Still sulking

I can imagine mate... but u must admit that the batsmen screwed up & at 175/8 u dont expect the bowlers to do the batsman's job (usually this situation is common in Indian team )

I would say the momentum is still with the Aussie team.They must play Stuart McGill at Old trafford.The wicket will be flat & turn visciously from 5th session

Mate, I was only having fun. It was a great game. The series would have been all over had Oz won. When your fast bowler top scores you don't deserve to win

I so agree...

With McGrath missing & Gillispee outta form,its hurting Australia badly cos England have been putting on some big scores!!

i think its time for Katich also to take a miss

If pidgeon had been there the poms may have scored fewer runs, but so would Australia !

N so would Sachin Tendulkar

England 444 all out
Ozzie close of play 210/7

need 35 to avoid follow-on

Hope they don't get it....some of the Oz players belong in a retirement home. It seems it is harder to get out of the team than it is to get into any other team.

read one of the most heartening quotes this morning fron Shaun Tait

"Sometimes you just need to hit a batsmen"
&
"Ever since I was young, every couple of games I've hit someone and hurt them so it's always been the way."


I love this bloke already!!!!

Yeah Bundy,nice one.I hope he's picked against a liability like Gillespie.

But guess what? Aussies lose a batsman in Gillespie,going by the series where Australian bowlers are making more runs than their top line batsmen (going India way are they? )

Tait likes blood. Gillespie may still play.

I'll b suprised if he did.I would rather play Stuart McGill in place of him.
But McGrath is gonna b fit to play too...Dunno where Gilli fits in

If McGrath is out they may think the pitch suits Gillespie. He is still a good bowler, just trying too hard.

Gilli has been for me,the unsung hero for most of the success Australian test cricket have achieved.

But this time around,he's in the limelight(darklight) for lack of wickets & the england batsman picking him to demoralise the aus team.

Tait i feel would be under pressure in this crucial test & of what i know of trent bridge,it would be batsman's paradise.
