3RD ASHES TEST EG V AU EDGBASTON 2009

[purch]

I'd get Siddle off for Johnson and Watson off for Hauritz ... quickly

[MatteeG]

Watson on, and the runs flow....

why have we no fielders in close? all deep. hard to set the field to this shite.

[wycbloods]

At least Siddle is bowling aggresively and looks like trying something Watto has just bowled crap!

[rod_rooster]

Any chance Hauritz could get a bowl? Maybe Ponting is enjoying the strokeplay of Prior and Flintoff and doesn't want to slow them down

Give the man an elephant stamp ...

[purch]

This is rubbish from Siddle. He has been ordinary today. So much so that an English batsmen is about to get himself out

[rod_rooster]

What a dumb shot from Prior.

[wycbloods]

Good work Siddle it was effort that got that wicket, and a crap shot from Prior .

Nah it was just a crap shot. You could see it coming though

As i said earlier he was bowling aggresively and i think that contributed to the wicket.

We are a chance to go through them quickly here i feel .

[purch]

Hauritz not spinning the ball at all and bowling flat darts. He will keep going for runs if he stays on, though might get a wicket from a miscue..

Could be worse, Watto could come back on.

Hilf and Johno now methinks. If they can get some reverse swing happening...

[dedja]

I don't think Siddle was listening when Holding was talking about hitting the word full on the pitch.

[rod_rooster]

If only that bounced into Manou's gloves. Would've been as much of a catch as Strauss claimed last Test.

Siddle does need to come off now for the Hilf or Johnson.

[dedja]

Is Punter logged onto this site?

[rod_rooster]

Lucky we have Watto as a fifth bowler Best thing that has happened is that he was taken off before he hurt himself again.

[dedja]

C'mon, look on the bright side ... the hammy has stood up until at least the 4th day.

[redden whites]

and well done England for allowing the late change.

Agreed Rod, a very very sporting gesture by the England captain.
