[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Did Mitch Johnson make the tour after all????

I think Locky's private jet landed

On the weather front, it's looking good once again (a rarity for England):

http://uk.weather.com/weather/10day...k&cm_cat=citypage&cm_ite=weather&cm_pla=10day

Today: 29 degrees - sunny
Tomorrow: 28 degrees - sunny
Saturday: 25 degrees - partly cloudy
Sunday: 27 degrees - mostly sunny
Monday: 29 degrees (30% chance of scattered showers)

That heat is a positive for us.

Made good time from LA.

 

[Timbo]

That heat is a positive for us.

It's effect on the pitch isn't.

Michael Holding's accent is getting stronger. Or is it the rum getting stronger?

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

It's effect on the pitch isn't.

Not to mention batting conditions are perfect from day dot. We could've used some cloud cover to start. Nothin we can do about it

Hoping Ryan Harris hits the ground running. Him and Pattinson will form a good partnership if they're on song.

That's true.

But its only high twenties , hopefully its holds together.

 

[hineyrulz]

Nice start.

 

[BunniesMan]

A fair bit of swing. Need multiple wickets with the new ball.

 

[hineyrulz]

Can't bowl there to this merkin

 

[hineyrulz]

Cook will murder anything near middle.


Root you smarmy merkin!!

 

[umina panther]

Very poor start

 

[aussies1st]

Shane "LBW" Watson does the goods.

 

[Hutty1986]

Cook gone!

 

[umina panther]

Twatto!

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

PISS OFF merkin!!!!!

Poor locky :lol: cook out to Watson must be the ultimate yin/yang

 

[hineyrulz]

Great captaincy Clarkey!!! Onya Twatto!!

 

[BunniesMan]

Beautiful. Clarke clearly loves Watto and vice versa.

And good on Cook for not reviewing that, bet any money Watto would have.

 

[umina panther]

Better opening bowler than batsman

 

[Horrie Is God]

Watto bowls beautifully at Lords..

Bowled an unplayabe spell against the Pakis there..
