[Cricket] First Ashes Test - England v Australia - Cardiff

[Titanic]

He's out here I reckon

given not out... doesn't look conclusive to me.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Phew.

 

[Simster]

given not out... doesn't look conclusive to me.

Indeed. It either brushed his glove or possibly his arm. Not really conclusive, so umpire's call.

Poor old Johnson - not having a good time

England 430 all out

England 430 all out

Nice half hour bowl at them before lunch now

 

[Billy the Fish]

I might be deluded, but I've got a feeling our bowlers might get something out of this

 

[Triggaaar]

You are deluded.

 

[Guinness Boy]

I'd have settled for 430 yesterday morning! We need to get two or three out with the new ball because once it goes soft you could play it with a tooth pick on that.

 

[leigull]

430 is a great score from 43-3 (nearly 43-4), but think the Aussies will match it and maybe even surpass it.

LBW review... looked close... but Broad always thinks it is out!

 

[Titanic]

D'oh! what a waste of a review... he hit it.

10-0

 

[Simster]

I've told you before - Broad is a complete cock. He's never out when he's batting and the batsman is always out when he's bowling. Absolute nob.

Lunch - Day 2

Australia 26-0, trailing by 404 runs.

Another pretty good session for England.

Warner GONE!!! LBW to Jimmy Anderson...

38-1

Wait... he is reviewing it...

 

[Titanic]

It's pitched well outside leg

SHOCKER

 

[Papa Lazarou]

43-0 - despite the swing the slow pitch means it's going to be painful for the English bowlers for a while now.

So, what score do you think Australia will get?

350, 400, 450, 500, 500+?

Fantastic catch from Cook... Anderson gets Warner
