Third Test: Australia v England at Edgbaston

[piriyanth]

England is suffering from the loss of Pietersen, interesting to see how they cope batting without him.

I like how everyone is bagging on Watson after he got out. Where were all of you when he played fine yesterday?

Bloody clown lol

Broad is so rubbish, get him of Strauss

Good point raised by Authers. Don't know why Strauss is starting with Blonde, he used his magic card already by opening the day with Onions.

Wow 60 runs, he must be the greatest batsmen ever :sarcasm

Blondie bowls another one down leg side. At least he looks like swinging the ball, same can't be said for our goldie.

In the absence of Matt I'll do the honours:

[evertonfan]Oh no, England are rubbish. Hauritz and Siddle will score centuries and then we'll be all out for 3 cos we're epic failers[/evertonfan]

Without those 60 runs, you guys would be in a much worse position. You just can't accept being wrong.

lol, that's a stupid analysis. Without these 60 runs someone else would of faced the first ball and a 99% chance they wouldn't of failed and start a collapse.

Watto fail.

Considering the next top score was 46, those 60 odd look quite precious. You should be hating on Hussey, who got out leaving the ball for the second time this series. North played at a shitty delivery that he should have left. Clarke was wrongly given out, but he was dropped by Flintoff, so whatever. Johnson also just left the delivery. The only person who was really given a unplayable delivery was Manou. Everyone else just gave their wickets away. So I don't see how Watson did anything wrong. He scored 60, which is fine. He got out first ball! OMG, how dare he? Because no greats get out first ball. Only bad batsman like Bradman, Lara, and Ponting get out on their first ball.

Hughes would of made runs last night, the pitch was doing nothing. One innings doesn't make Watson any better then he was two days ago. Just look at his test record

Too many run out opportunities for England but thanks for screwing it all up.
