Third Test: Australia v England at Edgbaston

[aussie1st]

It just hit me, the way Strauss plays the sweep is exactly the same as how they do it in Ashes Cricket. I'm so use to the way Hayden hits it.

Except in Ashes cricket he'd get run out straight afterwards.

evertonfan added 0 Minutes and 40 Seconds later...

I suspected that you wanted Johnson to regain form.

What England fan would want that?!

Bopara almost falls victim to Johnson's lucky wicket.

 

[Jaztheman]

The 50 is up which is great news for us. Cook may of lost his wicket early on but we've salvaged the innings thus far. Odds for a double century partnership including Bopara?

 

[Themer]

Decent over that by Johnson. Kept it quite tight and kept it in good areas for the most part.

I sincerely hope so

This partnership is getting kinda annoying, we need a break through.

 

[Magz]

Lmao Bopara fell over.

50 partnership. Our guys seem to think that Shane Warne is bowling not Nathan Hautitz, Fair to say he's earned their respect.

It's also fair to say he's their best bowler.

Awwww brutally honest opinion by Michael Holding "If hes not going to swing it, and if hes not doing anything with the older ball then what is he doing there"

 

[CaptainOZ]

And that's tea

 

[piriyanth]

Apart from the Cook's dismissial,it was a pretty disappointing session for Australia.

 

[aussie1st]

Cmon Hauritz get back to the line and length that was troubling Strauss. Not those short and wide pies.

 

[barmyarmy]

Technical flaws against good bowlers. Fingers crossed for Bell as we need to stabilise here.
