England v India - 1st Test, Lords

Not open for further replies.

Got hit right there fielding once ... absolutely knacked. Was almost physically sick. Hurts like hell and tingling right down my arm for a couple of days.
 
405 test wickets is more than Broad, Swann and Tremlett put together (without checking)

:lol:

Comparing him to Swann...

Harbhajan has played 96 matches to Swann's 32.

32 goes into 96 three times, multiply Swann's 140 wickets by 3? Comparatively it's more, not a great comparison I know and it is extrapolation but I honestly think Swann is the better bowler. He just hasn't played the same number of matches.

Edit - Swann's wickets have been less expensive as well...

aye but Swann spends his time playing on sub continent spinning wickets
 
Another fifty for prior and broad looking good too, now time for a few big hits for half an hour then declare...
 
knowing strauss we will bat the day out :roll:

nah in all seriousness i reckon he will wait til we have a lead of around 480 (which is about 80 too many in my opinion)

swann is much better, and bowls the majority on none spinning wickets (if you compare them to the spin friendly dust bowls harbi spends most of his time on).

how many sides in the history of the game have got 400...

this is rediculous, dangle a carrot to them, 360 is more than enough

I can't see that happening, I reckon that message then was to get a quick 20-30 runs and the declaration is on its way. Probably a case of Prior can get his ton provided he does it quickly.
