    a ridiculously wide wide

    Twas only ridiculously wide cos it seamed a long way. What's more, that didn't hurt my stats prediction, as byes don't count against the bowler 😉

    Are England throwing this game?? How can they be playing so bloody badly all of a sudden!? I reckon they've got a bet on against themselves to lose (the odds must've been pretty good at the start of the day? Does anyone know what they were?)

    I'm suddenly feeling much, much more optimistic.

    Why are they bowling so short when the ball was swinging for Australia? 😡

    all they have to do is get 8 aussies out without loosing 40 runs

    england arent a badly packed kebab they are a kebab with no pita and no wrapping

    just a load of meat pickles lettuice and chilli\ garlic sauce dumped in your hand, dribbling through your fingers

    that's a bloody tough call! bloody tough… round the wicket, slanting across, maybe hitting leg, but there's got to be doubt there surely?

    Bit like being given out caught when the ball hit your arm then?

    actually, for some reason (maybe schoolboy cricket?) I always thought that your forearm was considered part of your bat?

    Go for it then, If Aussies bat till lunch tomorrow then declare, the ultimate shame of losing by an innings is staring Straus right in the face, and, sods law, the rain aint gonna save us as I think Headingly is dry this w/end.

    I don't think the Aussies quite made enough there. When Bopara makes his double ton, supported by Bell with 150 or so, I can't see them chasing down the target we'll set them.

    only just… what a debacle for the Poms 🙄 That's gotta be the end for Bopara's career out of this test?

    another crap umpiring decision mind.

    Yeah, if the umpire hadn't made that mistake I'm sure he'd have gone on to make at least 200 as I predicted.

    A very English performance but the Oval is going to be interesting 😀

    That might have seemed an obvious prediction at the time!

    We need less than 100 to make them bat again. Now if it hadn't been for that awful umpiring preventing Bopara getting his double hundred…
