*Official* Fifth Test at The Oval

[91Jmay]

Wonder what he would of said about Warne after his first test again India?

An eater who can bowl a bit?

How has Woakes looked? Completely ordinary?

Ok, a few decent balls. Not massively different to a normal Bresnan spell to be honest.

 

[Prince EWS]

How has Woakes looked? Completely ordinary?

Yeah pretty much. His first spell wasn't as bad as his figures suggested and it's a flat wicket at the moment but he hasn't quite looked a Test bowler. He's supposed to be the fifth bowler in this side though and he's looked roughly up to that role.

 

[Broady]

This has a draw written all over it

 

[Spark]

well played, now finally ****ing double it

 

[flibbertyjibber]

How has Woakes looked? Completely ordinary?

Yes. He has got away with it though as at least he looks like he knows what he is doing.

Watson has proved quite a few people wrong.. Was funny to see people criticize him so much recently, the guy is exceptionally talented and will serve Australia for long..

Let's not get carried away; people were saying similar stuff after he scored his last century in 2010. We can't afford to wait another 3 years for his fourth. It's a start in the right direction after a long time in the wrong one, but that's all it is.

This is a really sad day for cricket.

To be fair I don't think anyone actually denies his talent...
