Wonder what the odds of an Australia first innings lead were at around noon?

You'd need to do a quick statistical analysis of all previous occasions where a team's 9th wicket fell at 98 behind, coupled with the main bowler being out of action and two batsmen of equivalent merit, and you'd get a rough estimate. But don't ask a bookie.

So everyones weekend would be free.

Love how everyone changes their tune after one session of cricket. Thought knee jerking was a football disease :lol:

cannot see that mind.England traditionally for some unknown fuckin reason start test series poorly.....Have the aussies got a left arm spinner playing today? KP will gan to jelly if they have ..
 
3 down or less at the end of tonight and England favourites for me, any more and got to back Australia.

Ponting 169* in his very last innings in 1st class cricket. Surrey declared. Great great player.

Huge innings coming up for Bell in my opinion. If he fails again...
 
So hot spot couldn't show the side on view for Trotts dismissal becos it was showing Roots dismissal.....fuck me ya couldn't make that shit up
 
Root and Trott both given out when the evidence suggests they weren't. There's no nick on Root's, clear deviation on Trott's and a line on snicko (side on hotspot mysteriously not working).

Root can't really blame anyone (he didn't refer), but Trott is entitled to burn down the 3rd Umpires booth IMO, there's no way you can overturn that.
