler Bell at it again. Too late to bring Trott in for Broad?

 

[Howsie]

What a jinx :laugh

Probably a little harsh to say he looks rubbish. But yes, he's quite clearly lost a little bit of pace.

I reckon the pressure he is building setup that wicket for Johnson. And so far Ponting's bowling changes have been spot on. Not having Johnson and Siddle bowling together is a good start.

 

[RoboRocks]

Big mistake not to play 6 batsmen here. Were in for a thrashing in this test.

 

[bowser]

WTF, Johnson has discovered swing again. Colly very late and very lucky there

 

[iridescentt]

I'm sure Cook will get triple figures here today, he's solid as Jinx, Jinx, Jinx ... I betcha' some sucker will see this white writing.
