Watson out nicking off, England reviewed, big noise, he looked disappointed, he would have known he nicked it.
He did know he nicked it. He's only not happy because there's nothing on the bat on hotspot yet it still got overturned. Botham just pointed out what I was screaming at the telly re: hotspot showing a second mark on the ball - it was a very good decision by Dar.
The Aussies are a joke with their whinging about Broad not walking - they do it as much if not more than anyone.
To be fair, the Aussies bowling isn't really a problem for them. I wouldn't see Johnson get in their test side ahead of, say, Starc, Bird, Cummins or (obviously) Harris. It's their batting that's shite at test level. Still fancy England to go down there and wallop them - we won this series without any ofour batsmen (Bell aside) performing at anything like he level they can.
KP runs out Carberry then gets out himself. Trott given out LBW but sucessfully appeals, then not given out to another LBW appeal but Aussie refer, umpires call.
Why on earth are we playing these games? Of course! ££££££££££££££££££££££
really want carberry to perform. been a good player this season until now. still a couple more matchs for him to do it. watching him earlier in the summer I thought he could be an option as opener for the coming ashes tour.

Buttler is unbelievable. What a talent. Surely a place has to be found in the test team. Either Priors long term replacement or the problem number 6 role.

Yes - carberry actually showed the dogged ability to dig in against the new ball on a difficult pitch that would be so valuable. How about bye bye Prior....Cook Carbs Trott KP Bell Root Buttler Broad Swann (another seamer tbc) Anderson. Still think Tremlett or Finn would suit the pitches down under.
No Tremlett for me .. he's a spent force .. Root, despite his 100 does not totally convince me .. go for Carberry not Bairstow, Onions must go and a youngster instead of Tremlett .. who is the youngster? .. I'll need to think on that one

Clarke caught behind 105 (102).
Carberry & Pietersen opening.
This winter is going to be very interesting.....
Or not.
Raining in Birmingham.
Ridiculous to schedule a September series. It's all greed. Mind you, most monies will have to be refunded.
