Third Test: Australia v England at Edgbaston

[aussie1st]

Here we go Johnson not even bowling but they are making fun of his seam position.

 

[Howsie]

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.

It was much easier to bat last night. How many runs did he get today when everyone else failed?

Runs are runs. When Australia scored 600+ in the first test, it was easy to bat, but Hughes only made 36.

Lol mate, like Howsie said Hughes would of scored the runs. I'm only saying Watson is to blame because he stuffed up. He's meant to be our opener (although relying on such a failure who has like 6 ducks in a few years is stupid)

I thought that what they were doing at first but they were showing the seam position of the ball that got his wicket.

Well he is rubbish

 

[barmyarmy]

We need to polish the tail off here otherwise they'll get 250. Fred or Onions on for me.

 

[King Pietersen]

Broad trying his best but still not getting anything, he's just not very good. Bring Onions on and Harmison in for him for the 4th Test. He's just not good enough yet, go back to Notts and learn how to bowl in 4 day cricket!

Come back when Watson makes a test match hundred

Smashed? Could you please tell me what you think the word "smashed," means. From where I'm sitting, he just dragged it a little down leg and Siddle played quite a nice shot for 4.

 

[CaptainOZ]

Does Siddle take the award for ugliest cricketer since Boycott?

 

[mattfb]

230 isn't that bad tbh. We can easily win from here. If we make 250 its a very competitive total.

I never thought I'd see the day

That makes no sense. Come back when Hughes actually manages a 50 in the Ashes.

Tell me about it. That was his first Test 50 and he's played 8 matches. lol.
