    Hmm, if you think that last 50 mattered then fair enough. (It didn't though)

    Nice to see Mushy involved at the end there.

    Smith only made runs when it didn't matter too, including that 50 in the last inings of the series.

    When Hughes 'caught' that ball he seemed to shrug, not as if to wonder whether it had carried (he knew it hadn't) but as if to ask if they were really going to appeal when he and Haddin knew it hadn't carried. I think Clarke encouraged the appeal. Let's not forget that Clarke has form in this...

    Why did Austalia A declare? To prevent any of our bowlers getting any work in?

    Hauritz must have really pissed someone off. Beer might have a bit of talent but if Pieterson, or anyone else for that matter, gets on top of him he will be expensive. The Aussies have nobody to tie up an end, like Hauritz can do.

    We really don't need extra runs and Swann coming in at 8 isn't exactly a disaster, the boy can hold a bat. I think the confident mentality of the current set up will see us pick Tremlett, keep on the front foot like.

    I'd go with Tremlett, a few of these Aussies can't play the short ball.

    Indeed, they would have left the pitch at around 2:00 local time. Brilliant to get them nice and early.

    If the ball is likely to swing we've got to take the new cherry as soon as it's available, haven't we?

    New ball due next over?

    I would think they will start early again. Sounds like the ball should swing.... Tuesday Rain periods, easing to a shower or two early morning, before increasing to showers and a thunderstorm during the afternoon. Warm to hot with light to moderate NE/N winds and a light to moderate SW...

    If the referral is successful it does not count as one used.

    He started to walk but when he realised the England players stopped celebrating he turned and looked at the umpire who had given not out, then he stood his ground and England had to refer. A ridiculous situation really as it was a huge edge. I don't think the England players did a lot wrong in...

    MClarke23 Michael Clarke by miller_cricket Just want to apologise for not walking off the ground tonight when I hit the ball. I was just so disappointed, my emotions got best of me. 2 hours ago Favorite Retweet Reply

    Good points made about actually bowling as Siddle did. Anderson bowling wide of the stumps for the first over was pretty f***ing stupid.

    I am SO tired. Bell looked really good this morning when I awoke (about 5:35 after going to bed at 1:30). Not great from the othe guys but good that Cook and Pietersen got runs. Strauss shouldn't have played at the ball he got in my mind, you leave everything that first over. Prior got a good...
