Don't forget Broad softened them all up first......
 
at least one wicket doesnt count cos broad had tendulkar trapped and the umpire had a shocker! (which allowed jimmy to then nip in).
 
It looks like Anderson has broken into the top 10 of the all time test wicket takers list for England on 226.

He could be the 4th member of the 300 club within a year or two.

I'm going for this and Tendulkar being ill.

He might also decide that as Jimmy got them out the world's best batting line up has gone the way of the Aussies, ie they're shit now.

Oh and he's not as good as Steyn.

And he needs to do it in SA.

Jimmy and Broad were tremendous in this match. In the past watching these two performances in isolation i would have given the edge to Broad as he performed well throughout the match. However EB is most insistent that its 5fers that win matches and 3s and 4fers are neither here nor there - after Jimmy took an excellent 4fer in the Ashes.

So it seems Anderson performed brilliantly in Australia without a cloud in the sky in 35 degree heat. He performed brilliantly today on a flat deck under bright blue skies against the best batting line up in world cricket. Is there anywhere for EB to go on this? He can't even use the 'undercooked' argument given how fulsome of praise he was for Broad in the first innings.

Sehwag - absent
Ghambir - injured
Khan - injured

we were only playing against 9 men FFS.

It was nice of India to rock up having had next to no practice over here.

p.s. been playing against the SMB showing Jimmy how to bowl

Come on, just say it, it's not hard

"Jimmy had a good game, he's a good test bowler"

You can even put he's still not as good as Dale Steyn on the end if you want :lol:

Unbelieveable :lol:

Dravid, Laxman, Tendulkar Raina and even Harbhajan has 2 test centuries.

You are just looking bitter and daft now.

Out of interest how do you think broad performed? Is his performance discredited in the same fashion?

Everytime Anderson performs there are factors that you use to discredit him. When he doesn't perform there are no mitigating circumstances for Anderson.
