Australia v England - 3rd Test

[London Irish]

At the end of Panesar's first over, the camera showed a bloke in a Palookaville top sitting alongside someone in a huge floppy hat wearing this season's home strip. Of course Monty's next ball was a wicket-taker

good morning fella

Howdy

im going to bed

 

[Beach Hut]

I've got up - not a bad start

 

[Trigger]

Morning all, just woke up for the last stint...

Ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh Monty Monty...

 

[Muhammad - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

another one for monty

 

[Simster]

Anyone else proper pissed off that the OBVIOUS tactic of removing the clanger of Spain and HANDBAGerson and replacing them with super MONTY and "a bit shit but better than Anderson" Mahmood has yielded such OBVIOUS rewards?

Thanks Fletcher you tosser. Pick a proper team when all is lost. I'm suprised you didn't wait until Sydney you utter goon.

All we need now is for Monty to score a half-century and a couple of catches in the second innings ........

Do you think he'll take a routine catch offered by Ponting when he's on, say, 30 ish? Or do you think he'd rather bowl 20 overs of unthreatening shite and let someone else take his wicket a hundred runs later?

 

[Billy the Fish]

Blimey, I go to sleep for a couple of hours and Monty takes 3 wickets. It just makes the decision to leave him out even more ridiculous

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Looks like Monty WAS the man (although well played Harmison, Ponting is THE big wicket!)

Anyway, if you want to watch, download sopcast, and play channel 12736

Ashley Giles sits in the Pavilion gnashing his teeth.

What a wasted opportunity.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Peach of a ball

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Fletcher looks forward to the press conference at the end of the day ....................................

 

[Frutos]

Why did we not pick Panesar before now?

The selectors are obviously twats.

 

[Simster]

The BBC text commentary team are getting a bit cocky. Have they forgotton that England haven't even managed to score 150 in HALF the innings they've batted this series? Let's face it, we could have 3 or 4 wickets down by the end of the day.

 

[n1 gull]

harmison - what a cracking delivery

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Boycott said you can't tell who is winning until both teams have batted .......................

I am hoping that Cook shows some form.
