hahaha, hey John, why don't you guys get a proper keeper :D :D

This is looking good ;)

Didn't cost all that much. Still a lead of 390+ is going to be hard.

I think the English captain overdid it allowing 7 catches to be dropped
perhaps the next match he will make things a bit tougher for you. ;)

England provided stout resistance to begin with, but the Australian attack had left their hopes of saving or even winning the first Ashes Test in tatters when bad light brought day three to a close with the home side at 5 for 156 - still 264 runs shy of victory - at Lord's.

So how much is Brett Lee allowed to 'flex' his elbow these days?

Have to have a chucker's thread running too. Why can't they leave the power with the Umpire. If he says so then it is and no arguements.

You notice that to see straightening of the elbow they used a very high speed camera and even then the results were not conclusive, more of a could be than a is.

I feel the same way about some people I know

I don't think you will beat us at the first test, today, we have substituted one of our team, take a look at this.

His name is weather. :D :D

I'd love to know how many times that has saved you before. Lot's I bet :(

Don't worry Gumby, they'll all be gibbering headcases by the time this tour is over.
Just like Atherton and Hussein were.

Anyway, we probably only need one more session to knock them off. Surely it's possible to get one session in over the next two days?

Hmm, maybe God is an Englishman after all. :D

Perhaps that bowler of yours could take a walk around London for a while, perhaps someone could straighten his arm or at least twist it.

Yes, sorry Midge you're right. A session is more than long enough.
