Third Test: Australia v England at Edgbaston

[angryangy]

I really don't mind when an umpire keeps his finger in the holster like today, although they've been good shouts, clear and concentrated senses can spot the element of doubt in them. The trouble is when they break from this approach spontaneously to give a dodgy one out.

 

[Themer]

Good quick start to this partnership which is what is required for England to even have an outside hope of winning.

 

[Jaztheman]

I'm starting to think that Hilfy might just overuse that outswinger a tad...

Collingwood upping the run rate and we're looking surprisingly good despite Johnson's little flutter of brilliance.

Good to see Johnson bowling well. If he can get back into form then it could be vital to our Ashes.

what flutter of brilliance?

 

[Themer]

what flutter of brilliance?

His last over, it was pretty darn good.

 

[Jaztheman]

what flutter of brilliance?

Compared to the tripe he has been bowling, a flutter is brilliance is the least you could say about his past over.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Ouch. That's gonna leave a mark.

 

[mattfb]

Unlucky Katman, was a tough chance. Unlucky.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Will the spinner come in anytime soon? Few overs of Haurtiz could lead to a false shot.

 

[Cricketdude]

Another wicket!

 

[aussie1st]

Brilliantly setup by Hilfy, could see that coming from his previous over.

 

[Gilly Fan]

Got him! Great swing bowling from Ben Hilfenhaus. Finally gets Collingwood driving and edging. Top catch from Ponting.

 

[mattfb]

YES! Hilfy!! Well bowled, pitched it up well there. Top catch from Punter too.

 

[evertonfan]

There we go, game firmly in Australia's hands now.
