No he isn't, you tepid wombat. He was born in Lancashite.

Harmison bowls Clarke with the last ball

What a good over by Harmison. Five really fast balls then he sent down a slow one, which beat him all ends up.

 

[Phil B]

Possibly the greatest piece of fast bowling I've ever seen. After roughing up the batsman with two vicous short balls, Harmison tore in and you expected a venemous delivery. Instead, down comes a perfectly pitched slower ball. You could see the fear come into the batsmans eyes as he realised he had been fooled and seemed to lurch forwards, just like someone groping for the light switch in the dark - but too late, and he was bowled all over the place. Brilliant stuff and a perfect end to the days play, unless you're an Aussie, of course!

 

[Kylies Stunt Arse]

Lets hope we can clear up the tail nice and early so Freddie can get as much treatment and rest on that shoulder as possible.

 

[Yorkie]

It was great standing in Derby (alongside Derby fans) watching the wickets fall yesterday evening.
The pub was full, the beer was flowing and all fans singing Ingerland Ingerland Ingerland every time a wicket went
