If we get 2 or 3 quick wickets, I say we let Strauss audition for Harmison's place. Could kill 2 birds with one stone there.

Harmison audition for Strauss' place, don't'cha mean?

Well, actually, we could swap them - they've both been equally useless of late.

MSP on, meanwhile. And Smith beaten first ball YET AGAIN!!!!! And some turn next ball, too. Bets on a big haul for him?

Panesar's on after 12 overs. On a pitch that is offering as much help as our quicks could possibly want.

And nearly gets Smith twice in 2 balls :laugh:

Don't bowl half-volleys at Morton. But I can't see him lasting long against MSP, TBH. I'll happily accept a Greigy here, though.

Interestingly, this is likely to be the first time Vaughan has really captained MSP.

Was just in a pub watching the game and left because, tbh, I was bored witless watching absolutely horrible bowlers competing against batsmen that dont appear to have any stomach for a match.

IMO, Harmy will go one of 2 ways during this test - he could continue to bowl someone of the biggest tripe it's been my misfortune to witness for years, pick up a few wickets and regain some confidence or he could do the same, get smashed (as he should) and disappear into oblivion.

47 extras for Windies, 27 already for England, and Plunkers was lucky to get away with those two.

Well TBF Monty did play a big part in the Pakistan Test on this ground this year, but is only because of the dross being bowled (even Sideborrom is going at 4 an over) that he's on this early. And he's been hit for six..well if that is how they'll play him at least they're using those pieces of wood in their hand now...unlike Lord's...
