Grunt.
Why is that ?
Has he been caught chucking again?
Off in a few minutes to have the ticker checked over (routine test only).
So no more excitement today.

He stepped on a ball in the warm up. He did his ankle.
John,
Please.
PLEASE turn on your tele....
NOW!!!
P (17 overs England 68/0)
:rolleyes:
5 mins b4 lunch. Our 1st wicket. 1/112.
Poms won the session for mine.
John,
It's not funny any more.
Please turn your television on.
P
:(

Oh dear!
And I haven't put the TV on once today yet. :(
292/5 not bad so far, and it looks like a first innings contest at least;
However I suspect that will be the Australian opening partnership, unless something happens to the pitch overnight.
P
:rolleyes:
Don't worry, this is Ponting's version of "I could beat you with one arm tied behind my back".
If the Poms don't win this one with all the help they've been given, they're never going to win one.
I think John turned the telly off for way too long.
Im not that sure we will get that :( It will be a nervous couple of hours in front of the TV tonight.
I'm with Silent here, I'm not sure we'll get that either, (without losing one or two wickets!).Quote:

They're bound to have Sky Sports in Singapore surely. That's who Foxtel are getting their covervage from I think.
407 woohoo, I'll now remain calm awaiting the draw.:rolleyes:
HH.
you'd think that with a nickname like pigeon he'd have better footwork.... goose would be a better name...
That would be the draw for the short straw then, to see who gets to bowl to Gillie on the world's most docile pitch?Quote:

Maybe the poms should employ the Aussie tactic of bowling underarm to Gillie:D
HH.
No. Midge has already explained the correct way to deal with such a delivery.Quote:

BTW, I expected such a comment from a Kiwi, not a Pom. :D
Then you get done LBW off an underarm ball :eek:Quote:

Dan.
PS Even when they're not batting against McGRATH the poms are Shyte.
Well Done Eng......
I never turned the TV on once yesterday but today I intend to switch on every 20 minutes. :D :) :D :D :D :D

John turned the telly on. none for 1.
The poms could win this - that pratt Billy Bowden is umpiring :eek:
I liked the idea of an ump who did things differently until I watched him live, then on tele in depth, and realised his ideas about the rules were different too. He's fair, I'll give him that, but he's ******* useless.
Richard
Listen, anybody who slags Billy Bowden, is automatically a friend of mine. :D
Greenie distributed ;)
Craig (who actually thinks BB is a competent umpire but a prat nonetheless) :D
Not quite so Dan!Quote:

One more minute and I'm out of here!
cheers,
P
I put the TV on again :D :D :D
3/118 at lunch
Keep that TV off.
But they cheat and make it rain :rolleyes:
fair dinkum, run out like that !!! Bloody idiot Martin :mad:Quote:

For all the cricket buffs to ponder on while australia go to a comanding lead
There are 11 ways to be given out in a test match what are they?????
Greenie for the one who gets them all or who gets the last one
Useless infomation for the day
Alfred Hitchcock did not have a belly button. It was eliminated when he was sewn up after surgery.
Bowled, caught and lbw.
Thats 11
But there are more you know.
And not everyone understands binary
Very good mick and your right not every one does
However for this arguement lets say thats only 3 and theres 8 more.
Useless infomation for the day
Cockroaches break wind every 15 minutes.
Hit wicket
Handled ball
Run out
Stumped
So that's
Bowled
caught
lbw
Hit wicket
Handled ball
Run out
stumped
