To stop Johnson and any other Aussie quicks getting a head start we will make sure the Trent Bridge groundsman prepares the first few wickets. Using 500 year old Nottinghamshire Red Marl clay it will make the last Trent Bridge wicket look like the WACA in the 1970's.
Once they are shagged out and injured and on the big bird back to Oz decent tracks will then be prepared as the Ashes will be in the bag. |
251 runs off 40 overs
Now that is how you play Test cricket :ausflag: |
Been watching the big bash bazza putting in my mornings on a weekend over here

Nicked this from Cricinfo after Friday's ODI. An interesting stat considering that England has played one dayer's since the start.

One Day Batting Records Still can't work out why Bell did not get the Man-of-the-Match award even if he was in a losing side. It's not like it was a final or anything. :clueless: |

What a finish to the Big Bash final last night.
The Perth Scorchers needed 1 run from the last 3 balls. Brett Lee took wickets with the next 2 balls and was on a hat trick. So down to the last ball, the Scorchers batsman gets bat on ball and they head off for the run. The Sydney Sixers fielder fires a return in to the bowlers end but the fielder over the stumps fails to take the ball cleanly and the Scorchers win. |

I like this line about Michael Clarke "He's captain of Australia, the second most important position behind the prime minister and as such, we need our captain playing well," Lehmann said. Sad to say, but when we have a absolute clown like Tony Abbott running the country, the Australian cricket captain might even be the MOST important man in the country. I come from the opposite side of politics and although I did not agree with their policies and agendas (especially the union bashing), previous Liberal party (Conservative) prime ministers in Malcolm Fraser and John Howard still had my respect. They were both statesman. This bloke Abbott comes across as a fool. The sooner he is gone, the better IMHO Plus he is the federal member for Manly Warringah in Sydney. I was born in the Sutherland Shire and and have followed Cronulla Sutherland RLFC since their beginnings in 1967. Lets just say that Many & Cronulla supporters don't get along too well. :malletfight: Plus Abbott married a Kiwi, is a practicing Tyke and was born in London. Not much to like about him. dancing |
