The Ashes, 3rd Test, Edgbaston

[pbsuper]

Doesn't look to good!!!!

And, as predicted, we're in for a delay. For how long, we're not yet sure, but the rain gods have been slapped around the face by the sun which, pleasantly, is beaming down across the ground. Excellent news.

 

[BigBurger]

I reckon the Aussies will do us over here/nailed on draw.

I disagree. I reckon you'll role us again unfortunately. Then again I haven't tipped either of the tests close to what the end result was. I think our selectors are idiots and dropping Hughes was a knee jerk move that will cost us. Even though I rate Watson I think he should have come in for someone else like North or Hussey.

 

[McBain]

Its sunny....why the delay??

 

[pbsuper]

Apparently raining again now.

 

[NickD]

Aussies won the toss and are gonna bat, play starts at 5.00pm

Cheers Goat . Just got in . What I'm upset about is after waiting all fukn day , they will get ju-u-u-ust enough overs in to prevent a refund . Stitch - up . No shabs .
It's no different now than it was at 3 o'clock . Spent £200 on fuk all . Had a laugh tho . Got my photie with Gatt' , again .
Also had a top laugh with the convicts .
I was saying , " who's your fav association footballer ???
To a man , they said Timmy . I pulled the flag out - it was soaked by then - we all made new mates and we all had a few scoops .
It's me birthday tomorrow and I would've been going then , but I've swapped 'em for day 4 Headingley . Hope I get a bit more luck .

P.S. We're looking like pie - throwers here .

Where's BigBurger , and what have you done with him ???

We'll roll you over ???
Have you banged your head mate ???
These are flying here . Luckily the forecast may end up saving us . Never know though . They get 400 1st dig , run thru us 1st knock and have 5 sessions to win the game .

P.S. Nice to have you back lad . ( Wew've had to take it off you's for time . )

Still mad as fuk with them sly bastards , re ; refunds yday . It fukn stinks , but I suppose I'm just a bitter blue , eh ???
As for this game , our bowlers best wake up today , the best day of the year , I'm sure you'll agree - l.c.a.b's bday-; and get out the right side of the bed this a.m.
Otherwise , it's curtains .
I'm not that hopeful , to be honest .
We'll see .

The sun is shining, the covers are off and we will start on time. Need quick wickets today lads!!!

 

[McBain]

How long till the match starts?

So you think you can dance is on here and Mary Murphy deserves a laser beam to the thorax.

Her voice his like sharp, pointy death.

WICKET with the first ball of the day!!!!

Onions to Watson, OUT, got him first ball! Cut back sharply on Watson who was a little late on this good, quick and straight delivery and that's out!

SR Watson lbw b Onions 62 (106b 10x4 0x6) SR: 58.49

 

[pbsuper]

And anotehr one with the second ball of the day....

Onions to Hussey, OUT, he's bowled him! He's bowled him! Hussey has left a straight one and his off stump is pegged back! What a disastrous start for Australia

MEK Hussey b Onions 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
