1st Test England vs Australia

[NFC]

You've gotta give that out, surely?

Batsmans game, give it out.

[Dogwatcher]

Not sure why, but every time I see Stuart Broad, he reminds me of one of these blokes:

[smithy]

LOL DW..........Who are they ?

[spell_check]

If you want to get on TV by invading the pitch, do it when the ball is in the vicinity of the area! You don't get on TV doing it between overs.

[GWW]

Oompa Loompas?? lol

Why isn't Hauritz bowling? I just can't work Ponting out.

It was only 4 days ago and people were asking why is he even playing, how time changes things.

Never questioned that he shouldn't be playing, we needed a spinner. However, Ponting bowled Hauritz all the way through the second session of Day 1 when it didn't suit him, and now when a spinner should be bowling (2nd session, day 5), he plugs away with two medium quicks.

Johnson and Hilf, hardly duds though.

What does Johnson have to do to be called quick....................... medium .

I wasn't saying you had said he shouldn't play either AH but there were plenty that were saying he shouldn't play.

Johnson CAN bowl quick, but in this match, and on this pitch, he's a medium quick. Nobody has bowled quick in this Test.

Flintoff pushed 150kph briefly, Broad had a bit of pace about him. Mitch has been down on pace since the T20 championship though.

But geez that should've been out. Still plenty of time though. FINISH THEM!

This might be unfair, but does anyone get the feeling that with Freddy it's more about Freddy than England?

[Dirko]

Yep...who Fingered Freddy ?

Stood there for a while when he was out....

Pi55 off you petulant knob

He asked Punter whether he caught it or not, Punter said yes and he said thats good enough for me and off he trudged.

He's still not in KP's league though.

He asked Ricky the question and waited. Then left when it was given. Fair enough, I reckon.
