Everytime we look like we are invinsible and are going to dominate and thrash the Aussies, we do something ridiculous to spark a flurry of shitness which results in us looking like not winning a one horse race. Hopefully Bopara hasnt just started that rut!
1302: LUNCH Aus 203-8
That's the end of the session - standing, bawling ovation from the Edgbaston crowd, and if the smile on Strauss's face gets any bigger he'll swallow his own ears. Anderson and Onions lead England off the field - waving to the air-punching masses. Seven wickets for 77 runs...
What a lunch break in the pub, loads of wickets!!!!
Priors catch for NOrths wicket was unbelievable, HUssain and Willis wont be happy with that!
Johnson's time in the test team is looking bleak, if they dropped Hughes for being shit, then Johnson has to go. Depends how he bowls on this pitch...
I was about to say the same thing. It looks like it will be a draw, chances of losing are quite low, chances of winning are quite low, so way make him put in lots of unrewarded effort?
It looks like a dodgy pitch, with tickets still available for Sunday and Monday
Flintoff looks fit. Lee is ruled out and Johnson is an arm mental
Bell to bat at number 4, so the opening pair have to put on a good partnership with Bopara, Bell and Collingwood the next 3 in.
I loves The Ashes I...
