Don't even know why I wrote that, shameful for a cricket lover :laugh: Thanks for correcting me though.

Finn MUST play at the Gabba in my opinion, I'd go with: Cook Carberry Root Pietersen Bell Bairstow Prior Broad Swann Finn Anderson

I suppose so, just trying to be a bit more positive with my 1-5% chance :lolol: Broad is a very capable batsman though :thumbsup:

Is it bad I have more faith in Broad at the crease than I do with a lot of our batsmen? What's the chance of us saving this test? 5%.. Or maybe that's a push, without any rain break I'd say 1%

I think I will try catch the first hour or two and see how things go, have an early start tomorrow (Sunday League) so might not even watch that, I'm not sure why but I just keep tuning in waiting for us to wake up... It's been embarrassing so far, that's the only way to describe it.

Said that after the first test, Finn is our only 90+ regular bowler and instead we play Tremlett who has lost his pace massively and has become very tame recently.

Yup, 'Mitch' had definitely bowled well though, just seen the highlights and it would appear despite the fact he bowled some rippers, there were some extremely poor shots by our batsmen. I feel for those England fans who have saved up for years to go out there to watch that shit. Prior...

Just arisen from my pit and frequented the BBC Sport website. What a ****ing shambles! Embarrassment, can't even make a decent score. Ian Bell, only one who deserves credit & only one with a BRAIN.

Bed time I think :nono:

Oh dear, why? Silly shot really, there's being aggressive and then there's throwing your wicket away like that.

Watching England bat at the moment I've just realised before every ball I'm just think 'don't get out' seems like the players are in that mindset too rather than thinking of scoring runs, ticking along at 1.5 per over.

Just seem on Will Hill KP is 7/4 to score a fifty, looks like extremely good odds to me

This is the sort of batting pitch an in form Pietersen would take to pieces, probably be out for a duck then... I'm going for England all out for 400'ish with a big hundred from Root. Thing is even if we could save a draw in this match we only need a draw from the series in order to retain.
