Third Test: Australia v England at Edgbaston

[barmyarmy]

Big well done to the England lower order when you consider that Cook, Bopara and Collingwood all failed and neither Strauss or Bell converted their 50s to 100s.

 

[Simbazz]

Broad, bowling wise needs to go back to Nottingham. I just can't see an England batting lineup without him though.

 

[SciD]

This will test Watson.

Lol Mitch is a joke. Lost his battle with Fred so he picks fights with our tail-enders instead. And he still gets billed around.

Nah, I think Johnson won the battle with Flintoff. Flintoff didn't hit him around too much IIRC. Plus he had the last laugh with Swann didn't he?

Awww, bloody hell i was enjoying that Flintoff innings. Really took my mind off having swine flu. :doh

You have swine flu?

 

[barmyarmy]

Bowlers always get the last laugh. It's how many you get hit for first.

Katich looking a bit loose here, Anderson again looks the most dangerous of the bowlers so far.

 

[dajesmac]

Watson absolutely smoked Onions in that over.

Its Swann. Not KP.

 

[barmyarmy]

Onions strikes. Katman gone - had a stinker.

Edit: I am not going to buy a 207. Never. Ever. Ever.

Yes but evertonfan said he got bullied around, I'm just saying Johnson won in the end.

 

[aussie1st]

Very average shot by a player of Katich's class. Nice pressure by Onions though.

Fact Me!

Well we take a regular Colin, then we pour on the goodies.

Front Colins, Back Colins. Yada Yada.

The_gas added 2 Minutes and 41 Seconds later...

You have swine flu?

Yep, feel rough as a badgers ass.

 

[barmyarmy]

Beautiful Swann (and btw that's one against Koertzen the ball before).

To a batsman like Ponting that was an incredible ball!

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Swann :hpraise


Australia's goose has been cooked by Swann and Onions.

 

[dajesmac]

Wow, cracker of a ball but I have to question Ponting's judgement. He got completely ***** four times in a row, why go for a booming drive when its spinning that much? Especially at this stage in the day.

England 2-0 this time tomorrow I'm afraid.
