He's actually doing quite well today, he's lifted his strike rate from around 28-30 to 45. And yeah, having faced 300 balls thats a fair old acceleration.

Hussey out for 182. Got a fright when I flicked back to the scoreboard and there was only one batsmans name..........

At lunch on day 4, he's on 186.

Go Dizz Go!

OMG DIZZY!!

WHAT A LEGEND

It's the hair!

Now its time for Hoggard. Sadly we don't play Bangladesh or Zimbabwe soon.

I'm not sure if you saw it in the ashes but they did do a feature of how Dizzy's hair may have been slowing him down & why he'd lost his yard of pace

I had that exact same conversation with one of my mates, I think I dubbed him the "Anti-Sampson".

ps, been waiting for you to turn up in this thread!

This leads me to something Hayden said last week

"England are a one or two man team, without flintoff & a couple of others they'd be shit"

can you say Ponting, Warne, McGrath

Anyway, we'll see, depends how many of our players are still injured by then, we were down to "are you fit and can hold a bat? goto india!" just

haha yeah

i think its a stupid comment anyway. any team in the world has key players and with cricket only having 11 players, and usually 5 batters and 5 bowlers if u take 2 key members out of those key positions on ANY team in ANY sport then they will struggle.

8 months and counting!

should be majorly fun, except for getting up to watch it at like midnight my bodyclock will be fucked.

we've had to use some younger players in India, so by the time the tests come, they may be ready for it, a young opening batsman who got a century on debut, and some of our younger bowlers are coming through, we finally have a spinner (allbeit he's actually english born to Indian parents which explains why he can turn it) who's bowled Sacchin for his first wicket, and Plunkett & Anderson look good as backup (As Simon Jones who was great in the Ashes has been Injured) - giles may not play again after surgery & Vaughan is also a longterm doubt with his knee

I'm fairly sure Sid said something similar after you won the first test last time. He's only just finished consuming his humble pie Either way It's always great to play you guys

Posted by Light The Fuse on Apr-19-2006 14:21:

lol ur probably right - actually quite happy to see australia have the game taken up to em (but maybe not beaten) in the last series - hope the next is just as entertaining

but yeah - no prisoners this time (cept maybe the 20 million that live over here )
