lol, sarcastic applause from the crowd as point fielder makes a regulation stop.
 
:warne telling how Aussies shud be bowling...he must be restless in the box and wanting to bowl himself

:)))
 
ohhh, slower one from Watto, Strauss chased it and uppish drive to point.

good piece of bowling.
 
United Nations XI doing everything required at the moment.
 
flip-flop on the betting exchanges

The Draw is now the most likely result, but of course the odds will change back in favour to the Aussies if they can get a quick wicket


2.04 The Draw

2.14 Aussies

22.0 England
 
Doherty coming on to bowl.

let's see if the pitch takes any turn.
 
Maybe doherty should play against bangladesh and pakistan. Itll do alot to his confidence
 
MJ dishing out the short stuff now, Cook looks a bit unsettled.
 
:four

lovely shot from Strauss, steps out and cracks it past mid off

and a single to bring up his 50 :14:
 
Good captain's knock from Strauss...then a close shave next ball.
 
ugly sweep from Cook, in the air for a long time, but falls safe.
 
Mitch is bowling way too straight, not exerting any pressure at all.

poor stuff.
 
Probelms here for Australia- our fields are defensive and we are still bloody 150 runs in front.

We should be bowling full at fourth stump line. Our bowling again looks ineffective.
 
looks like a subcontinental pitch......nothing for the bowlers..............looks like a DRAW at the moment
 
nicely punched off the back foot for 3, Strauss going along nicely.
 
England have started solidly and looks like they will end up with a solid total at end of day! Aussies attack has looked poor today! I guess they need another siddle like power surge of wickets!

could be the tone for the series for both bowling outfits!
 
:four

oh yes! Yousufesque cover drive

100 up for the Poms.
 
:four

inside edge! finally an Aussie bowler puts the ball in the right area.
 
1.66 The Draw

2.86 Aussies

16.5 England

fellas, i need that England price to come down to about 10.0 so that i can trade out my £400 exposure and maybe even make a little profit
 
good over from Siddle, had Strauss in a bit of bother there.
 
Mitch has completely lost the plot, bowling round the wkt bouncers now :facepalm:
 
last 5 overs have gone for 31 runs!

Aussies floundering a bit here.
 
that scream from Gower made me jump up!! LOL! That girly scream!!
 
LOL how many times does Ponting have to get involved in endless pitch conferences. If I was one of his bowlers I would shove the ball down his mouth and tell him to let me get on with it.
 
DROPPED!

mishit to midoff, Mitches shells a relatively catch! Strauss gets a life!
 
They need to do something to change the rhythm of the match. Right now England are comfortable. Siddle needs to fire up and send a few towards the Pom heads or bodies just to put the fear of God into them.
 
Aussies should try katich for a few overs just to try and buy a wicket!
 
Punter should give North a few overs, see if he can get the ball to turn away.
 
More positive bowling from the OZ in the past couple of overs. They just need to be patient and stick to their guns and not worry about the scoreboard too much.
 
North brought in, Punter must be reading this thread ;-)
 
Cook trying desperately to get the single for his 50.
